Recommendation in the Keys

I'm heading to the Keys in October. Am wondering if anyone has a suggestion for a smaller, quaint, quiet place to stay with reasonable rates on Key Largo, Islamorada, or any upper key. I've looked into the Islander but not sure it's what I'm looking for.

Hotel/ Motel on Islamorada

There is a hotel/ motel on Islamorada, close to Morada Bay, that's kind of a vintage place, always gets good reviews. Can't remember the name of it, though. Can anyone help me out?

I'm also in sales, and once a Manager told me that the main reason he hired me was because I left him a message either every day or every other day expressing my interest in the position. I thought at the time it was too much and my feeling was that I didn't have anything to lose by calling that oft...

personally, i prefer to fly to miami or Ft. lauderdale, drive via card sound road. Have lunch at Snappers on Key Largo. Continue driving, stopping when/ where the moment hits. Definitely need to stop and chat with people fishing on the bridges. Usually they're very colorful. I stayed at the Southern...

Thx for the help. I do have those sites, but the GCC was always the best. Hopefully I'll be around here more in the future. Life gets in the way sometimes!

COBO

it's been a while since I've been here. Is COBO gone? I was trying today to access the chords archive and was disappointed. Any help would be appreciated, and if someone saved it, that would be even better!

Fishing Charter in Key West

Hey, all. Due to some recommendations on this forum, I've booked at the Southern Cross Motel, on the courtyard. I now need a good charter captain, reasonable priced, who can handle 6-8 people. I can probably find one myself, but word of mouth, especially from this forum, is so much more reliable. An...

I'm an occasional poster, but had to chime in on this one. My close brother died of an OD in 2004. Very sudden, shocking, but not completely unexpected. I think soulless monster is a bit harsh, but as I've grown older and had experience with people with drug addiction, I've found my attitude has tem...
