Campbell Suite in Key West | House in Key West
1 Bedroom House in Historic Seaport, Key West
Let your rendezvous with paradise begin at the Campbell Courtyard compound in the heart of Old Town Key West. Campbell Suite, a second & third floor condo with one bedroom and 1 baths, is the perfect place to anchor your vacation. It starts with the pale-yellow stucco building that houses this suite and others. The three-story building was constructed in 1910 for Dr. J. G. Campbell, a surgeon dentist specializing in gold crowns, bridges, and plate work.
Locals talk of how the structure was used as a spy headquarters during WWII but, of course, no records seem to exist to confirm that. The front staircase leads up one flight from Fleming, one of the most historic streets in KW. The back staircase overlooks and leads down to one of the most delightful, secluded, and quiet courtyards and pools in town. And if that's not enough, you are only two blocks from the world-famous Duval Street, home to everything exciting, historic, funky, and weird about this one-of-a-kind tropical island community.Up one flight of stairs, the solid front door to the condo swings into an open floor plan flooded with ambient light. The wall to the right has a sliding glass door that opens to a small, covered balcony with two chairs and side table. Sitting here is a tree-house-like experience. Relax. View blue skies, rooftops, and large areas of swaying palms. If you've come to Key West for outdoor living, this might be your go-to spot for morning coffee or happy hour drinks. As is a common practice where space is at a premium and the weather temperate, the washer and dryer are located, conveniently, in a small closet to the right of the balcony seating area. Back inside, a couch and chair offer a cozy setting for conversation while a ceiling fan whirrs above, gently moving air and adding a certain Bogie & Becall ambiance to the area. A flatscreen smart TV is located here for viewing from the roomy couch. In addition to regular cable channels, it offers streaming apps you can use if you have account(s). It's a great spot for catching up on some vintage movies filmed in the Keys like Beneath the Twelve Mile Reef (1954) or binge-watching a Keys TV series like Bloodline (2015-2017). Of course, there's high speed wireless internet, and central AC. A round table with two chairs offers a spot for eating or mapping out sightseeing destinations for the day. On the opposite wall is a book cabinet with reading material and a basket of beach towels for your inevitable trips to the water's edge. A generous-sized kitchen offers everything you'd need for preparing a four-course meal. Or if your style runs more toward warming leftovers from some luscious restaurant meal, that's a snap, too. A large window over the sink is the visual center of the kitchen, pairing beautifully with the recessed spot lighting, a double sink, stainless appliances, a long prep counter, and copious wooden cabinets above and below. Across from the kitchen is the convenient and nicely appointed guest half bath. And beside that, a dramatic spiral staircase leads up to the bedroom level. At the top, the bedroom offers a comfy king bed, a full bath, a closet that accommodates hanging and folded items, and a full-length mirror. Like the living-room balcony below, the windows in this space allow views of lovely foliage swaying in tropical breezes. A chest of many drawers provides even more space for your travel accouterments, while an armchair with lamp makes a spot for reading or maybe just a quick sit-down to put on your Crocs or flip flops. Another smart TV is wall mounted and ready for your use. If you like to swim or are a sun worshiper, you still haven't explored the best part of this rental: the courtyard and pool. The pool, which is for the exclusive use of Campbell Courtyard guests, is larger than your typical Key West dipping pool. Rather, it is temperature controlled and generously sized by Key West standards. The pool/deck area is ringed with a white picket fence and plenty of foliage to create beauty, privacy, and the kind of tranquil peace of mind only nature can provide. Chaise lounges and chairs sit invitingly right next to the pool. Or if shade is more appealing, claim your spot under the market-umbrella seating area.The whole set up at Campbell Courtyard is alluring but there's more-a whole storied island awaiting your exploration: the emerald water of the Atlantic and of the Gulf of Mexico, beaches, conch-style houses, Civil War forts, museums, famous hangouts like Sloppy Joe's, Elvis look-alikes, a new waterfront park, and scary sharks at the Aquarium. From your central location on Fleming Street, most things are easily accessible by foot or bike or the free bus service called the Duval Loop. For example, the island's main artery-Duval Street, where you'll find shopping of all sorts, art galleries, tours, open-air restaurants, bars, and much more-is less than two blocks away. Or a few blocks in another direction you'll find the Historic Seaport with more restaurants, tall-ship sunset sails, more watersports opportunities than you could possibly take advantage of, and waterfront restaurants of varying degrees of informality. Set your timer so you don't miss the nightly sunset celebration at Mallory Square where visitors and locals alike gather to applaud as the sun slips below the horizon.To know what's going on from day to day, you can check out Historic Hideaways' informative Area Guide/Events page at http://www.historichideaways.com/key-west-events/.
