Enjoy a campervan experience near Geiger Key Marina. There is only one double bed suitable for the solo traveler or couples looking for a different experience from the common hotel stay.

If you choose to explore, you will find yourself at Geiger Key, an approximate 30-minute drive from the city center of Key West.
