Re: Need a Rental Near Marathon
Vrbo is going to be the best option. Dont limit yourself to just marathon, consider the nearby islands farther south as well. Big pine, little torch, but Dont go more north then marathon if you Can help it, you get farther away from grocery stores and other things to do. Looks like you got a busy sched anyways, but the convience of good food and shopping makes a big difference.

Re: Need a Rental Near Marathon
Privat home rentals for 2 days might be rare, but the Hawk's resort at Duck key has some nice townhomes....

Re: Need a Rental Near Marathon
VRBO for sure, but I dont think there are many houses down there you can rent for less than a week.

Re: Need a Rental Near Marathon
Thanks for all the responses everyone. Yes, its a law that people can not rent to customers for less than 7 days. Fortunatley like Sacha58 said, they had nice homes available for 3 nights at Hawks Cay and thats where i ended up staying. Looks like the weather is really blown out right now and the forecast doesnt look too good for the weekend. I hope it calms down enough so we can get out and get some fish!

Your quote from the link is correct, however in order to mitigate the 28 day minimum the property owner has to have a rental license. Again, very few have these licenses and even fewer have the correct business tax license. The only other way to circumvent the 28 day minimum is if the property owner contractually rents shorter than 28 days and does not rent again for 28 days, using up the entire month. The civil code was enacted because family neighborhoods were turning into drunken short term rentals. You would understand the complaints if you had Panama City Beach type of partying across the canal in your back yard every night Vrbo is ripe with illegal rentals.
