Hemingway House Key West

I visited the Hemingway House on Whitehead Street in Key West the other day. It's a great tour of a remarkably well preserved house. Hemingway spent about a decade on and off in Key West and wrote "To have and to have not" while living here.

Pictured is Hemingway's room where he wrote every day.



Hemingway owned a polydactyl cat and descendants of this cat currently live in the house. Many have 6 or 7 toes. 




 You can see the cats have made themselves quite comfortable!!



The house has a lovely airy veranda wrapping itself all the way around the upstairs.

If you ever visit Key West, the Hemingway House is a must see.......and if you plan on getting married in Key West you can always consider the Hemingway House as a venue!
