Immerse Yourself in Stephen King's
Frighteningly Good Literary Tourism Experience

The Colony invites Stephen King fans to travel to the destination to explore the setting for King's latest novel, Duma Key.  Set on a fictional island off the coast of Sarasota, Duma Key includes many references to real places and attractions within the destination of Sarasota and Her Islands - including The Colony (which serves as the location for a doubles match played by several characters from the book).

King's first novel set in Florida, Duma Key is located on a fictitious barrier island linked by a drawbridge to the south end of Casey Key, where King has owned a home for the last few years and is a part-time resident.  King fans visiting Sarasota can walk in the footsteps of Edgar Freemantle, King's protagonist.
