The location was absolutely beautiful. We definitely loved the "small country town on an island" feel. The house was just what we needed. The view was amazing, and the sunsets were truly beautiful. Cedar Key is a hidden gem. The trout fishing right on the beach past the water breaks was awesome. I caught tons of keepers and several over slot as well.

The view was amazing and the sheets were super soft. It’s close enough to town to ride your bike. Our AC did go out on our last night but they had it fixed in no time.

Beautiful place on the water

This is a wonderful, open space that allows dogs and is very well appointed. The wrap around porch with the padded rocking chairs was a favorite place for our crew to hang out. Comfortable beds and an unmatched view. You can’t beat it. Hosts were great!

Beachside

Enjoyed our stay. House has a great front deck overlooking the gulf. Great for morning sunrise coffee. Plenty of places to walk/explore. Definitely a good idea to rent a golf cart to make it easier to find parking downtown and explore the island. Making a visit to the Tiki Bar on 24 is a must.

Amazing, will come back

We just stayed at the most charming beachfront property in Cedar Key, and it was a dream come true! From sipping coffee on the porch while watching dolphins play to falling asleep to the soothing sound of waves, every moment was magical. The décor was cozy, the views were breathtaking, and the sunset? Absolutely unforgettable. If you're looking for a slice of coastal heaven, this is the place to be! Can't wait to come back!

Great wind down vacay!

A long weekend wind down after a Disney World trip was just what was needed. It was our daughter and son-in-law’s first time in Cedar Key. They stated that they definitely want a repeat. The house was equipped with everything that our family needed for our stay. The little beach at high tide was perfect for the grands. They even set up a lemonade stand with great success!

Lovely, relaxing spot

We had a fun few days kicking around town. Made last minute reservations so our selection was limited and this property accepted our two small dogs. House was very comfortable with a great view. A few roaches in the kitchen, but fully equipped with everything you need. Neighborhood is quiet and the Airport Road is great for dog walking. Definitely recommend.

Very nice, quiet spot with excellent views

Enjoyed our 4-night stay in this house. Great views and nice, secluded spot and still close to town. The only complaint we had was we could tell pets are allowed when we walked in because of the odor, nothing a few air fresheners couldn't handle though. Also, there's no dishwasher, which isn't mentioned in the listing, so fair warning if that is high on your list of must haves.

Everything was great but could have been a little cleaner, but not dirty or anything if that makes sense. The septic tank seemed to be full and overflowed from the lid into the front yard when showering and was a little stinky at times. Other than that, it was great and such a great location with awesome views
