Unit was so small two people had difficulty getting in.Size of unit was never indicated thru Expedia.Was totally dissatisfied with this transaction.Expressed my dissatisfaction with personnel there,by saying it was worst experience I’d had in many years of travel in US and abroad.

Unique awesome place to stay! The tiny house we stayed in was clean and the bed was larger than expected. Late check in but they made it easy. Map they gave us at check in was perfect and the property was kept up very nice.

The room was a disaster, we ended up not staying at all because it was a loft with a ladder and completely clastrophobic. This listing was misleading and should have said it was a loft you have to climb to sleep. I just had two knee surgeries so a ladder is not feasible for me and I couldn't get my money back from Expedia either. So now I won't do business with Expedia anymore either!

Excellent Spot to Bird Watch
Stayed in the Azula container home. The space was incredible with a deck right on the water. Air conditioning was effective. Kitchen includes a sink, microwave, 4 cup coffee pot, full size fridge, and an induction hot plate with 1 pan, and there's a standard campsite grill outside for use also. Kitchen does lack a little on utensils. Sofa bed has a support bar running down the middle side to side and front to back so it can be hard to sleep on as a normal bed. Bring a roll up or foam pad to lay on top and it'll be perfect. I used a beach float. Grounds are nice and dog friendly, lots of community spaces and equipment rentals. Definitely worth the bird watching views alone.

Walking distance to the best bar on the planet... Lowkey Tiki bar. Great place to chill, clean, kind people, quiet, property is right on the water and they have a lovely doc, fire pit, blow up slides for the kids to play on, horse shoes... just awesome location! We biked to downtown Cedar Key without a problem and to the Lowkey Tiki bar and Annie's restaurant.

Well Done Camptel - Thank you for Your close attention to the finer details such as cotton sheets, remote control for AC & hot water all Which exceeded the Sir Francis Drake hotel.

Fantastic Fun!
We stayed in the glamping tent and it was wonderful! There is heat and cooling (we needed both) and ready made coffee every morning in the clubhouse. We rented kayaks ant electric bikes. Both were only 25$.... a steal! Housekeeping was polite and attentive, asking about extra towels. Staff go out of their way to make sure your experience at Camptel is exceptional... which it was! Thanks Caesar and staff... we will be back.

Very unique property! Lots of choices and variety on rooms. Tiny House, Containter Home, tent or bring your own camper/RV. Management was friendly, facility clean and a fishing pier. The visitors were all very friendly and happy group. I think that speaks volumes for this facility. A definite unique must stay.

Teeny tiny
Our place was the smallest in the camp I believe the Conestoga. It was very clean everyone nice but it took forever to get hot water so we didn’t dare take a shower. Although you could use the bathhouse. The door would not lock and a mirror Would have been nice. Would stay again but in a larger unit

Too hip for me
My first stay in a “tiny home”, a.k.a. glorified camper, didn’t go well. The bed was a king, but in a loft where the head clearance was about 2’. The ladder leading up to it was secure, but on wheels, and wiggled around... I can see where young adults would think this was cool, but this 50-yr. old didn’t dig it. I ended up having a claustrophobic attack and slept on the sofa, which was hard-as-a-rock foam. I also thought we would be right by the water, but we were on a campsite right in the middle of the campground, next to the common showers. The shore was packed with other campers, couldn’t even see it. No coffee or coffee maker in he room, one in a common kitchen next to the showers, but it was make-your-own... if all this cost $50 or under, I would chalk it up to a funny experience, but it was too expensive for what it was.
