"Really enjoyed the cottage! Great natural light from windows with living room and bedroom water views. Really is perfect for a couple and the trundle bed (not used) would add the kids option if desired with playground within view of balcony. Next time I’ll use kayaks provided. Bed was comfortable and tv had all you could ever need. AC’s were perfect with cool air all night, especially if you pick side where air flows right on to the bed. Very nicely stocked! Dollar General is only real “grocery” store so hit that on the way in for snacks, water, etc. Steamers seafood literally 2 blocks straight down from cottage for fresh seafood options. It’s cool to have the stilt cottage where everyone else is Condo’s (share walls). Really enjoyed the relaxing visit and management is very responsive and helpful!"

"This precious cottage was exactly what we were looking for! I don’t need lavish, I need cozy and comfortable! This was not only that! It was in inviting and refreshing! My son and I enjoy nature and this place did not disappoint! It was close enough to convenience. Yet tucked away enough to enjoy the peace and quiet of nature. We had ospreys flying overhead singing and showing their beautiful markings. Several Rosetta spoonbills around and lots of Spanish moss covered trees! We had lots of activities planned during our stay and coming back to this cute haven was so relaxing! The porch was the perfect spot to have coffee at sunrise and a cocktail at sunset. The little shark beach was so cute and the resident pod of dolphins made for the best entertainment! Rented a kayak to see them up close! Had I known how perfect this key would be, we would have spent all of our time there, no need for any other activities lol. The cottage was clean and very cool! Joi was so sweet and easily accessible)yet we didn’t need anything), and checked on us to make sure everything was to our liking! We will definitely be back time and time again! Thank you Joi and Cedar key for making our memories so special!"
"Fantastic property on the edge of a tidal salt flat. There were dolphins swimming right out in front of the property. Every morning we slipped our coffee, watching the different shore birds like pelicans, spoon bills, and ibis to name a few. The town of Cedar Key has done a lot to rebuild and everyone is very welcoming. There are natural springs 30 to 40 minute drive that are worth checking out. One surprise was how much we enjoyed the lower Suwanee wildlife refuge. Plenty of alligators. The house is lovely and very unique. Thank you for a great stay."
Enjoy the best of Cedar Key with the walkable waterfront
