All this and only a minute away from the natural beauty of the bayside of Cedar Key where the saltwater mangroves stretch literally for miles and miles providing shelter for myriad of wildlife and endless kayaking opportunities for our guests.

Here you can get up close with our wildlife inhabitants.

***IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to Hurricane Helene, the dock is currently out of order. We are assessing the situation and will provide a repair timeline as soon as we have more information. ***

There is a communal pool that is heated and also an elevator for access. The grounds are well kept and offer grills, picnic tables, a fire pit a nature trail that ends with a fishing pier on the channel. On the trail is a dock for launching kayaks and fish cleaning sink.

Great quiet location

Was looking for a relaxing week away from all the tourists. Found a perfect location here! Property has a nice pool and is just across the street from a nice beach. Unit was clean and as advertised. Communication with the owners/management company was quick, courteous and responsive. Would definitely consider a return trip!

Pressure release retreat

Excellent view of the marsh land and tidal water. Dark sky’s for good start watching. Walking distance to great fresh seafood restaurants and dock that boats launch from. This is old Florida at its best. No chain retails or restaurants on island. All local owned with their own original vibe. We would rent this unit again.
