Jul 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing Property! This spacious home is the perfect getaway for a couple or a group of friends with three bedrooms, three king size beds, and two baths. It is pet friendly and the front and back yards are fenced. It is a quiet retreat with a large, screened lanai with seating, TV, and outdoor dining table. The home is well equipped with anything you may need and the hosts are very responsive. It is a short drive to the downtown area where you can find restaurants, bars, and shopping. I highly recommend Bonish Studio for cocktails. They have an amazing selection. Annie's is not downtown, but worth the drive for breakfast or lunch. We enjoyed a BLT and Chef Salad. I can't wait to return! ![Master Bedroom](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e83517f4-f056-45d7-b322-ffdfffb0113e-1751549810857.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6cf13999-5708-4ef4-9972-ddaf9b840569-1751670895130.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/49dd0338-be66-4828-b253-389bd2fdacae-1751670914654.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/dac4cb8c-e70a-4c1f-8240-7b449091e740-1751670944653.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Darla S. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rose W. Aug 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice pet friendly house My husband and I weren’t able to fully enjoy our intended stay at this property because we had to evacuate after one night due to Hurricane Debby. But, we did enjoy the house which was very clean, well furnished, and had lots of room. The management company was wonderful to work with and very responsive to our inquiries, as well as making us aware of the evacuation plan. We really appreciated that very much! We also enjoyed that it was pet friendly as we have two young Pugs. The only complaint we had was the condition of the yard (both front and back) which was overgrown and needed maintenance to make it accessible and safe. The fence in the back yard had several loose boards that need repairing. Hopefully this will be addressed, as other than that, the house is perfect! We hope to get back soon to finish our stay as we LOVE Cedar Key and try to visit at least once a year. Rose and Wayne Williams ##### Rose W.
