Seaside Paradise at Cedar Key Kayaks/Paddle Board

EdwardRating, 5 stars3 days ago
I came to Cedar Key to fish from my kayak, which I did every day. The area is quite beautiful. I expored two of the islands in the Gulf of Mexico. They are a ways offshore so I had to make sure that it wasn't too windy or rough. The islands are uninhabited and in their natural state. I saw manatees, dolphins, eagles, ospreys and numerous shore birds including herons, ibises, spoonbills, pelicans, terns and gulls. I also saw a racoon foraging on an oyster bar. I did some exploring in the waterways adjacent to cedar key. They are very shallow so I had to check the tide chart to make sure there would be enough water. I did catch some nice fish, which I grilled over charcoal. The deck was a beautiful place to relax on and eat supper on. There are hundreds of birds emerging from the mangroves in the evening and flying to their roosting areas. Ken and Marylee were very responsive to any questions that I had. The condo was well appointed and all the appliances worked well.

Cedar Key Condo: Relax with Confidence

TammyRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Lori’s place is a nice, quiet Airbnb set off a beautiful tributary off the Gulf. It’s clean and safe, which is my first priority. The kitchen is well stocked for home-cooked meals, and bathrooms have plenty of towels and hot water. Good restaurants are within walking distance. I would certainly stay here again.

Overall this was a great experience.

Such a beautiful place to stay in Crystal River. The nature sounds are overwhelming and so peaceful. The mangroves are such a beautiful site. We were lucky and got visited by a great blue heron in the morning that hung out with us on the dock if you’re a lover of the Florida nature this is a great place to stay.Very close to the manatee tours

Spacious Home with Water Views

AmyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Ashley’s house was lovely! Great natural light. Cool bead board paneling. Very cool wood porch. The artist in me just loved it. The layout in interesting. I imagine it was added onto once or twice. There are two upstairs bedrooms. If you’re up in one bedroom you have to go downstairs and then back up another set of stairs to get to the other bedroom. The back porch really has a great view and we did watch the sunrise there most days. Cemetery Point Park was a nice walk. The beach there was pretty brackish though and we only swam in it once. The public beach was a short drive and we went there most days. It has a playground right on the beach which was AWESOME for our kids. We also got to see hundreds of horse shoe crabs on that beach. (Strange critters but harmless.) There are shells or something on the bottom that are easy to scrape your feet on. Also, if you walk out much deeper than your knees the bottom is squishy mud. Probably normal for beaches in this part of Florida.

RV Lot-Gulf Front Sunset View, Horseshoe Beach, FL

AllisonRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Such a gem! We have never been to Horseshoe Beach but we had such an amazing weekend! The rv lot was surrounded my water and beautiful. The owners were so nice! We had such a great time. We wished we could have stayed longer! My kids fished and caught them right off the seawall. The whole community was so sweet to us! We are already looking at when we are coming back! 10/10 recommend this! If you are looking to get away and relax in privacy, this is for you!

Pirates Cove Coastal Cottages - Cottage #6

MichaelRating, 5 stars1 month ago
What a great place and wonderful hosts. Lisa and Brian were very welcoming and helpful. Lots of recommendations for restaurants and best places for sunsets. Our cabin was much bigger than I expected and very clean and comfortable. The screened in area in the back looked out on the water and Cedar Key is a bird paradise. We found some good restaurants and the Lowkey Hideaway and Tiki Bar was a riot. Full of locals, beautiful sunset, funky atmosphere, bar cat and great live music. We truly enjoyed our stay and would happily go back.

Riverside Cozy Treehouse, Outdoor Movie & Firepit

VictoriaRating, 5 stars3 days ago
Super cute, cozy place to stay! We loved the little bedroom the most, as it felt like a romantic little treehouse. The whole place is bright and inviting, as well. Well stocked, super comfortable beds, and not too far from all the Crystal River activities while remaining fairly private. The peacocks were a bit noisy night and day, and the noseeum bugs can get you so bring bug spray and a white noise machine if those things bother you. Overall a wonderful stay!

Great accommodations and great location. Room was super clean and had all you need. Nice balcony to sit and look over the beach area, and within walking distance to everything. Only recommendation is to provide clearer instructions to using the key pad if you have a late check in. Would definitely stay there again!

Your guide to Cedar Key

All About Cedar Key

Cedar Key is a tiny island city off the west coast of Florida with a population that, at last count, stood under 800. The key spans just 2.1 square miles, with less than one of those miles made up of land. The result: an island community where everything is within walking distance.

Despite its size, Cedar Key is a massive player in Florida’s fishing industry, producing 95 percent of the state’s clams. That means that you can get them fresh from the Gulf here, served up in bowls of creamy clam chowder or fried and garnished with wedges of lemon. Down on Dock Street, you can eat them at restaurants on tall wooden stilts, hovering over the water like vigilant sandpipers.

If you prefer to catch your dinner, there’s a public pier at the south end of town where you can fish for black drum, redfish, and sheepshead in the winter — just watch out for pelicans looking for a free meal.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Cedar Key

Cedar Key is pleasant in winter, hot and humid in summer, and has oysters and clams on the menu year-round. Even in July, when temperatures are at their hottest, afternoon thunderstorms and breezes off the Gulf work together to keep things pleasant. June through November is hurricane season, which can sometimes (but not often) bring on tropical storms. In late October, there’s a seafood festival that celebrates the village’s fishing heritage with live music, arts and crafts, and plenty of seafood. Mid to late March is the best time to spot dolphins and horseshoe crabs off the shore near Cedar Key condo rentals. The Cedar Key Arts Festival takes place around this time as well, filling 2nd Street with fine art from the key and beyond.


Top things to do in Cedar Key

Cedar Key Museum State Park

Cedar Key Museum State Park offers a peek into the vast history the area has seen and survived — civil conflict, railroad expansion, and even nearly getting taken out by a hurricane in the late 1800s. You can check out all of the relics and home goods preserved during your visit and learn how this small island city became the lovely beach getaway it is today.

Atsena Otie Key

When Cedar Key was first established, it was built on Atsena Otie Key, a barrier island three miles away from the town’s current location. While little remains of the settlement today, it’s a great, secluded place to hike or scan for birds among the ruins.

Kayak Fishing

A kayak, a pole, and a bit of shrimp bait are all you need to jump in on Cedar Key’s fishing scene. With patience and luck, you can reel in everything from redfish to speckled trout. Both kayaks and gear rentals are available at the Cedar Key Fishing Pier.
