Waterfront stilt cottage on the open Gulf of Mexico will make you feel like you're on a houseboat!
10/10 Excellent
"Great place to sit and enjoy the waterfront view (birds, boats and dolphins), with an exceptional angle for seeing summer sunrises. Check-in was easy, and the kitchen well stocked with essential cooking tools. Lots of space inside to lounge and read when not enjoying the sights from the deck. We would come back for sure."
Endless Gulf views from this 2 bedroom waterfront townhome
10/10 Excellent
"The condo was lovely and had everything we needed. There were two balconies where I saw dolphins every day. My bed was comfortable and there were plenty of pillows. The kitchen had a dishwasher which was nice. They had many spices to use. We were right by the beach. I felt safe every day and the community was kind and welcoming. I highly recommend "
"The cottage was well-kept. However, we were unable to get an internet connection in order to use the TV. We called our host, Connie, and she worked to get our connection. When she was unable to do so, she was able to assign us to another cottage. That cottage was well-kept - Paddlers Cottage. The grounds were well kept. We did not use the pool or the grill. But everything was very nice. If in the area, I would recommend the location!"
"We never got to see this property thanks to VACASA's terrible customer service. 45 minutes on hold while trying to locate the property. 35 minutes of texting back and forth until they finally provided the owners contact info. She was very nice and apologetic. But we were over it and tired and booked a hotel with EXPEDIA and got a good night's sleep. "
"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."
Riverfront bunkhouse with private W/D, grill, & canoe
6/10 Okay
"We had a nice stay overall and tried to enjoy the beautiful weather and scenic surroundings. The canoe experience was definitely a highlight—we really enjoyed paddling down the river and taking in the peaceful nature around us.
That said, there were a few things that could be improved. The directions provided through Expedia were inaccurate, and Google Maps led us to the wrong place entirely, which made getting there quite frustrating. The photos online seem to be from when the house was newly built; in reality, much of the property felt quite old and worn down.
Inside, there were barely any utensils—just a few plastic knives and plates—which made it hard to prepare or enjoy meals properly. We also found something that looked like a moth larvae on one of the beds when we arrived. While it didn’t bother me personally and I simply took it outside, I understand it might concern others (though it’s not entirely surprising given the house is in the middle of the woods).
Additionally, the front door didn’t seal properly and was difficult to close, which was a bit of a pain—especially at night or anytime we were leaving the house.
With a few updates and better communication, this could be a much more enjoyable experience for future guests."
