Comfortable space with Convenient location and parking

Well maintained, affordable and comfortable with designated parking, conveniently located in sight of Annie’s, a beloved spot frequented by locals for breakfast and lunch that additionally boasts a full bar. Well worth the 23 steps to get upstairs and enjoy the porch swing and the laid back vibe of Cedar Key.

From the balcony we could see the spoonbills in the waterway across the street. Thought they were flamingos but were corrected by the locals. Quiet area, easy to find and close to downtown. Very enjoyable.

Only negative were the number of stairs to get up there to the unit. And I could never get the air handler to shut off none of which are deal breakers.

Nature Coast it is.

Positives; great location, quite, Negative backed up tub, was musty smelling could use an air freshener. Two screens up front were torn couldn’t open them, the coffee table needs to be repainted with a high gloss so it can be wiped down properly. All in all was a fun spot for quiet nature. The hosts were very prompt in responding to our concerns, thanks.

Perfect, cozy, little getaway spot!

Property was as described and we were pleasantly surprised by how well maintained and clean it was. Great value for the price. Wonderful location- super close to downtown, golf cart accessible, across from a fantastic breakfast restaurant. Ample parking. Our unit shared a balcony with our neighbors but they were a great group of people. We really enjoyed our stay.

Great stay in great location

House had everything we needed for our trip! Cooked breakfast and lunch each day. Loved this affordable house to stay while visiting for the week. Safe area. Locals so friendly! Walked the short distance downtown for dinner each night (or across the street for a drink and/ or breakfast/lunch). Many restaurants were closed because of storm last fall, but hoping they rebuild soon. Love this sweet town!!

We were only able to get away for one night but really enjoyed the comfortable accommodations at Blue Heron. The location was nice, fairly quiet and we felt completely safe. Had we been staying longer we would have found everything we needed in the kitchen to cook a full meal. We hope to be returning for a longer stay soon.
