Ozello Waterfront Cabaña - minutes from the Gulf!

EdmundRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We stayed during the cold off season and felt like we had the whole water way to ourselves. My kids had their boat and loved fishing and exploring the mangroves and backwater. It was definitely a vacation they won’t forget. This place is so relaxing I was sad to leave. Should have stayed another day but it was booked. We had crazy rain storm when we were checking out and our host told us no rush by check out time. Just a great laidback atmosphere, we will be back!!

1BR House

TimothyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This is the third time we have stayed with Jim and Wendy and enjoy everything about this property. It is in a quite residential part of Crystal River but is close to everything we want to do. We usually eat in half of the nights and go out for fish the others. We spent 10 days with Jim and Wendy this year and are already planning to return next year.

Pool Table Home 10 Min from WEC | Dogs Stay Free!

JuliaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had a wonderful time in Ocala at Libby and Carlos. The house was perfect, actually as expected from the pictures. Backyard was great for our dog cass. She had so much fun running and playing. We sat by the fire pit and grilled steaks and watched tv in front of the beautiful fireplace. The beds were so comfortable and the bathroom… it has a seemingly 1980s heat lamp in the ceiling in front of the shower. Needless to say I will be purchasing one of these in my next home. What a genius invention! Everything in Ocala is a short drive from this Airbnb and the hosts were very responsive and clear with all instructions. It was great staying at their wonderful home. We will see if this Airbnb is available next time we come back to Ocala!

Old Homosassa Water Front, Ice Machine & Kayaks

SarahRating, 5 stars4 months ago
My family and I enjoyed our stay here. A couple things to note. If you’re staying for a longer period (or have more people), you will need to bring more toilet paper and paper towels with you. Besides that, this home had all the amenities we needed. Including kayaks, a canoe and a grill. You can fish off the dock and she had some good board games. Very spacious home for our family of 6.

Cheerful 2 bedroom. Plenty of parking and privacy.

BarbaraRating, 5 stars7 months ago
Deborah was a great host. We had to come back to the area to take care of some business. The place was really pleasant and easy to stay at. We were right where we wanted to be and she was very accomodating to some of our special needs. It was so comfortable and enjoyable to be there, we definately are planning to go back to stay. The location was convenient to everything, yet "out in the country". Just a pleasant place to be!

DeanRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Samantha's rental was ideal for our group of seven golfers from the Clearwater area! We had plenty of room to gather and relax each evening. Sleeping arrangements were great. The place was comfortable and clean. But most of all, Samantha went out of her way to accommodate date changes due to the recent hurricanes...something she was not required to do! She was extremely understanding and flexible toward our issues...A great host!

Rainbow River getaway - kayaks, tubes & golf cart

BoRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We enjoyed our stay, getting a chance to use the golf cart and kayaks. The private park is really nice and Rainbow River is quite beautiful. The hosts are very responsive, pretty much always answering questions within a few minutes, and willing to go the extra mile for you. While the house is an older mobile home, there have clearly been furniture and appliance updates that the hosts continue to make, so most should feel perfectly comfortable staying here. For future guests that want to use the kayaks, don't miss the seats you can install like we did at first.

Modern River Cabin #5

StephanieRating, 5 stars7 months ago
Thai was perfect stay for my friend and our two boys. It was large enough for us, comfortable and clean. They enjoyed fishing from dock but most importantly was the convenience to river and springs.. We could bring our kayaks or rent them. We could put in at cabin (which makes for a nice paddle) or the down rd at boat ramp with easy access to seven sisters springs and the “crack”. The fishing was excellent in river and scenery was beautiful. We will definitely be back.

Tin Roof Cabin at The Cove

ChristineRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We wanted to explore the Inverness area and found this great Airbnb. The location was just out of town and off a main road but very quiet. Yes the restaurant was busy with people coming and going but by 10pm it was quiet. Loved the decor and the great touches. You can tell the owners love to bring spaces to life. Being right at the docks was great to catch a pontoon ride on the lake. Wish we could have stayed longer but we will be back!

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.
