The Tree House - amazing unobstructed view of the Gulf of Mexico from your deck!

Enjoy an unobstructed view of the Gulf of Mexico from your front porch. Sit on the large, shaded porch any time of day and watch the varied and vibrant wildlife frolic- Ospreys dive-bombing for fish while eagles try to steal them! Pods of dolphins patrol the waters for mullet. The Treehouse is a spacious two-bedroom stilt home in the heart of Cedar Key, located just an hour west of Gainesville and situated in the center of Florida's Nature Coast. It offers nature lovers unique bird watching with soaring eagles, ospreys, and migrating birds galore. It's a fishing paradise for fishermen of Redfish, Trout, Drum, and much more. Enjoy Robinson Crusoe vibes and an amazing, extremely relaxing location. The large screened-in front porch, built around two oak trees. A boat dock out back on the canal allows fisherman to keep their boats in the water (tidal). Catch fish and crabs for dinner right off your own dock. When the sun is setting, step out on the covered front deck to feel the breeze and enjoy the spectacular sunset view over the beautiful Gulf. You may see a school of dolphins cavorting in the cove right in front of you or even the swirl of a drum close enough to make you want to throw a line out. Cedar Key also offers outstanding local cuisine in its many casual dining restaurants. The natural beauty of Cedar Key and its slow pace allows visitors to feel what old Florida must have been like years ago, allowing for very restful vacations. Whether you want to relax, sit and read a book, kayak, fish, or just enjoy the diverse wildlife, the Treehouse is the perfect location. Everything in this "Old Florida" style fishing and clamming village is within easy close and biking distance. From The Treehouse, the walk to town and the city's beach is a leisurely 20 minutes along picturesque streets. Or in the other direction is a 15-minute walk to the small airport beloved by daily exercise walkers and pilots alike. The City Park offers a nice beach with a pavilion, outdoor showers, and all the necessary facilities to enjoy a pleasant Gulf side afternoon. Stroll around town and watch the crabbers checking their traps, fishermen bringing in their catch, and dolphins jumping from the water. Or take one of the many excursions offered by boat Captains off Dock Street to fish or sight-see the many islands that make up the Cedar Keys.

Best views in Cedar Key

We sat, literally all day, on the couch in the living room, with the front French doors open, enjoying the view of the gulf and the easy salt water breeze. An amazing house and location for a couple or a family. This was our second time staying here and this time was just mom & dad - no kids. and it was just as cozy and fun and comfortable as the first time with all the kids here. Can't recommend highly enough!

It couldn’t be more relaxing and peaceful. The host pays attention to detail. Surprises are when you’ve forgotten something…..check around, she probably has it. We’ll definitely stay here every time we come to cedar key. Loved it, thanks Cassandra.

Great Experience

We had a great experience staying in the tree house over Christmas break. It truly had everything we needed and wanted for a relaxing Cedar Key stay. We loved the view from the front porch and the fire pit. We also really enjoyed to screen porch. Highly recommend this property.

Walks, birds, quiet, comfortable "at home"

We loved everything about the tree house from bikes, kayaks, reliable wifi, ice, filtered water, the views and a nice kitchen with everything we needed. Cedar Key is a very quiet and "no hype" kind of town. And our visit couldn't have been more pleasant.

Anniversary Celebration

We been going to Cedar Key since childhood. It has always been our favorite get away. A short drive from Ocala put us in a quiet place to unwind. We enjoyed staying in the Tree House as it was on a dead end street with no traffic. Just the place to celebrate our 52nd Wedding Anniversary.

Perfect location and great property!

The Tree House is a fantastic property to rent for a nice weekend getaway, or in our case, Christmas break. The home is full of amenities including Kayaks, Bikes, golf cart rental if needed, a grill (we didn't use the grill but I'm sure it works fine like everything else did!), a firepit, dock with bar, etc. The house was well maintained and clean. The smores kits, coffee, popcorn, etc were all a very nice touch! We will be staying here again!
