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.

Not too far from home already love Cedar key finally found a place that we can book again. Lovely home great location, beautiful view well-kept property.
We truly enjoyed our time at this quiet spot. Everything was organized and clean. The owner communicated a few times to make sure things were going well and no problems. Greatly appreciated and will recommend to anyone heading to that area
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!
This was our first visit to Cedar Key...we LOVED the treehouse and the cute little town. Thanks for all of the great recommendations, we'll be back to explore more!💙
A short getaway for some relaxation. The Treehouse was everything we expected and more. All the upgrades that have been made made the stay even better. Thanks for a wonderful stay.
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.
So completely happy with our stay at the Tree House. The Peck family is so generous and Cassandra is wonderful. Sweet accommodations, kayaks, bike and amenities galore, great location…just a very positive experience.
This property is exactly as presented on VRBO. We couldn't have been more pleased with our stay. The owner's were very accommodating and easy to work with. The location is as stated and was truly amazing! We intend to return to Cedar Key and hopeful that this property will be available.
Lovely home with fantastic views. Good fishing off the back deck. Lots of things to do, even in the rain. Great attention to the smallest details. Would definitely stay again.
Wonderful place to stay for an extended weekend. Town and people very friendly. Loved the sunshine and the peace and quiet. Thanks for a great vacation.
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.
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.
What wonderful touches to make our stay so pleasant. Everything we needed and more. A perfectly quiet street and lots of birds to keep us entertained wherever we were. Thank you so much.
