The water was cold, but with this Florida heat it felt very refreshing. Once you get moving around in the water it's not bad at all. This is a Beautiful Springs! No wonder Rainbow Springs is considered the most beautiful of the state's 33 first-magnitude springs, more than any other state and more than any nation can boast. Tubing here was so relaxing too! There are air stations to fill your tubes if you're bringing your own. If you are coming in by the Rainbow Springs State Park entrance be prepared to wait in line its recommended to be at the springs super early. They open at 8 AM I would recommend to be here at 6:30AM. They close the park and won't let anyone else in when it's full to capacity. Great place to come with family and friends.

I got my phone to call and noticed a VM had been left from the same phone number. Due to spotty service, I could not figure out what was being said in the VM, so I called. The gentleman on the phone was very rude. "I left you a message with this information a few minutes ago," he said. I explained what I typed above and was given the code. When entering the ranger station the gentleman barely looked up. I said nicely that I believe I just spoke to you on the phone and I am here to check-in. He was just as rude during the check-in process. Whatever, people have bad days. We found our site and got everything setup. We had a great site and the park is very beautiful. We could hear kids playing a site or two down and some dogs randomly barking here and there throughout the park. Our dogs responded by barking "HI" back a couple of times before we shushed them and they quieted down The next two days were chilly and nothing particular to note regarding park or staff. We were a tad disappointed in the lack of walking and/or bike trails, but at this point were still happy with the park. Note: we did not see any trails leading to the springs; you had to drive to a separate entrance. Saturday is the day that did it for us. As I stated above, during the day we could almost always hear kids, adults, and especially dogs throughout the park. It was not irritating or bothersome whatsoever, to us any how. It was simply normal background noise during NON QUIET TIME HOURS! Do our dogs "talk" sometimes, yes, but we quiet them quickly. We know all SP park rules require well-behaved dogs and that they are not overly noisy. I had taken our dogs on a few walks over the past couple of days, but had not taken them on the bicycle yet, and set off with one about 11 am or so. She did not make one peep during our ride around the entire park. When I was leaving to take the second dog out, I was stopped at the end of our site by who I believe was a campground host. She was driving an orange gator. Mind you, I had one dog strapped to my chest and the other three were outside, in the caged area attached to our RV, behind our truck, and could clearly hear and see us (my spouse was also standing there with the dogs). They only made a few whiny noises but did not bark once. This woman had a scowl on her face like we were having a raging rave party in the park. She asked if were the site with the overly loud and barking dogs. I was taken back a bit, and considering at this point our dogs had not barked at her once, I responded the same as I typed above. They do bark occasionally, but we get them quieted down very quickly. I was then told that was basically untrue because the night before she had received three complaints. This was simply not true! Not about our dogs anyhow. I told her that the night before we sat around the fire for a bit and the dogs were quiet and that we were inside before 9 pm because it was so cold that night (and my watch indicated I was fast asleep by 9:22 pm). She scoffed back that the complaints came around 8 pm and woke her up as she went to bed early. I just looked at her shocked and reiterated it could not have been our dogs, but that I would tell my husband. She sped off and I turned around to tell my husband. He too was shocked. I postponed the other dog bike rides so the others would not make a peep if I left. We then made sure the dogs stayed 100% quiet, even though we could hear other dogs throughout the park as also stated above. As we sat there and talked about what had happened, we replayed the last few days over and over and were still perplexed at the situation. This was our 14th time camping at FL SPs. We have also stayed at a city park a few times. We have NEVER had any complaints about us or the dogs. We then talked about the quiet time hours and how we were always inside and quiet during this time. Furthermore, our dogs were not being disruptive at any time during our trip. We were also not being loud at any point, as we never are. We respect the rules and quiet time hours. We, nor the dogs, are ever outside past 10 pm (at the latest) and we never let them out in the morning before at least 8 am. This parks quiet hours were post as 11 pm to 7 am from what we could find. I do not know what this particular worker had against us, but it pi$$ed us off. We had been quite happy with our dogs during the trip as they were less "aware" of the other campers as they usually are. Even during walks, they did not bark at a single other person or dog we passed. Up until the interaction, we had been talking about booking again, but will not be back ever again. I would have understood if our dogs had been having a barking fit, but they were not and did not during this trip. Do not go here if you, your kids, or your dog make any type of noise.

There was a nice sea breeze and a pier you could walk out on with a few tables there too. There is a food truck that is always on site that serves some tasty beef tacos with a delicious homemade pico as well as several other food options. Drink service at the bar was very slow as several people (I assume locals) came in after me but were served before me. It's great that everyone knows everyone, but we out of towners would like to support you too. We only ended up getting one drink each because of this.

They gave us an old boat, radio didn't work, and top was extremely hard to retract which we had to do before going thru an underpass upriver. The boat acted weird but 1 hour down the river the boat completely quit! Called and they sent Todd an hour upstream (nice guy) to us. He couldn't get the boat started, so had to pull us back to their dock. So 3 hours spent on the water with only one hour of our 4 hour rental enjoyable. Todd assured us over and over they would make this right, we would not be charged, not our fault, etc. Todd did offer us another boat, but it was 3:30 and I'm sure they would not have waited for us to get our other 3 hours, I would not want to be on the river after dark! It's now March 11, we have returned to TN the end of Feb and still no credit for our broken down boat. After countless phone calls, the owner Stan finally agreed on March 6 to refund half our 300$ spent. It's now March 11 and no money has been refunded. Be careful renting from this company, and don't let them give you the old brown pontoon. If Todd had told us the policy was "no refund" we would have got another boat before we left the end of February!

There's plenty of outdoor seating, spots to have a fire and even bicycles you can rent during your stay. We stayed in the Firefly cottage that has an unobstructed view of the water from its private back porch. Every morning we received freshly ground coffee and enjoyed it on the porch watching the jumping trout and pelicans. It was really relaxing and serene. The cottage itself had everything you'd need and was super clean. Cute little kitchen area, fully stocked with plates and utensils. Bathroom with plenty of towels, toiletries and places to hang your bags. There's also a living room area with tv and queen sized bed. The cottage is so cozy and decorated with the coolest art and books. The best part are the hosts/owners. Ian and Darrin were so warm and welcoming. You can tell they love what they do. They know all the best spots in town too! The cottages are also only a 15 minute walk to town. We walked everywhere when we were there which was good considering all the tasty diner food we had.

I had never been to Cedar Key, and was very excited. Pulling up to the B&B was a little magical. It was painted in pretty pastels, and we parked in front of their beautiful fenced in yard. It had majestic trees, and such an incredible, inviting vibe. Our room, Ms. Ida"s room, was beautifully decorated and inviting. It was large enough for our dog's large crate without making us feel cramped. The bathroom even had a beautiful claw footed tub. It was centrally located so we basically walked everywhere without issue. The Gulf of America was right there, and we really enjoyed watching the pods of dolphins frolick each night. The breakfast was delicious! We had a "Zippy", sausage and homemade biscuits. The Zippy was like a little southwestern quiche. Best of all were the people running this B&B. Heather and Cindi couldn't have made us feel more welcome, important, and frankly, loved! They were so kind and engaging, and totally doted on my dog. (Even made him his own scrambled eggs with cheese!) I had never been to Cedar Key, but I will definitely be back and will stay here again! Check it out!

Nestled right in the neighborhood on a corner on 3rd St, I parked my car when I arrived in town and…read moreit never moved until I was leaving town... I walked everywhere! Dock Street and all... but I really didn't even need to leave. It was very peaceful and relaxing and exactly what I was looking for. This BnB has it all. Charm, wonderful homemade breakfasts, friendly staff, great rooms... mine was on the 2nd floor and had its own private large balcony, accessible from the only other door up the stairs, next to the door to my room. The grounds were beautiful. I spent a good amount of time there. For just coffee, then breakfast, just before sunset in the afternoons... even just overlooking the grounds from the back porch. I walked around and looked at the different kinds of flowers... Alice pretty much does most of the landscaping. I spoke with Alice a good bit while enjoying breakfast in the garden one morning... very sweet and friendly, she truly loves the property and cares about her guests. It was my birthday weekend and my cousin and aunt contacted the BnB and spoke with Amanda. Amanda is who greeted me when I first arrived. She wished me a happy birthday and it took me some time before I figured out how she knew that. LOL When she showed me my room, I only asked about shampoo, she said because my hair was long, she guessed a 2 in 1 type of shampoo wouldn't suffice and I said, if it's something like Pantene, it would! After I returned from my afternoon out and about, there was a bottle of Pantene sitting on the decorate table outside my room. I'm not sure that it was readily available or if she actually went and bought it...but I was certainly appreciative and used it immediately. The next morning, after she read my notes on food issues (no chocolate, no almonds....) she had to ask me at breakfast what I couldn't eat again because my aunt and cousin requested gluten and dairy free, chocolate brownies to surprise me! I can and do eat gluten and dairy...but no chocolate. Amanda had in fact found gluten and dairy free brownies! They would have been wonderful...if I could eat them. Instead, she went out of her way once again and found me a vanilla cake on the fly... dressed it with hibiscus flowers and candles. She was very sweet and we talked for a while as well. Goes to show you how much they enjoy and appreciate what they do and the people they do it for. I enjoyed staying at this BnB, it encompasses old Florida and the local culture and I would definitely stay here again!
