We just absolutely loved our stay here…read more Reserved a 3 bedroom 3 bath house with a private dock directly on the river. Arrived around 8 at night and needless to say it's quite dark on these parts but the caretakers left the house brightly lit so we could easily pick it out. The house itself was gorgrous! A huge chefs kitchen...2 bedrooms and 2 baths downstairs. The mater suite was upstairs and to die for. Separate living room..big comfy bed...a western style soaking tub..water closet..and french doors the opened to the balcony over looking the river. There was a huge dining table inside as well as a table om the deck overlooking the river where u could eat as well. The kitchen had every utensil..pot or pan that you'd ever need. We Even Got To Use The fireplace as a cold front came through dropping it down to 50 before it quickly passed and went up to 80 One of the cabins is known for Jimmy carter staying there. They have a petting zoo which was fun at first but after a few minutes you could tell it isn't high on their priority list which bothered me a bit. There is also a small chapel amd really large cabin for receptions or reunions. Our rental was $650 plus taxes etc. Well worth every penny. There were a few cute local restaurants nearby we enjoyed as well directly on the river. It really is a very nice area!

We loved the grounds with the walking paths, great for the pup and well lit at night. Brought our boat and parked in the trailer parking areas which was great! Docked up one afternoon during our river cruise. Amenities are great. Didn't use the pool but that is a definite perk. Dog run is great. Grounds were well taken care of. Perfect little getaway. Our cottage had a grill (had to buy charcoal- keep in mind if you want to bring for your stay). Bed super comfy. Shower/tub was an adventure. Great dog friendly cottage.good location, homossasa spring 2 hours, rainbow spring 1 hr 30min, same for cedar key. Thanks Trish, we had a blast!

I will go ahead and start this review off by letting you know that this is not a Hilton nor…read moreanything close. But what it is is a perfect place to stay during scalloping season. Our room was clean and got the job done for only $135 that included two twin bed's, a queen bed, a refrigerator, microwave, a small bathroom, and a boat slip in their marina which is a huge win in my book. They also have a store located in the motel office that sells just about everything you would need for a fishing/scalloping trip including a small selection of alcohol. At the marina they sell fuel and ice and also have some super nice people who will clean your scallops for eight dollars a pound which is well worth it in my book. They also rent boats at the marina. Attached to the motel is the who dat bar and grill which puts out the best seafood in the city hands down. I will forewarn you that if you are coming to Steinhatchee to go scalloping, go to your local grocery store to stock up on drinks, alcohol, snacks, and breakfast items bc there is only one grocery store in the town which is pretty much sold out of everything. I also would like to warn you that there is no service in this entire town. So make sure that you let everyone know this before heading on your vacation so your friends and family don't think you're dead. Happy scalloping!

This place should be called "Bad Times." We booked a boat…read morerental months in advance for a scalloping weekend with friends. Check-in went smoothly, but when we took our paperwork to the dock, we were told they didn't actually have the boat we reserved. They put us in a different boat, which wasn't ideal, but we accepted it and enjoyed our first day. We had rented the boat for two days, so we kept the keys overnight as instructed. The next morning, we arrived to find that our boat was gone. They had rented it to someone else, even though we had already paid for a two-day rental. Since every marina in the area was fully booked for the weekend, this completely disrupted our plans. Their solution was simply to offer us a refund and send us on our way--no apology, no effort to help us find another boat, and no concern for the fact that our weekend had been ruined. Only after we made it clear that this wasn't an acceptable solution did they suddenly "find" another boat for us. Then, to make matters worse, they told us we would have to pay for a half-day rental on this replacement boat. At that point, we just wanted to salvage what was left of our weekend, so we agreed and planned to sort it out later. Unfortunately, the replacement boat was in terrible condition. It had engine problems, wouldn't go faster than about 7 mph, and on the way back in engine was not running too well. We called the marina because we genuinely didn't think we'd make it back safely. They told us they were sending someone to tow us in--but no one ever came. When we finally made it back on our own, they only charged us for gas because I refused to pay for a boat that was clearly not functioning properly. Mistakes happen, but what matters is how a business handles them. This marina repeatedly dropped the ball, showed little concern for their customers, and failed to make things right. I would not recommend renting a boat here.

Sunset Place is a pretty cool condo association in Steinhatchee. All of the units are individually…read moreowned, so they are all decorated and laid out differently. However, when the owner is out of town they have the option of renting out their unit through the front office. Other than the rooms all looking different this place feels a lot like a hotel. You check in at the front office and get a key. There's a maid that comes by to drop off fresh towels etc. The are a few things that I like more than staying at a hotel here, as it's mostly a fishing town. You can use the condo's dock for your boat if you are in town fishing or scalloping. Also, every room has a full kitchen. This is really nice because there are only about two restaurants in this town. All of the rooms have a view of the bay, and the sunsets are awesome here. There's a little pool and some grills to use. The grills are charcoal so plan accordingly. Rates are cheap. As of 4/14 weeknights are $79 and weekends are $99. During scallop season (after July) the rates go up about $30 a night. There's a ton of parking and plenty of boat slips. If you feel like mixing it up with the locals, there's a bar called crabby dad's next door.

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!

It was a one bed, one bathroom that had a sitting area, kitchenette, and balcony. We first noticed how clean the room was. In general, that was true but I found random pieces of hair that weren't ours in the bathroom, on the couch, and who knows where else. My toddler daughter had a long strand of someone else's hair wrapped up in her hair so if may have come from the floor or the couch. That was a little bit of a turn off. The sleep accommodations were nice. The bed was comfortable and there was more than enough room for two adults and a toddler. We loved that the porch was screened in as we enjoyed being out there. There was ample parking in a carport just below the unit. The location is great. While the town is small, this place was steps away from two breakfast spots, the local pizza restaurant, and several shops. It's also a very short walk to Dock Street, where the Harbour Master Suites office and their Dilly Dally Gally is, along with other restaurants and bars. While the place could use a little more attention to detail with cleaning, overall, we enjoyed our stay and the check-in and checkout process was quick. I would be interested to return at some point to see what the room options are like at the main site.

My point is that you'll have to drive two hundred miles across two states to find anything comparable to The Grady House. Real antique furnishings, real flowers, real hospitality, and very real people. It shines through in the Miller family and staff. The photos show the true to period decor of the home and grounds and its ambiance, as well as the exquisite presentation of the high quality breakfast.

The only word of caution I would recommend is to travelers with allergies: make sure to check the weather report for pollen counts. With all the animals and foliage, there is plenty to make anyone sniffle, but if you have an allergy to pollen or any other seasonal allergen you could be overwhelmed. My wife was popping allegra and was still sniffling quite a bit and had some trouble sleeping because of it.
