The property is located in a quiet neighborhood and within walking distance of the ocean or downtown. The layout of the cottage makes it feel larger than 700 square feet. I would definitely recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. We love Cedar Key, it is a friendly, beautiful island. The people there are helpful and friendly. The screened in porch was our favorite place to be, enjoyed the sounds of nature and quiet.

This house was fantastic. Cozy old cottage loaded with charm and a screened in porch that was amazing. Close to everything. We brought bikes so once we parked the car we never needed it again. The cottage had everything we needed and check in was a breeze. Definitely recommend this gem!

Great location within an easy walk of downtown, first bridge, and historic school and cemetery. House was like being at home - fully equipped with whatever is needed. Quiet time on the back porch, jigsaw puzzle on the table, good shower and night's sleep.

We have been celebrating my wife's birthday in Cedar Key for nine years and it is always quiet, relaxing, and we eat too much. Mellow Yellow lived up to its name as it was really in a quiet neighborhood and within walking distance to Annie's for breakfast. Breakfast was really more like an early lunch because we were able to sleep peacefully.
Annie's was kind enough to throw an egg on the BLT even though we were looking at the lunch menu. But this is about our stay at Cathy's place. It was comfortable and as I mentioned quiet and well appointed. A real Cedar Key home complete with a certificate of her father's prize winning fish.
I loved the fact that we could book and pay immediately because the vacancy showed on the calendar. There was no waiting on the owner's or manager's approval. You paid and were booked; perfect.
We loved her father's home and will be back. Thank you Cathy!

The property was nice but smelled musty - tried to ‘air’ it out to no avail - was clean though.
Furniture and decor need updating but comfortable
Okay for a couple...
