Cedar Hill Depot: Historic charmer 3 blocks from the Gulf

Welcome to the Cedar Hill Depot house where character and comfort meet.

Built in the early 1950's it has endless charm, and with the recent renovations you also get all the comforts of today. At 650 sq ft the studio style cabin offers a spacious feel. The unique and fun train theme gives a special touch of history from the area. The train that linked East and West Florida from 1861 until 1932 was brought all the way to Cedar Key and played a big part in making this bustling little community.
**We ask that all guests be over the age of 18.

At just 3 easy walking blocks from the water and 2 block from the delicious dining options of 2nd St, you won't need to drive unless you really want to. The famous Cedar Key Fishing Pier is less than a half mile and while you're out there check out the shops and restaurants on the water, the views at sunset can't be beat!

The bedroom is separated from the main living area but does not have a door. There is a comfortable Queen sized bed there and a cozy feel.

The main living area has a Queen sized sofa bed along with additional seating to comfortably have 4 people gathering together.

The kitchen is small with basic amenities. There is a sink, small refrigerator, cups, coffee and coffee maker and some disposable utensils and plates. You will want to plan on eating out or bringing food back for your meals as this kitchen isn't really made for cooking.

There is 1 full bathroom with a shower, sink and toilet. You'll also find shampoo, conditioner, soap and plush towels.

Outside there is a covered front porch with seating so you can enjoy the fresh air and watch the fountain in the yard.

Getting to Cedar Key usually takes a car but with this fabulous central location you might not need it once you get here. To get into the home itself you'll climb a few stairs but once inside it's a single level.

Parking for 1 car in the white gravel area in front of the cabin where it says train parking, park to the far left next to the fence. See map in the photos for location.

This home is equipped with our smart lock system, you'll get your access code to sent you via email and online message the day before your arrival. You can check in anytime after 4 pm on your reservation day. We are always around to answer questions or help out but if you'd like some space and serenity you'll have it!

Great little cottage
Great location, walking distance(approx 1/2 mile) to town. Did everything we needed, location, sleeping arrangements. Shower is a little small, but usable. Parking is shared drive way so a full size truck would be hard, if not impossible, to park in designated spot. Luckily we took the mid size SUV.

Peaceful and Clean
The Cedar Hill Depot is a small studio-style accommodation. I am picky about cleanliness, and everything was very clean! The bed was also comfortable. Be sure to read the listing carefully though. There is no separation between the living room and bedroom, so if your spouse is an early riser and you are not, it may not fit your vacation-style. Also, there is only a small microwave and a small refrigerator with a freezer section that will only hold maybe two ice trays. Keep this in mind when booking because you will need to eat out for most if not all of your meals. The host and management team were both very nice and responded rather quickly. Don't forget to schedule your day around the beautiful sunsets here - only a couple blocks to the most gorgeous sunset view!

The property and the host and the area was wonderful. We very much enjoyed staying there. Incredible time kayaking with dolphins all around us, took a small airplane ride from a local pilot, which was wonderful to see the islands, rented bikes, and bikes all around the neighborhoods, great seafood, live music was great and the place we stayed in was Quaint and cute. The only thing we should have done was checked into whether there was a way to do some light cooking. No stove or a hot plate. But we were only there a few days so it was fine. All in all five stars.

A Charming Little Getaway
Can’t say enough good things about our stay at Cedar Hill Depot VRBO.We arrived to find our mini home away from home for 2 nights tucked into a sandy floral adornment of an island-like little paradise complete with an abundance of tropical flora and fauna including multiple species of birds, mammals and amphibians. All this and more located just a short walk away from views of the sun setting over the Gulf waters. Our living quarters were spacious, clean and comfortable. Most of the shops and eateries in the quaint little coastal town of Cedar Key were within easy walking distance. We stopped in at “Tony’s” for a sampling of their famous clam chowder and couldn’t get away without eating a couple of bowls. We also purchased several cans to take home for friends and family. We ate a tasty country style breakfast the next morning at Second Street Cafe and walked away satisfied and satiated.That afternoon after a nature walk and drive through the Lower Suwannee Nature Preserve, we stopped in at the Tiki Bar just off the main road for a refreshment and light meal. We could not have had a more relaxing and enjoyable experience than we had there at Cedar Key which was highlighted by meeting and having conversations with the delightful owner/proprietor of CHD. This was a rare 5 star experience for sure!
