The Blue Heron was just as the listing described, it was cozy, very clean and near the downtown area. The abundance of cameras on the property was interesting and somewhat understandable for this industry but the "active" camera directly above the sitting area on the front porch made us a bit "big brother is watching" uncomfortable.

Really Enjoyed. Only issue we really had was with another group of guests. They were loud especially arriving at 1AM and were not quiet at all, they left their kids run inside and out while banging on the walls and knocking on our door including during hours that were supposed to be quite time per house rules.I am reasonable and understand there will be some noises but believe me this was way beyond normal. I realize they can't control other's actions. Its just sad that rules are not enforced nor followed by others.

Perfect, cozy, little getaway spot!

Property was as described and we were pleasantly surprised by how well maintained and clean it was. Great value for the price. Wonderful location- super close to downtown, golf cart accessible, across from a fantastic breakfast restaurant. Ample parking. Our unit shared a balcony with our neighbors but they were a great group of people. We really enjoyed our stay.

Great stay in great location

House had everything we needed for our trip! Cooked breakfast and lunch each day. Loved this affordable house to stay while visiting for the week. Safe area. Locals so friendly! Walked the short distance downtown for dinner each night (or across the street for a drink and/ or breakfast/lunch). Many restaurants were closed because of storm last fall, but hoping they rebuild soon. Love this sweet town!!

Comfortable space with Convenient location and parking

Well maintained, affordable and comfortable with designated parking, conveniently located in sight of Annie’s, a beloved spot frequented by locals for breakfast and lunch that additionally boasts a full bar. Well worth the 23 steps to get upstairs and enjoy the porch swing and the laid back vibe of Cedar Key.

We were only able to get away for one night but really enjoyed the comfortable accommodations at Blue Heron. The location was nice, fairly quiet and we felt completely safe. Had we been staying longer we would have found everything we needed in the kitchen to cook a full meal. We hope to be returning for a longer stay soon.
