Beachfront vacation rentals in Horseshoe Beach

Beautiful home with everything you need and more. Plenty of space to relax and enjoy the view. Comfortable and clean. Laura was a wonderful host! We had a small snag in our scheduling due to weather and she was graciously accommodating to us. Highly recommend this place if you like to be in a beautiful and quiet setting for your trip.

We had a great stay. The Tree House was clean, well stocked, and very comfortable. The house is on a peaceful dead end street overlooking the gulf and Seahorse Key. The restaurants and shops are within walking or bicycle riding distance. We used the kayak to paddle around some mangroves. This was probably one of the most relaxing, restful vacations we have had in a long time. One evening there was a threat of bad weather and Cassandra notified us as to where the emergency power source and lighting was located. Thank goodness the storm blew over without incident but we appreciated the heads up. Even though the town has not completely recovered from hurricane Helene, there were enough restaurants and shops open to keep us busy, allow us to explore the island, enjoy the water, and relax at the house. We couldn’t have asked for a better vacay. Well, maybe a little less wind. It was brutal a couple days but it didn’t stop us.

What a great place and wonderful hosts. Lisa and Brian were very welcoming and helpful. Lots of recommendations for restaurants and best places for sunsets. Our cabin was much bigger than I expected and very clean and comfortable. The screened in area in the back looked out on the water and Cedar Key is a bird paradise. We found some good restaurants and the Lowkey Hideaway and Tiki Bar was a riot. Full of locals, beautiful sunset, funky atmosphere, bar cat and great live music. We truly enjoyed our stay and would happily go back.

Amazing location. The hosts were great and very responsive. We will definitely be back!

The cottage was the perfect 'home away from home' vacation, if you want a secluded, peaceful and overall relaxing environment. Everything was as-advertised and the kitchen and bathrooms had everything you would need to make your stay a pleasant one. Kathy and Chris offer a very charming place and are responsive to any questions related to your stay and the surrounding area. We certainly enjoyed each day we were there and look forward to returning.

The location is wonderfully perfect! There was a little bit for everyone to enjoy. We all thoroughly enjoyed starting and ending the day from the dock, the neighborhood was peaceful. We enjoyed the Singing River Tour with Captain's John and Luk. We hope to be back again.

Another fantastic stay at the Hellgate Scallop house. Beautiful, peaceful and a fishing paradise.

I loved it there. Much more than advertised. Nicole was super friendly, helpful and I can tell she took the time to make sure everything was perfect. I will definitely be back.

We enjoyed are stay. Very nice condo. Highly recommend staying here beautiful views.

Everything was as described. Very clean and inviting. Extremely satisfied with how well it was stocked we could have showed up with nothing! We enjoyed our weekend and would stay here again!

We loved Cedar Key. The town is working so hard to come back after the hurricane in the Fall of 2024. We’ve never vacationed at a place where people were so friendly. There’s a few restaurants that are open, welcoming and good. There’s seafood - crabs, oysters and shrimp, for sale on CK. It’s a terrific place to watch sea birds and the tides. We enjoyed kayaking to the surrounding islands. There are lots of fishing boat charters. We could walk all around town and did every day. The biggest downfall is the grocery store was destroyed during the hurricane. There are quite a few small towns within 1/2 hour to an hour drive. We planned activities in those areas and stopped at their grocery stores. Cedar Key is a great place to visit.

This place was a hidden gem! It was beautifully decorated, comfortable bedding, views to die for and most importantly within walking distance to everything. The host was wonderful even allowed us to check in early. We will definitely be back soon.

This is one of my top three best Airbnb experiences I’ve ever had. The hosts were extremely accommodating and anticipated our every need 10 out of 10 would recommend!

Amazing host. Place was absolutely spotless and had everything we needed while traveling with kids. Very responsive before and during stay. Would recommend Katie to everyone

Katie was very responsive and helpful. The condo was exactly what we expected. Very clean. Close to restaurants and beach. We would rent this place again and use McCormick for other rentals also.

We loved our stay! The unit was very comfortable and accommodating with everything we needed. The walk to town was easy and fun. Katie was very responsive and clear in her communications. Our absolute favorite thing to do there every day was sit on the balcony and watch the dolphins play. There were a ton of them all throughout the day!!! What a wonderful experience!!!!

Had an excellent stay, with excellent views and close to everything. I would definitely stay again. A must stop if your looking to go to Cedar Key

A haven for artists, writers, and adventure seekers, CK inspires with its *unspoiled* environment. For a nature lover, it’s a paradise with protected sanctuaries, unreal birdwatching, and miles of scenic trails. Great restaurants and coffee shops within walking distance or a short car ride to the tiki food truck that will cook your catch. Don’t miss out on shell mound and the lower Suwannee - only 15 minutes away. This stay was the perfect way to unplug and connect with nature. The town was serene. I will be definitely be back. *** Highly recommend downloading an offline map of the area….I do this when traveling sometimes but didn’t plan ahead for this trip. I had service and WiFi at the Airbnb but the majority of the island and surrounding area was hit or miss on reception.

The location is just stunning, we spent every morning watching the wildlife from the upper porch. If you want a quiet peaceful location this is the place for you! My boys enjoyed all the wildlife.

Great place to unwind and feel immersed in nature! Enjoyed kayaking a lot! Very secluded feeling! Quaint town, hopefully more restaurants and a grocery store will be back after hurricanes.

My daughter and I enjoyed our stay at this Airbnb in Cedar Key. Everything was nice, clean, and featured modern renovations. The views from upper and lower decks were absolutely stunning; as an end unit, the main bedroom overlooked the water, making us feel like we were on a cruise ship. The location was perfect, with downtown restaurants just a short walk away. We had a blast exploring the nearby waters on our standup paddle boards with small beach access right beside the unit. The condo was well-stocked with everything we needed, making our stay even more comfortable. The hosts were extremely kind, and their communications were very helpful, especially their recommendations for breakfast, lunch, and dinner nearby. Highly recommend!

It's wonderful to wake up to that view every day and be able to walk around Cedar Key... it's a really nice spot for a rejuvenating getaway. The pad does follow the Airbnb trend of minimal items in the kitchen, but there is drip coffee makings and cookware, dishes etc... Also the hallway lights are kinda bright so if you pack a beach blanket or something it could come in handy as a window blind. Cedar Key is worth the stay for scenic getaway and this was a good option for the stay. Be warned it isn't a white-sand beach spot and Cedar key is crippled by the hurricane in late '24. With no store it's a 10 min drive to a really well stocked Dollar General though for store items if needed. Good restaurants, cafes, and bars are open though. We made some other longer day trips to manatee swimming and horseback riding, but glad we stayed out on Cedar Key even if it added some drive time. Highly recommended!

Everything about our stay was perfect! Comfortable house, kayaks on site & beautiful water views. Hosts are great and easy communication - this is our second time here and we’ve already booked another trip!

Our stay at this Cedar Keys property was absolutely wonderful. The private setting offered stunning sunset views that we enjoyed in complete seclusion. Our small dog loved having the freedom to roam around, which was a joy to watch. The property was extremely well-stocked with everything we needed - even overstocked, which was a pleasant surprise. Katie's advice to bring all our groceries was spot on and much appreciated. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone seeking a private getaway to truly relax and enjoy the natural beauty of Cedar Keys.
