For the last several years, this property (The Treehouse) has been a supremely highly rated vacation property on VRBO. It is being sold with furnishings and can be the perfect turnkey rental property. Waterfront property in Florida is in high demand year round. Many of the renters have been coming back year after year. The TreeHouse is a spacious two bedroom stilt home in the heart of Cedar Key, located just an hour west of Gainesville and situated in the center of Florida's Nature Coast. It offers nature lovers amazing bird watching with soaring eagles, ospreys and migrating birds galore. For fishermen, it's a fishing paradise of Redfish, Trout, Drum and much more. Enjoy Robinson Crusoe vibes and an amazing unobstructed view of the Gulf of Mexico right from the large screened in front porch, built around two oak trees. A boat dock out back on the canal allows fisherman to keep their boats in the water. Catch fish and crabs for dinner right off your own dock. When the sun is setting, step out on the covered front deck to feel the breeze and enjoy the spectacular sunset view over the beautiful Gulf. You may see a school of dolphin cavorting in the cove right in front of you or even the swirl of a drum close enough to make you want to throw a line out. Cedar Key also offers outstanding local cuisine in its many casual dining restaurants. The natural beauty of Cedar key and its slow pace allow visitors to feel what old Florida must have been like years ago allowing for very restful vacations. Whether you want to just relax, sit and read a book, kayak, fish or just to enjoy the diverse wildlife, the TreeHouse is the perfect location. Everything in this "Old Florida" style fishing and clamming village is within easy close and biking distance. From The TreeHouse, the walk to town and the city's beach is a leisurely 20 minutes along picturesque streets. Or in the other direction is a 15 minute walk to the small airport beloved by daily exercise walkers and pilots alike. The City Park offers a nice beach with a pavilion, outdoor showers, and all the facilities you need to enjoy a pleasant Gulf side afternoon. Stroll around town and watch the crabbers checking their traps, fishermen bringing in their catch and dolphins jumping from the water. Or take one of the many excursions offered by boat Captains off Dock Street to fish or sight-see the many islands that make up the Cedar Keys.
