"Beautiful home and location."

"What a welcoming feeling walking into The Cranes Nest; after the climb upstairs all we wanted to do was sit on the balcony and marvel at the views- SO worth it! The location is perfect- we walked everywhere. Something to consider is that the closest “real” grocery store is about a 20 minute drive; plan ahead! I think my favorite part of the stay was all the different birds we spotted from the balcony- thanks for the binoculars; I didn’t have to fight with my husband over the pair we brought!"

"So close to everything in Cedar Key. Great host, service and price, that you will be able to find there!!"

"What a great place. My family and I loved Bonaire Cottage. The Old Florida vibe reminded me of times past but in a modern way. The cottage is spotlessly clean and comfortable. With nature and the water right outside the back door. Osprey's and coffee on the back porch watching the tide every morning was so very relaxing and just what my soul needed. I cannot say enough good things about this place. The host was pretty awesome too. "

"Perfect property! Had a blast! Quiet & nice!"

"Very kind hosts and excellent location. "

"Happy with the accommodation "

"This location was perfect, located in a small quiet neighborhood, minutes feom the water and the beach, and restaurants. The whole town is super friendly and fun to explore. This little property is located right next door to the owners of the property who were very quiet and extremely welcoming. "

"We have mixed results about our stay and would not recommend anyone book a stay at this property until the issues we experienced are resolved. The property as described is mostly accurate. Rustic home on a canal that is very quiet, away from busy streets, walkable, close to park and trails, and includes observable nature experiences such as osprey. These elements were enjoyable. However, for us the enjoyable experience ended upon realizing the odor we smelled shortly after being in the home was not a stale odor, or dog urine on the couch but from bat urine and guano from bats nesting in the walls as reported from a previous stay. The odor was stronger on humid days and near exterior walls. We opened the windows which helped and spent most of our days out. We did consider requesting another home however decided to stay due to the inconvenience. Due to a family situation we departed early and informed the property management a few days in advance and reported the situation with odor in detail as well. The property manager shared how sorry they were for the unpleasant stay and that they would explore the possibility of bat urine and guano in the walls. Additionally I added that we felt some type of compensation needed to be made such as a credit for another stay as this management company manages multiple homes in the area. Paying full price for a vacation home in this state seemed most inappropriate. We never received any feedback other than we will discuss this. "
