Historic gem has been carefully remodeled while maintaining its charm. The structure was built in 1880 for two sisters. The upstairs was always a residence and the downstairs was the home of Bodiford Pharmacy. Today, you can stay here and walk to everything downtown. No car needed, Restaurants, shopping, art, co-ops, museum, City park, beach, welcome center and more are all located within a couple blocks. Now named The Carmen House.
Great rental in downtown Cedar Key that has such charm and character. The space has modern amenities with antique flow from the historic stairs, to the windows, to the tabby walls from the 1800's. This amazing space is suited for a girls weekend or a romantic getaway for two!
The access to the building is on B street with entry by the picket fence, up the steps to the "Black" door. Inside there will be a bright green door that will take you up stairs to the space. The entire 2 - story apartment is available for guests with a great veranda for relaxing off the kitchen. Please note: stairs are required to access the apartment and second floor bedrooms.
We will always be available for any questions or any assistance during your stay.
The Carmen House, Circa 1880, is located in the heart of downtown Cedar Key. All stores, restaurants are located within a short walking distance, as well as the beach, marina, Library and the Cedar Key Garden. Rent a golf cart from nearby or a bike.
As mentioned, renting a golf cart or bike is an option on the island. We can provide additional information after booking.

Superb location for the art festival. Nice space. Beautifully decorated. Stairs are a little steep so take your time going up to the bedrooms on top floor and hold on the handrail. The top floor also slants. So if you drank too much you might not even notice it . I would definitely recommend it

Good vibes, low key
This was a perfect vacation. The apartment was amazing. Loved the veranda to catch a cool gulf breeze, people watch and relax after a fun day exploring cedar key. Perfect location to walk to everything or jump in a golf cart and zip around.

The house was great. Very spacious, clean & a perfect location. This house may have issue for some. The second set of stairs is a bit steeper than typical stairs, but they have hand railing. I found no issue but my mother -in-law

Relaxing stay
We had several days here and it was very relaxing. The unit is centrally located in this quiet town. The furniture in the living room was comfortable. The place was well stocked. Easy directions to enter. We were there in February so the weather was nice. Would recommend

Lovely home in a great location. Walkable to almost everything. There is a staircase inside the entrance door and another to the bedrooms. Since it's an older home, these are steep. Be aware when you book. Fabulous home. Well appointed. Lovely deck. Front of deck overlooks the street. Perfect for morning coffee. There was a little confusion between the property management emails and the Expedia emails. Different lock codes and WiFi information, but it was swiftly straightened out. WiFi information is in the property. All in all, very pleased.

Character and Location A+++
Everything you will need for your stay. Immaculate property with plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the historic downtown of Cedar Key. Yes, there are stairs. No, they are not a problem. Definitely will be back!

Great Location
Stayed here the weekend before the seafood festival with the family and enjoyed every minute of it. The home was very well decorated and is located central to everything. The photos don't do it justice. There is a large porch on the second floor overlooking portions of the key. Location was perfect as walked everywhere we needed to go. Saw some comments about how steep the staircase is, but it's what you would expect in an older historic home. Highly recommend, and would stay there again no problem.

Experience
Lovely property. Really only a one night stay, but property required two night. Property next door downright scary. Should be demolished unless historical. Front door had problems with self locking mechanism which bothers massage therapist below. Overall, ok but nothing to get too excited about.

Christmas in Cedar Key
The Carmen House was just what we were looking for. Although unseasonably cold we drove up to Manatee Springs State Park and saw about 20 Ts off the boardwalk. We had seafood dinners, rode our bikes, hiked in the preserve. All very quiet, just what we wanted. For the unprepared the stairs to the bedrooms can be a challenge. We had one hiccup with the heat on the main level that caused us to leave one day early but Mendy was responsive and was kind enough to refund us for that last day.

Great place in a quiet community
The Carmen House was located a short walk from almost everywhere in town. The place had all the amenities we needed (kitchen is LOADED with whatever you need to cook), and it made our stay super comfortable. Yes - the stairs to the 2nd floor are STEEP, but they were totally fine to navigate. The murphy bed is in the living room, so someone who can’t do the steeper stairs could easily stay on the main floor. There is a set of stairs to get to the 1st floor of the house, as well, but they were not steep at all. My family of 3 really enjoyed our stay. The living room was super cozy, and the deck was great to relax on (and people watch), as well. Both bedrooms were a decent size. The master bed was really soft which is my only complaint. The bathroom upstairs is smaller than the one downstairs, but both were nice. The shower upstairs is smaller, but the shower pressure upstairs was better than downstairs. It was probably way too much room for my family of 3, but it was nice to be away from home but still have the comforts of home. So much better than a hotel or condo!

A Visit at Hi e
The property is a home, warm and inviting and fully equipped, just like being home. Open and inviting In a great location within walking distance to restaurant and the pier. The stairs were a bit of a challenge but add to the uniqueness of the property. Historic properties hold unique charms and this location is absolutely charming. We will be back.

Mother’s Day annual getaway
My college roommates and I have a long standing tradition (35 years) of getting together and going someplace special for Mother’s Day. We enjoy our friendship, our destination, the activities, and usually have a great time. This is something we look forward to all year. Needless to say we have been many places but the Carmen House will go down in the major disappointment category. We are all in our 60’s and in fairly good shape but when my girlfriends took one look at the staircases, they wanted to leave immediately, of course they all looked at me because I booked it- I had no clue how treacherous “stairs “ could be. We didn’t leave because they knew we couldn’t get our money back. No one slept upstairs but me. The only salvation was that the living area and kitchen were spacious.. we managed to enjoy the trip in other ways even though all water activities were canceled due to the weather. ( no rain, just wind). So that’s my Mother’s Day 2022 story. Needless to say, we won’t be returning. I think Pelican Realty needs to be much more forthcoming about the stairs- I wish we would have known.
