Located in Cedar Key, this charming condo for $176 per night is a fantastic option for your next vacation. Goose Cove Vacation Rental Condo is situated directly on the Gulf of Mexico in Cedar Key, Florida. Sunsets from the Goose Cove balconies are spectacular. Fish from our dock from sunrise to dark if you like. THE most attractive aspect of Goose Cove is Location. See the photos and you'll understand! Goose Cove is comprised of two condo units on the Gulf of Mexico. We accommodate a maximum of four guests and perhaps a child or two as well. Goose Cove has a unique configuration: The master bedroom is upstairs in the main part of the house. The second bonus bedroom is on the ground level under the main house and is not connected to the rest of the house. From the main part of the home you need to go outside, down the stairs, then into the 2nd bedroom. This is suitable for adults and perhaps teens but not for younger children. Upstairs: The upstairs features the living room, kitchen, dining area and the top floor is the impressive master bedroom which features a queen bed and overlooks the living area with vaulted ceilings and adjacent private bath with tub and shower. The living room is spacious, comfortable and has an unexcelled open view of the Gulf that is only a few yards away. Sliding glass doors in the living room access the main balcony with its panoramic water views. Downstairs: The bonus unattached waterfront bedroom is on the ground floor and has a queen size bed, tv, bath with shower, microwave and mini fridge. Plus also a private waterfront balcony overlooking the Gulf. It should again be noted that from this bedroom the access to the upstairs living areas is via the exterior entrance stairway. The condo has a washer and dryer, two TVs with cable, WiFi, and access to the fishing pier. **FISHING PIER WAS DAMAGED BY THE RECENT HURRICANE....REPAIRS ARE IN THE NEAR FUTURE*** Parking is limited and we would not recommend bringing a boat unless it is small and no more than two vehicles, please. There are five units at this location. Not all are rentals and most times through out the year they are not occupied. We are a pleasant walk along the water to the town where you'll find plenty of restaurants, and stores and rentals of kayaks, bikes, and golf carts.

Came with our 17 year old son to do some fishing. Caught a lot of catfish off the dock. The island is very quiet, the property was nice, dated, but that's in the description. A/C worked great so I appreciate that in July in Florida! Overall, we would stay here again.

We stayed here for a month, and I would recommend it to anyone. We were one of 4 units, all the people were so very friendly. I have to say all of Cedar Key in itself, was one of the friendliest places we have ever stayed in Florida! We found the condo fine for the two of us, and the view and sunsets were amazing! My husband loved fishing off the dock, it was so convenient to just go out your door and be able to fish! My husband enjoyed conversations with Bob next door, who was so kind to share the space with him. We enjoyed walking around Cedar Key, and many times we walked to Dock St and had great seafood!

Everything was fine except the downstairs bedroom. It was very small , especially the bathroom. The mattress was uncomfortable and it was a double bed. Anyone over 6 ft would have been miserable taking a shower. The upstairs accommodations were beautiful and well furnished.

This visit was our second time to this vacation rental. Our first visit was only 2 nights and not long enough to really settle in and enjoy it. We loved sitting on the balcony and overlooking the water. Very comfortable beds and the kitchen is equipped with everything you need to cook a meal. Thank you for sharing this amazing location!
