Put my sisters and husbands in this location for the weekend. Managers were super helpful and accommodating. Location was spot on and got a great sunset.
Beautiful views and nice clean property:) If planning on taking out the kayaks provided make sure to make note of the tide schedule. We didnt amd ended up coming back during low tide. It was a muddy mess and would not recommend that experience lol. The kayaks are super nice though. The ride around the islands was peaceful and beautiful. We saw the pink spoonbill birds and opsreys
We had a great Fatherâs Day weekend!
We fished off the dock and caught catfish and trout. The house is comfy and updated. The area is nice and quiet.
Each room has its own tv with a Roku and remote to work the lights and fans and most importantly they all worked! (That never happens in a rental!)
Loved having the extra room and bathroom in the cottage.
Everything was nice, clean, and accessible.
Looking forward to the next visit.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sunset Helen's. The property was just as listed. It was very clean! We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood and the amazing Sunset views. Communication was excellent throughout our stay. We will definitely consider this property again if we are back in Cedar Key.
I would book again. There are 2 homes on this property very close together. We were lucky, other house not rented for most of our stay. I would probably book both homes next time and bring family. We kayaked everyday and enjoyed sitting outside. If you like fishing bring your poles and fish off the dock.
Despite the area being hit hard from Hurricane Helene in September 2024, Cedar Key is rebuilding and there are lots of things to explore in the area. Sunset Helenâs setting provides low tide water bird watching opportunities through the large floor to ceiling windows. The restaurants we tried in town were excellent. This home was very clean and neat and very well stocked! We were quite impressed. The only challenge we had was not having the separate code for the laundry room in the cottage and had to wait for a response before being able to access the washer/dryer. Perhaps add that code to the book in the main house?
Immaculate, comfortable, awesome view, well stocked and great amenities. Loved having a fenced yard for the pups and room for outdoor games. Looking forward to staying there again.
A neighbor of ours moved to Cedar Key and we came to visit, looked at homes and bought this one right away! We loved the location and the amazing views you never get tired of! We work hard to provide you a quality, sparkling clean and well stocked home away from home. We can't wait to host you at Sunset Helen's while we wait to get back here ourselves!
