Bridges Cottage - Vintage in Heart of Cedar Key!

Step into timeless charm at Bridges Cottage, a beautifully preserved two-bedroom hideaway in the heart of downtown Cedar Key. Nestled between the new bakery and the community garden on 2nd Street, this enchanting cottage places you just steps away from local favorites—launch your kayak from the park or drop your boat in the marina, browse the island’s fun shops, or enjoy fresh seafood and dolphin sightings along Dock Street.



Wake up to water views from both the front and upstairs porches, and unwind in the secluded courtyard after a day of exploring. Watch the sunrise at the park and catch breathtaking sunsets with a short stroll down 2nd Street to Gulf Blvd.



Inside, you’ll be transported to a bygone era. Every room is adorned with carefully curated antiques—from intricately carved wooden furniture to an antique bed frame in the master bedroom (double mattress, best for snuggling!). The guest room features a comfy queen bed, and with two and a half updated bathrooms, you’ll enjoy all the charm with modern comforts.



Other highlights include:

• Water views from both porches

• Walking distance to shops, parks, dining, and Dock Street

• Private courtyard and firepit (outdoor use only)

• Private parking with space for your boat (back-in access through ~10ft gate)

• Full of character and warmth—ideal for antique lovers



Come experience the unique blend of vintage elegance and island relaxation at Bridges Cottage. Your Cedar Key getaway awaits!

Perfect place for our girls birthday trip. Beautiful home with everything we needed. Because of the cold snap we didn't get to use the "compass patio" but maybe next time. We rented a golf cart right across the street and explored the whole key. Bakery next door was closed on Tuesday and sold out of most things by 10 when we checked out, so get there early! Wonderful trip.

Lovely little cottage

We have been visiting Cedar Key for years and have always peeked at the gorgeous little courtyard when we'd pass by. So excited to finally have had the opportunity to stay there ourselves. Perfectly clean, well stocked, and just so lovely inside.

This home could easily be 5 stars with some work. Dripping faucet, unable to drink the water, back door not locking, furniture stained, porches filthy, kitchen faucet wobbly etc. The home itself is charming. Needs landscaping work and a good cleaning.

Amazing Home in the Perfect Location!

Our party of four absolutely loved this beautiful home! It was so peaceful, but right in the heart of town, right next to the adorable community garden. We especially loved hanging out on the covered porches, both upstairs and down. The home is so full of fun details. Very comfy beds, well-equipped kitchen, fire pit, and so much more. Would definitely stay again! We love Pelican management--Mendy and Caryn are fab!

Post hurricane

Wanted to revisit Cedar Key after the hurricane last year. Was pleased to see the community is recovering nicely. Lots of repair work going on, but the community is basically intact. The property was well taken care of and is easily accessible to the pier, beach and restaurants. The property is well-maintained and very nice. Wound up being a perfect choice for us.

Our Go To Place in Cedar Key!

The Bridges Cottage is a great place to stay for families or just a couple wanting a relaxing stay in Cedar Key in the heart of town. The home is located right in the middle of all the amenities that Cedar Key has to offer. Park your car because everything you'd want to do is right outside your doorstep. Grab breakfast at the 2nd Street Cafe just across the street, or dinner and drinks at the Island Hotel next door. A new bakery has opened right next to the house for an afternoon donut or ice cream. The park and beach are directly across the street. The Bonish Bar is 2 blocks away for your evening cocktail. The Bridges Cottage itself is a beautiful Old Florida home. The large front porch has ceiling fans and comfortable couches for lounging and watching the world go by. The hardwood floors and cypress walls inside will make you feel like a local. The living room is large enough for the whole family to relax and tell tall fishing tales or play a board game. The kitchen is large and has plenty of cookware to fry up your catch of the day and have a family meal. The bedrooms and bathrooms are large and comfortable. This is a real home and you will feel at home here. We stay at the Bridges Cottage 3-4 times a year. It never disappoints!

The cottage is conveniently located in the middle of 2nd St, in downtown Cedar Key. The house was a quaint historical two story home with balconies on both floors, and an outdoor patio space with a fire pit. It was a lovely home with a great mix of old and new elements. I would recommend highly.
