Cute, artistically decorated, clean, friendly host. However, we left day early after finding dirty roaches on kitchen counter. Bit palmetto bug which are common in Florida, but the longer thin nasty kind ..although all live roaches are revolting

Absolute Gem!Our stay at the Little House in Cedar Key was an absolute delight, and it honestly ranks as one of the best and cutest rentals we have ever stayed in. From the moment we walked through the door, the "Artist Cottage" vibe felt so welcoming and thoughtful. It is perfectly decorated, making the space feel both cozy and inspiring.The cottage is tucked away in a wonderfully quiet neighborhood where we felt completely at peace, yet it still had every single thing we could have possibly needed for a comfortable stay. It’s rare to find a place that feels this well-loved and intentional. We enjoyed every minute of the quiet atmosphere and the charming surroundings—we truly didn't want to leave! If you are looking for a peaceful getaway with plenty of character, this is the perfect spot.

About the host

Hosted by Cindy Leiner

Host profile image
My husband and I built little house in 1986 as a rental home. We always loved the tiny house concept and thought it would a good idea to give us some added income. The cottage has a special place in our hearts and we love how comfortable and quaint it feels. We have been in property management for 25 years before we retired in 2005, so we have had a lot of experience making guests relaxed and happy, we think you will find that comfort in little house as well.

Why they chose this property

This property has more character and personality than most rentals you will find here. We are both artists and the cottage has many original works of art along with eclectic pieces of sculpture. It has a lot of charm and attention to detail, that makes this cottage very special.

What makes this property unique

This cottage is on the first floor and convenient to your car for carrying in groceries and luggage. If you are looking for peace and tranquility of small town life and an escape from the daily grind, Little House is just the place for you.
