CEDAR KEY TRANQUILITY -- PART 5


FIND OLD FLORIDA IN CEDAR KEY


Stuffed with seafood, we made our way to the Cedar Key Bed and Breakfast. 

Cedar Key has lots of small lodgings, but no chain hotels. 

Several promise some degree of wheelchair access, but after much research via email and phone calls, we selected the Cedar Key B&B.

Miss Verona’s room has a roll-in shower and easy ramped access from a parking space right in front of the inn. 

The room comes standard with one king bed, but can be converted to two twin beds to accommodate a disabled guest plus attendant. 

For about $130 per night, a room comes with a cooked to order breakfast, free parking and an endless, free supply of the inn’s famous chocolate chip cookies.

The inn is a combination of big, historic house and additions. 

The common areas, including the kitchen and area where breakfast is served, feature barrier-free access. 

The huge porch, also accessible, is the perfect place to crack open a book and gaze at the 400-year-old Live Oak in the spacious back yard.

If you crane your neck a bit, you can see the waterfront just down the street.

The B&B is located in a very quiet part of town with no commercial business for several blocks.

STORY CONTINUES TOMORROW -- APRIL 6
