Yes, we have an small island directly offshore that's a protected rookery - often teeming with exotic and endangered birds. The sounds created are mesmerizing, and deeply therapeutic. You will return year after year for the birds alone. Among the endangered species you will see are Everglade Snail Kite, Audubon's Crested Caracara, Piping Plover, Florida Scrub-jay, Wood Stork, Red-cockaded Woodpecker, and if you get lucky, the occasional otter has been known to visit. Take the kayaks out to the island... but please try not to disturb any of the area's many species. Enjoy the sunrise AND the sunsets over gorgeous Cedar Lake.

This private location was discovered and bought on sight with the specific intent as a healing retreat for the staff and associates of The Packard Institute, Inc. Generations have realized the immensely therapeutic and deeply healing qualities of this sanctuary. We have hospitality staff nearby that are on call for any needs. We are huge fans of our "Nature Coast," and are honored to share the experience. Ask staff for recommendations. We're dedicated to you enjoying your vacation experience. We have a bay window opening from the master bedroom to the Florida room, lanai, pool, and lake beyond. Guests can enjoy the sunrise and experience the lake come alive each morning from this foyer. It's a unique feature folks tell us they really appreciate. New in 2024: Completely redesigned landscaping with cactus gardens and artwork installations by famed local sculptor David Willis.

Cedar Lake is the hidden jewel of the Nature Coast. Visit nearby Green Key Beach (now dog friendly)! Whether you're alone or with your honey, this hidden gem offers a multitude of possibilities for relaxation, solitude and fun. The most obvious choice, of course, is soaking up some rays, taking a swim or walking hand-in-hand along the shore. Key Vista Park offers many private and secluded beach coves to set up in and watch your dog frolic in the water. We prefer our beaches to the crush of those south of us! HDTVs w/DVD & 1000s of Movies and Channels via Roku, but the true attraction is the spectacular nature show out on the lanai. Basic kitchen. Linens and towels provided. We are pet-friendly (please get your pet pre-approved at booking). Secure and private 1/4 acre fenced in lakefront yard - perfect for your well-behaved dog, with pet-doors installed to the lanai, Florida room, and garage area. Pool and lawn service included. Premium 400 mbps internet included. Hop on one of the many bikes or kayaks and discover the Nature Coast. They are included without any extra charge - we only ask that you use them with great care and return them clean and in repair. Please check us out on a satellite map - the location and setting will speak for itself. Try zooming in on the island... imagine the sounds. Right down the road is New Port Richey's best kept secret: the James E. Grey Preserve. These 80 acres boast over 140 species of birds, and some of the best kayaking in Florida. Explore the Jay B. Starkey Wilderness Park. The park's multi-purpose trail consists of 7.3 miles of paved surface for bike riding.
