Buddy's is a diamond in the rough. New owners are slowly restoring this RV park. There's still a…read morelot of work to be done, but it's all shaping up beautifully. The folks residing here are friendly & tend to watch out for one another, which is reassuring. Located on Lake Rousseau, where the fishing is plentiful. They have a small bathhouse (1 shower) & a nice laundry (3 washers @ $1.75/3 dryers at $1 per load). There's no cable & OTA is unreliable, but the wifi is excellent. TV channels are not consistent, but I really haven't missed watching it very much. Although I do watch a few channels occasionally, it's given me a great opportunity to catch up on some reading. Speaking of reading, there is a book exchange area in the laundry. These folks also own Big Bass Village RV down the road, so you can't always catch someone in the office, but the manager (Suzie) got back with me very quickly when I emailed her from the address on the website. I think the owners are really working hard to make this a beautiful place. It has great potential, it's VERY reasonably priced (lower than anyone else in the area), & are quick to answer questions or suggest sights/views/restaurants. I'm really glad that this was the RV park we chose for our stay in this pretty part of Florida.

We stayed here for five days in January. We had specifically came out to visit other RV'ers who…read morewere staying and recommended it. We really enjoyed our time in Cedar Key and this RV campground had some good and some bad. The RV campground is older and its layout was probably carved by organic growth, rather than pre-planned out. Driving our 36' RV around the RV campground was difficult and for the first time ever, I had to ask someone to move their car so I could park in the spot. The flip side is everyone is very friendly, they have an onsite restaurant, and oh yeah... beautiful waterfront sunset views. The family would head to a dock and enjoy some time watching the sun go down every day. During the morning dog walk, I would stop to enjoy the beautiful nature that surrounds the RV campground. This RV park had water, sewer, electric and cable hookups. There was a laundry room, which was clean and had some newer machines. The WiFi was good but not always reliable. I was disappointed to find there was no playground nor dedicated dog walk. When we did leave, I found it hard to leave. The town and the RV campground were very laid back. I never once felt stressed out during my stay, since Cedar Key is at the end of the road there was no road traffic or noise. Would I recommend this park? Absolutely. Would we come back? We are debating returning to Cedar Key in a month, but we will absolutely come back. Informational: We travel in a 36' Class A RV.

Good experience here. Stayed for the weekend, last minute. Place looks kinda "bates motel" but…read morehey, at a $55/nt pricepoint you can't ask for more. Room and linens were clean, shower was hot, beds were clear of bugs, A/C and heater work, and the TV had good cable and HBO. What else do you want. I can't give it 5 Stars obviously because it's just needs work and some TLC, but all in all it's a cheap warm place to stay if you're in the area. There's a restaurant and a bar next door, a subway, and a little Cesar's. Also 2 gas stations across the street. Only issue was the front door handles, they really need to be replaced with something more commercial....they were loose, and hard to unlock with the key. Seemed like residential locks, don't work for a motel and lack in that "secure" feeling. There are no deadbolts or swing locks from the inside, also a problem. Otherwise, not a bad deal.

When you inform air traffic in the area that you are landing, a local named Judy will answer to see if you need a ride to the tourers area. You have three options on getting to the tourist area.... * walk (Estimate a 20-30 minute walk) * get a ride with Judy. (She will give you her cell number. When you need to return to your plane, let someone from the local shops know and they will call Judy for you. Cell service on Cedar Key is bad bad bad. The cost for us was about $50 to and from with a tip. Kind of pricey) * golf cart (outside the runway fence are some golf carts. There is a number on the side to rent online. For our next visit, we will rent a golf cart so we can explore more places.

If you do not touch down in the first third of the runway do not be embarrassed about going around. Consequences of landing long or hot may be blown tires or a swim in the marsh. WE CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH.

The room (211) was spacious and had a great balcony with a view of the Gulf. It was clean and comfortable. The bed and pillows worked out great for us. The bathroom was also large and the shower had good water pressure. You can't get a nicer place for the reasonable price! I rated this five stars because it was almost perfect. The few small things I'll note so you are prepared in advance. No elevator so be prepared to haul your things upstairs if you are in the back building on the 2nd or 3rd floor. My husband is disabled so it was difficult for him to go up and down. Some mentioned they found supplies such as coffee, creamer, and sugar. We had none, but a cafe is just a couple blocks away as is a small grocer. The restaurant is not open due to the last hurricane. These are small things that shouldn't prevent you checking it out. We were very happy and would stay again.
