Quiet local experience for area exploring
Based here while I explored the Refuge, Daytona Beach & Melbourne. Everything is just 5mins from the house to eat, get coffee etc. Just a 10min hop to Cocoa Beach. The waterfront location is quiet. I watched 2 rocket launches from the dock. Saw dolphins at sunrise. The kitchen was handy to prep breakfast & the host provided extras like bottled water & Q-tips. My favorite place was lying on the furry lounger to get some sun in the morning!

Perfect
This was absolutely perfect for us. We just needed a one night stay after a cruise before our flight the next day. We originally booked the bottom apartment but they ended up having some damage from the hurricane. They went above and beyond and offered us the upstairs unit. It was very cozy and had a beautiful water view. We even enjoyed fishing from the dock and caught so many different fish and even saw dolphins both in the evening and morning.

Wildlife, rockets and sunrises, oh my!
The backyard is paradise! We enjoyed the river breeze while sitting on the dock. Relaxed watching the pelicans and a few dolphins. It is also the perfect place for coffee and sunrises. The dock is the perfect, unobstructed view to experience rocket launches. We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood. The house was clean and had everything we needed. We will definitely be returning!

PERFECT for Single or Couple!
This was such a cute place, had everything you’d need in a location that was peaceful and close to everything! The am’s having coffee on the dock and watching the birds and dolphins was so wonderful. The owner was super accessible for any questions! The neighbor to the right was very nice, it was fun watching him fish each morning! Perfect place for a small dog, the fenced in yard was great. I was able to have a peaceful place to sleep then go visit my parents about 12 mins away on the beach-the perfect set up. The restaurants are close by, a quick drive. I’ll definitely book here again when visiting my parents!

We were only able to stay here for two nights during a busy trip to the area. We chose this location so that we could unwind on the dock directly on the river. It was very peaceful! It was easy to get in and communication was great.
