Get ready to fall in love with Florida at our comfy seven-bedroom home with a pool heated to 85 year round :-). It's set on an acre of waterfront land, perfect for any size group looking for a bit of luxury and a lot of fun. You can splash about in the pool, try out some water sports from our private dock, or chill around a backyard campfire. We've worked hard to make our home a place where you'll create memories to last a lifetime, offering the best of Florida's lifestyle and hospitality.

Hmm, what can I tell you about our home. First off, you're going to LOVE waking up to the stunning sunrise over the Banana River from our home. We've got a heated pool enclosed for year-round swims and a private dock for a paddle or two. And guess what? The gorgeous Cocoa Beach is just a 10-minute drive away.

There's a ton to do around here. Try a boat tour to see dolphins and manatees, visit the Kennedy Space Center, or just chill on Cocoa Beach. After a day out and about, come home and fire up the grill in our screened lanai. It's a great place to hang out and enjoy the Florida evenings.

We're right on the ICW, so watching boats float by is a regular pastime. The end of our dock is a killer spot to watch the sun and moon rise. You might even catch a rocket launch from NASA! If you're up for a bit of a drive, Orlando with its Disney and Sea World is down route 520, but without the traffic stress when it's time to head back.

Our place has air conditioning, heating, free WiFi, toiletries, linens, towels, and a washer/dryer just to name a few of the essentials.

Beware for people my age - the loft bedroom has a narrow/steep ladder staircase, so it's best for the whippersnappers. Also, you might have a hard time locating the first floor bedroom with two queen beds. I promise we didn't misplace it, it's just off the garage with 2 private entrances :-)

If you feel like sticking close by, we've got some neat beaches and local attractions like the Cocoa Village and Brevard Zoo. For the golfers, there are some nice courses nearby. The Treetop Trek and Ulumay Wildlife Sanctuary are also worth checking out.

Oh, and while we can fit up to 20 cars in the driveway and lawn we don't allow parties or events without prior notice and appropriate insurance riders, so let us know!

We can't wait to have you here!

Our neighborhood has it all and our spot right on the ICW makes it even better. Just grab a chair and watch the boats float by. And don't miss the views from the end of the dock - it's the perfect spot for watching the sun or moon rise, and you might even catch a NASA rocket launch.

When you're ready for some action, Orlando's fun (think Disney, Sea World, and more) is just down 520. The best part? You get to skip the traffic when heading back home.

Thinking about hitting the beach? Head over to Cocoa Beach. Trust me, it's worth the extra 4-minute drive. They've cleared all the rocks from the surf area, so your feet will have nothing but soft sand. Enjoy!

Just a heads up - you're going to need a car while you're staying with us, since we're not smack in the middle of a bustling town. The closest grocery store, a Publix, is about 7 miles north of us, and if you're a fan of Wal Mart, you'll find one about 9 miles away. It's all part of the charm of being on our peaceful island here in Florida :-)
