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!

Relaxation and Peace
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.

Slice of paradise
This place is incredible. The dock made for a great place to relax, launch our paddle board from, and see some wildlife. It’s a perfect distance to cocoa village, cocoa beach, and more. We stayed for the bioluminescence & you could see some from the dock. The mattress was comfortable & plenty of pillows provided. My dogs loved the yard and dock. We will be back again!

My wife and I had a fantastic experience staying at Kathleen's property. We took the bioluminicent kayak tour which was very close by. We travel with our dogs so having the backyard was very helpful and it was such a beautiful view. The property was very clean and she had great communication on how to contact her if anything were to come up. Highly recommended!!

We had a great stay! The property was just as pictured and the neighborhood was quiet. We enjoyed late night kayaking to see the dinoflagellates and even a rocket launch! Would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to have a fun time in cocoa beach! Very close to everything!
