Great Stay!
We had a great family vacation and plenty of room and stuff to do for our children aged 6-16. Temps ended up being much cooler than expected and had some rain, but we still enjoyed the heated pool and games!

Amazing house on the Space Coast
A wonderful house with all you could possibly need to take advantage of everything the area offers. It is well-appointed and there are beach toys, games, bikes, and kayaks for excursions from the dock. We saw dolphins and manatees behind the house every day. We brought our own boat and tied up to the dock for the week. With quick and easy access to the Atlantic, a short trip to the best rocket launch viewing, and some nearby sandbar spots, it is an excellent location for boaters. The property managers were great to work with and the arrival and departure processes were incredibly easy. Highly recommend.

Pre Cruise
From the moment we walked in the door, we knew we had chosen the right place. The view and setting of the house was wonderful. We were able to relax and enjoy the much-needed downtime before our cruise. The kids enjoyed the pool we were able to have family-style meals and watch the sunsets setting by the fire. We dubbed the little watch dogs name Oscar. (he is part of the decor) Great Host and House. Could not have asked for anything better.

Nice experience! Beautiful home with everything you could need.
Nice experience for a family get-a-way. This beautiful home has a bit of everything you would need. Daily sunrises and sunsets were fabulous on the deck. The communication process with the property manager was seamless and professional and kind. We would stay here again! We would make one recommendation that a king sized bed be added to main bedroom. :)

Perfect Choice!
Great choice for my husband and I. This house has it all. Weve stayed at many VRBO locations throughout FL and i would say this house ranked as one of the best for us. Loved the back porch, chairs, lights at night, watching the fish and birds in the canal and of course, the pool. Well stocked kitchen. Clean. Quiet neighborhood. Would definitely stay there again.

The photos don't do the property justice.
This was my first time renting a home with an on-line service and it made me a believer. From the beginning I asked a lot of questions and Jared responded within a day, each time. He offered suggestions of local activities and restaurants in the area.
The house looks great in the photos, but they don't do the home justice. All of the furnishings looked as though they were locally sourced, based on a day of shopping in the area, making the home feel cozy and a part of the beach lifestyle. The size was perfect for my family of 5 adults, we never felt crowded or on top of one another. We spent a good portion of the long weekend in the pool and patio area. The fans over the covered portion helped keep us cool in the extreme Florida heat, when we weren't reliving our younger days, enjoying the pool.
The only thing that would have made our stay better is if we could have stayed a few extra days.
I thank the hosts for the beautiful listing. I absolutely recommend this home to anyone looking for a place to feel relaxed and at home while enjoying the best part of life in Florida, fun in the sun with family and friends. Yes, we would rent here again.
Thanks for the memories!

Merritt Island Christmas
Generally, this is a great place to make vacation. Communication to the host was easy and responsive. House is super clean, furniture, in and outside of high quality, size of the house is generous, so is the outside area. Barbecue is available, unfortuntely without proper light support after sunset. The light is one of the few critic points, next to the bed sizes. Every light in the house, beside the kitchen area, is kind of "in-direct", which is a little disturbing. Dinner table (beautiful decorated), no direct central light over the table. Bed room light switch, it is there, but no central light, so one always has to find the way to the bed to turn on the light on the bed stand. Bed size master bad was our main critic point. We are an older couple, so a small queen bed is not very convienient for us, same in the second bed room, this would be our reason, and actually the only reason, for not coming back. For this price, I just expect to have a king size bed, at least in the master bed room. Outside pool is not heated, which no one would expect, BUT, when you travle during winter time, a nice thing to have, we could not use the pool, which was one of the reasons to rent the house. Our grandson lives close, and we wanted to have fun with him in the pool, which wasn't possible. In all fairness to say, there were the coldest 3 first days we had in Florida since decades, so no chance for the water to heat up again. Here to say, nothing one can expect, but would be lovely to have for the (high) price you pay. Over all, great location, wonderful house, super friendly and communicative host, but would not rent it again, at least not in the winter time.
