*5min to KSC*10min to Cruise Ships*15min to Cocoa Beach*

For those who are contemplating the rv/travel trailer/camper/“tiny house” living lifestyle...
For those who want a UNIQUE overnight stay instead of a BORING HOTEL ROOM...
For those who need a quick/inexpensive place to sleep before their cruise...
For those visiting Florida and passing through...

THIS "VACATION IN AN RV" experience is JUST FOR YOU!!!

There is a master bedroom (with queen bed), a bunkhouse with 3 smaller/kid sized beds, and a futon/couch in there as well. There is also a couch in the living room area that converts into a bed. The dinette also converts into extra sleeping space.
The bathroom contains a compost toilet which is easy to use. Instructions are located on the bathroom sink.
The camper is located on the driveway of a residential lot. The neighborhood is quiet. It is located just 5min. away from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center so when there’s a rocket launch, you can watch it directly from outside. (Sometimes you can even feel the rumble). This is a shared space. The front yard is available for kids to play. The backyard is currently under construction so will be off-limits for the time being.

Another plus is that the location is prime if your visiting Florida. We are just 45min from Orlando, but you’ll be away from the hustle and bustle of the city. We are also just 15min from the famous Cocoa Beach and 10min from Cape Canaveral where the cruise ships leave.

1 night stay

It was nice for the couple of hours of sleep needed before the cruise. I am glad my kids brought blankets because there were none on the bunk beds. But honestly we were there for 7 hours it did what we needed.

Great stay and host was wonderful.

I must say this was an amazing place to stay. It was very clean and the host was amazing at responding to messages quickly. It was very convenient for us to get to the port. This is only my second VRBO but i must say it was the best for cleanliness and location for the port. We will definitely stay here again and have already recommended it to friends going on cruises.

So close to KSC / Good place for kids

I highly recommend this cabin to anyone! It’s just minutes away from Kennedy Space Center, and we had the amazing experience of watching a rocket launch right from outside the cabin.The bunk beds are best suited for kids or shorter adults, and the couch in the living room can also be turned into an extra bed for shorter adults. The owner is super nice and very responsive via text. Since they live in Titusville, they’re close by in case anything comes up during the day.As with any cabin stay, the toilet setup takes a little getting used to, but you’ll adjust after a couple of days. There’s also a treehouse and a swing out front, which is perfect if you’re traveling with kids. The area is very quiet at night—ideal for relaxing.It’s definitely a fun and unique place to stay!

Clean and Quaint

Camper was in great clean shape and nice! Only downside is there is no plumbing hookup for the camper toilet, so it is just a composting toilet. That is our only dislike!

Great first stay in an RV

This was our first time staying in a RV and we’re glad we chose this one! It is beautifully presented and decorated, with lots of lovely little touches. It is well equipped and we were able to self cater even in the small space! Our kids (4.5yo and 17mo) appreciated being able to use the outside space, as well as the toys and books inside. Melinda could not have been more helpful and friendly, and was everything you could want from a host. The area is extremely quiet and peaceful, very close to the Kennedy Center. There aren’t many local amenities (shops etc) so bring groceries with you.

Glamping on Space Coast

I cannot say enough good things about this trip! We stayed 4 nights. We had 3 adults, 2 littles and an infant. LOVE our hosts!! Even comes with built in kid friends for playground! One word of caution... Glamping is still a form of camping - so if you love to camp and you have camping accommodations in mind, you will LOVE it! We had plenty of hot water for showers and all the conveniences of modern living. I think the compost potty is BRILLIANT! The down side of our visit was all the native Floridians (mosquitos) wanting a piece of us.... I'm writing this while soaking in a nice collodial oatmeal bath LOL If you have never RV'd or Glamped - give it a GO! OH!!! And did i mention??? We FELT & SAW the NASA launch from the yard!! SO MUCH FUN!! Thank you Sosa Family! We love you like our own!
