About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

*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.

Compost potty should be disclosed in listing
This is a small camper. The host was pleasant to work with and it’s close to Kennedy Space Center. It would have been sufficient enough had the host properly disclosed the compost potty. That means that there is no plumbing and there are instructions on the levers your need to pull to go number 1 or 2. We weren’t told of this until we were about to check in when the host was like “if that makes you uncomfortable, I suggest going when you are out and about.” It also makes the place stink. Other than that, it would have been good.

Disliked: Amenities
Arrived at site around 3:30 PM. Owner met us in her driveway; very pleasant. Trailer parked next to her home in a trailer park. Unit was very warm; AC only cooled kitchen/dining area. Tried to get comfortable in sleeping area; too warm for a nap. Second bedroom only suitable for children. Chemical toilet came with detailed instructions for peeing or pooping. Black mold on shower curtain. Owner requested limited time for shower to save water. Waited in unit for almost two hours to see if it got any cooler. AC was on continuously but it never got cooler in the sleeping areas. Had to check out to find cooler accommodation. No refund has been issued despite the fact that the AC did not cool.

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!

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 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.

Everything was excellent about this property. Melinda was great in communicating all the tiny details. The only recommendation from us would be to change the restroom facility to use water instead of bio degradable option considering if more than 2 people are accomodated in it, it will be really tough.

It was super close to Kennedy Space Center and spacious enough for our family of 5. Bathroom was tight for my over 6 ft husband but it was expected being its was a camper. Our children really enjoyed it a lot they had been wanting to try a camper for the longest time.

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.

Nice spot for night before Cruise.
Wife, Adult step daughter and I booked this property for overnight stay, night before Cruse. It was clean, convenient and as comfortable as any camping RV could be. It was perfect for our needs. Great check in instructions and excellent communication with host. A plus rating for me. Caught rocket launch also, amazing!!!
