Great property, the kitchen and household goods very well stocked. Pool was wonderful and the perfect temperature. Convenient location. Would recommend staying at this property.
We are a senior sibling group, 3 couples who immensely enjoyed the pool, house and area. The house had all we needed, great coffee bar, excellent appliances, spacious rooms, handy washrooms and did I say an amazing heated pool.Beach gear and pool toys were a bonus. Great spot to sun, swim and relax
We came to Florida to see our family and enjoy a break. As usual we had a fantastic time in a wonderful home. The owners are wonderful to deal with and have made staying there easier than our own home. If I had one complaint, itâs that we couldnât have stayed longer.
The home was very nice and clean. Had everything you needed. Really enjoyed the old school milk shake maker. The owner was very friendly, responsive and helpful! Definitely would recommend and stay there again.

We had a great time at this rental. Pool is great and kitchen well stocked. Corner lot so there was some car and bus activity, with just a little added noise. Overall it was a great location between Orlando and Cocoa Beach which was exactly what we needed. We would rent this property again!
We absolutely loved staying in this house for a week! The house was perfect for our needs and we loved being so close to Kennedy Space Center and Cocoa Beach! My family is me, my husband, 14 year old daughter, 3 year old daughter, and 2 year old son. I definitely had to keep the little ones away from breakable things. My older daughter appreciated having her own room when the little ones got loud. We all loved the pool and the nostalgia of the house was wonderful. The host was amazing, very helpful and friendly. Thanks so much for a great stay!!
Renting the Birdhouse provided a relaxing, stress-free vacation for us. The 5 of us who stayed there found the home clean, roomy, well-stocked, and welcoming. The location was perfect for our adventures to mini-golf, Kennedy Space Center, Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, Fat Donkey ice cream, Sunset Cafe, Playalinda Brewery, Brevard Veterans Museum, etc. From the side yard, we had the added advantage of viewing the Artemis launch!! Thanks so much Joanne and Mike!
We had two families stay for a softball tournament at the Space Coast Complex. Anything that you would need or want to do is within a very short distance. The property is immaculate and has all the amenities you will need.
Our hosts were great. Joanne and Mike were super responsive to all of our questions and the one issue we had. They responded immediately to us.
Thank you for sharing your home with our families.
There are as many proâs as conâs to the property...youâll have to decide whatâs important. First, the home is immaculate! Very clean and well stocked. The beds are HORRIBLE. Not a single one of us got a good nights sleep. If you like sleeping on wood slab, youâll love it. The pool is amazing and perfect...if you can get past the two apartment complexes that look directly into the backyard...and the constant noise of cars coming and going from the parking lots. The immediate area is just ok...I wouldnât let my kids stay in the car while I ran into the gas station though (actually was approached by a sheriffâs deputy investigating an âincidentâ on our 3rd day there)...but beyond the immediate area there are a lot of restaurants and a Walmart. The home is 20 minutes from the closest beach access (when I read âminutes from the beachâ in the description, I was thinking more like 5-10). However, that beach access was perfect! Never crowded and easy to get to. Plenty of space, but the bathrooms could use some updating.
Again - take the amazing with the less than desirable...for as little as they charge, youâll have a nice clean place to stay, well stocked, with an amazing private pool and a 20 minute drive to the beach!
Property was clean, comfortable, and very convenient for my business trip and launch viewing attempt. Great location for access to NASA Kennedy Space Center. Host were very easy to work with and accommodating. I would not hesitate to stay at this property again.
Our trip combined 2-3 days each at Kennedy Space Centre and the Universal parks with the rest spent at the beach and Merritt Islandâs incredible nature reserve locations. Fishing opportunities are fantastic too but I just ran out of time. The Bird House had everything we needed with lots of space, especially the main open plan living area which is huge. Excellent communication and support from the owners whoâs relaxed and trusting approach is a breath of fresh air that befits the Merritt Island vibe. It is clear that they want their guests to have everything they need to guarantee a great holiday, and for us it was certainly âmission accomplishedâ.
We had no idea how weâd like Merritt Island. Our location was great! 15 minutes to the charming village of Cocoa, Cherrie Down Park Beach. Close to Space Center and M. I . National Wildlife Center. The happy me was comfortable and the hostess left many items to make the stay better. Absolutely, the best coffee making station ever. The owner was responsive to any questions that arose.
This new getaway spot was so perfect for me and my wife this trip combined a 30 year anniversary getaway plus seeing a grandchild and son which move down here recently the accommodations were excellent it was close enough to the water at a perfect distance from my son which wouldâve probably tried to butt in and stay over because of the amenities I didnât let that happen but I want to say thank you for your hospitality definitely will place this is our new getaway spot to stay again thank you
This was a great rental. Great location for what we wanted to do. Plenty of restaurants and grocery stores to pick from. Very clean, comfortable beds, nicely stocked kitchen. Great outdoor space too!
