River front property

A great location across the river from the vehicle assembly building. We saw four rocket launches during our stay. Dolphin swam by almost everyday. The sun rises were gorgeous. The host and property manager are very friendly and responsive. The house has everything you need for great vacation.

A delightful 2 week respite from Ohio's winter

This home was perfect for my wife and I who were looking for a break from winter back north. The house is spacious and has all the amenities. The lanai and pool are outstanding as is the unobstructed view out over the Indian River Lagoon over the property's 200' seawall. We loved the deck from which we watched dolphins and pelicans feeding as well as stingrays in the clear shallow water below. We saw 3 nighttime launches from the Cape, 2 in one night! This is really the perfect place to watch, from the comfort of your vacation home. We are birders and this was a great base from which we could explore Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, Blue Heron Wetlands, the Enchanted Forest and the other nature preserves of Brevard County. The house is just as it is advertised. It is an older home but has maintained very well. Looking at the Reader's Digest Condensed Books from the 1960s, you can travel back in time. That said, it had all of the amenities that we needed - a well stocked kitchen down to coffee grinders and blenders; a great covered patio by the pool where we watched sunrises; spacious rooms including the master bedroom and the family room/dining room. It was also tastefully decorated with art and artifacts that look like they have been lovingly collected over the years. Bob was great as the caretaker, available and accessible when we needed him. The approach to the house again is as it is advertised through a older mobile home park.We had a great stay!

Enjoyable stay

The property is really nice and the view is amazing. We enjoyed fishing and we especially enjoyed the space launches(we had never seen one before). The property manager was very responsive and helpful. The only concern was the dirty floor in the TV sitting room. The rest of the home was spotless.

Another great stay!

We always enjoy our stay here! It is clean and well maintained thanks to Missy and Bob who are great! Love to see dolphins from the pool area and the deck. Convenient to local shops that include Publix, Winn-Dixie, Target and Walmart, and local attractions like Kennedy Space Center, Port Canaveral, Cape Canaveral, Twistee Treats and beaches. Kids took a surfing lesson at Ron Jon's which they enjoyed. Looking forward to returning next summer!

Baseball stay

We stayed at the house for a few week while our boy(s) played in a tournament at Space Coast Complex. The house was somewhat dated but clean. There were sugar ants in the kitchen and we had to go get some spray and ant traps. We made sure we booked a home with a washer and dryer because we were there playing baseball and would need to wash uniforms often. Upon arrival we were told we could only do one load of laundry every other day due to the age of their septic/well. Well that doesn’t work with 2 boys playing baseball all week. Overall, the stay was ok but the property definitely needs some updating.

Quiet Place to Relax

This was our second time staying at this home. First time was back in June 2022. Amazing view of KSC and rocket launches. Close to the beautiful Playlinda Beach. We saw dolphins almost every day. House is well equipped with laundry supplies and kitchen necessities.

Awesome Place!!!

This house sits right on the river. Absolutely beautiful views everyday! Launches directly across the river that are watchable from the great sized dock. Can watch manatees and dolphins also. The pool is the perfect temperature for the hot weather and the house is huge and beautiful!! Can’t wait to stay again!!!

Beautiful location

Everything you need is within five miles. Groceries, gas, restaurants, auto parts, bait. Etc. the peace of being on the water is amazing. Large dinner table for gathering around or putting puzzle’s together and playing games with a crowd. Kitchen well supplied. Watched a launch and visited the local Moose even. Just a few miles from the port even. Enjoyed it so much.

Paradise

The property is fantastic. The best part is the location and the lani. We spent most of our time on the lani looking at the river and the Kennedy Space Center. We saw 5 launches in three weeks. Dolphin and manatee were swiming in the river. It is conveniently located to many good restaurants. I can not say enogh good things about the property.

Week with family

My husband and i spent a week with my daughter and five grandchildren. Close to space center and cocoa beach. We saw two launches and kids enjoyed the pool. Felt like a home, well stocked with everything we needed and lots of space. Felt a little strange driving through an older trailer park to get to the property, but the trailer park residents were very quiet and seemed friendly. Lots of privacy at the house!

What a great last-minute getaway!

The house has everything you need for a restful stay, fully equipped with anything you may need as well. It was immaculate. Watching two launches was awesome from the front yard, too! You are literally an hour (if that) from Orlando, 20 minutes from the cruise port and NASA's Kennedy Space Center is just across the river. We plan on coming back next year for two weeks. Bob is the awesome property manager who is funny and darn good at what he dies. Quite a gem!

Indian River House

Great view of launches. House was well equipped and close to KSC. Caught a few fish off the dock. Lots of wildlife on the river and saw dolphins several times. Couldn't use the pool as it wasn't heated. Overall the property worked well for us as our main purpose was to see some launches. Saw 2 Falcon 9 launches.

3rd time's a charm

Thoroughly enjoyed our 3rd year in a row of 2 weeks summer vacation at this property. Saw dolphins at least once every day and a manatee once. Kids went fishing and net casting from the deck. Spent a lot of time in the pool, and we were fortunate to see 4 launches during our stay. Enjoyed the Kennedy Space Center again and visited the Warbird Air museum which was excellent. Would suggest deeper pocket fitted sheets for the king bed as it kept coming off and wrinkling up. During each of our stays here the AC has worked really well, just seemed to be less effective during the second week of our stay this time. Overall a great time and we look forward to returning!

Great place...only concern was that we were scolded for doing laundry. If that is an issue then place a note that states out of order. That is the only NEGATIVE about the entire stay. We will definitely be back. Beautiful Place!!!

About the host

Hosted by Kathy Arsenault

Our parents moved to Florida from Massachusetts in 1960 and designed our family home to be built on the beautiful riverfront property in south Titusville at a time when the space program was just beginning. My sisters and our families currently live in New Smyrna Beach (FL), Tampa (FL), and Tilton (NH), but Titusville will always be 'home' for us.

Why they chose this property

You will find serenity like nowhere else. Spend your days sitting on the patio watching for dolphin and just relaxing.
