About this cottage rental

Close to downtown Melbourne and the beaches and approximately an hour to Orlando theme parks and Cape Canaveral, this cottage faces the Indian River Lagoon where dolphins cruise, schools of fish swim, and birds hang out. Sit on the deck, enjoying your favorite beverage, while gentle breezes come off the Atlantic or have lunch on the outdoor eating area under the oaks. Light and airy, the cottage is open floor plan with a living area, kitchen, bedroom and bath. Washer/dryer is onsite.

Please note the cottage is on our property. You'll walk by our home to get to the cottage, which is closer to the river. Note: We can't see into the cottage, can't see you when you're on the deck, and protect your privacy (unless you need us). Some of our guests prefer it that way and many will engage us if we're outside. We do have 2 rescue beagles who are on leash in the backyard. They like 'pets'; please feel free to respond to their requests!

While there is a dock on the site, it is not available to guests at this time.

This location allowed for three days of pure relaxation and escape from stressful life style - watching the Indian River, enjoying a fine breeze, and feeling all is good. Everything we needed is there - Just brought food and drink, and personal items. The screened porch and the deck provided a quiet, relaxed time. Host and hostess are friendly. And we saw and heard two SpaceX launches from a distance! If we could give it a 5+++ we would.

This was a very peaceful spot. We really enjoyed watching all the wildlife, pelicans, cranes, dolphins, etc. Being so close to the water was a plus, we even did a little fishing and caught a few things. The sunrises and sunset were perfect to watch also. We will be back for sure.

Over all the house is in a good location far enough away from the train track so that you don’t hear it with windows closed. They have two Bassett hounds between the main house and the VRBO unit. There is a fraternity house that is relatively close which seems to only party on weekend nights and the music ended around 10pm. Your unit is located approximately 200 feet from the driveway behind the main house overlooking the bay. I had only one issue with the unit. I’m 6,2” tall and the shower head is placed about 5’5” high in the shower. This is fixable and wouldn’t stop me from coming back.
