It is nestled in the heart of Merrit Island and with all of the natural beauty right at your doorstep you will forget your are only minutes away from numerous restaurants and local shopping.
The second story balcony overlooks the beautiful Banana River with miles of fishing and recreation areas. This truly is a fishermen and boaters paradise. You will see extrordinary sunrises and the sparkling lights of Cocoa Beach and Port Canaveral. Watch as the Cruise ships come in and out of the port. You are reminded that they are getting ready to depart when you hear their horn blast at 4:30 pm.
The central florida theme parks are just a forty five minute drive from the island. The port shopping and dining experience is a must. Beautiful Cocoa Beach, historic Cocoa Villiage, golf, tennis, charter fishing, wildlife preserves, birding trails, county, state and national parks are also just minutes away.
This is the most perfect, private gathering spot to see the launches from Kennedy Space Center, as you grill outside and swim in the huge private pool. Lounge around the pool enjoying the view or you can watch the kids play in the pool from your own private master suite cabana located directly above the pool. You can fish right off of your own private 135 ft seawall or private dock. The dolphin are "always" swiming right at your pool deck and the manatee swim slowly by daily. You will see schools of fish meandering about while you watch the osprey dive for a snack. The water right at the sea wall will accommodate any pleasure boat up forty feet in length and shore power is available. Kelly Park which is only a mile away is a perfect place to launch your boat. Boat, jet ski and wind surf rentals are only a mile away as well.
