Great house within walking distance to the beach

Over all great property. Only issue was that there was no oven or enough pots and pans to feed the 8 people staying in the home. Could not cook meals at the house but we only stayed for 2 days.

Great place- great price!

We stayed 3 nights with our 3 teenagers. Spacious accommodation, recently decorated, walkable to beach, smart tv and reliable WiFi. There is no oven and limited utensils- but lots of restaurants/eateries deliver to the door. We all had a fabulous, relaxing time- loved cocoa beach as well!

Perfect spot before boarding Cruise

There were 7 of us that fit comfortably. Just stayed for a couple of days before going on our cruise. Close enough to walk to the beach! Really close to the port. It worked out great!

About the host

Hosted by Chad Morin

I'm Chad, owner of the house that I still use to vacation and relax in. I grew up in this house and we are now 3 generations of Cocoa Beach natives, and invite you to enjoy beautiful Cocoa Beach in my home as my guest!

Why they chose this property

Welcome to Station 450! My Grandmother was part of the Space Program working at Partick Space Force Base (then called the Eastern Guided Missile Test Range) in the Tech-Lab helping develop the ICBM's and Manned Space Rockets sharing offices with all the top scientists. My Grandfather worked for Pan-American who had all the contracts developing the missiles for the US Air Force, the house has been host to several Astronauts, parties and dinners all related to the Space Race. My mother and aunt grew up in this house, I grew up in the house and now my daughters and grandchildren will be able to visit the house and keep it in the family.

I have renovated the house to give it the feel of a mix of a Tropical Resort with clean lines and simplicity, while still feeling comfortable and holding on to the rich family and local history.
