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!!

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!! ##### Sarah H.

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. ##### Trisha B. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Kristen H. 1 Jul 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication #### Overall ok There are as many pro’s as con’s to the property...you’ll have to decide what’s 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, you’ll 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 wouldn’t let my kids stay in the car while I ran into the gas station though (actually was approached by a sheriff’s deputy investigating an ‘incident’ 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 ‘minutes from the beach’ 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, you’ll have a nice clean place to stay, well stocked, with an amazing private pool and a 20 minute drive to the beach! ##### Kristen H.

Stayed 8 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Darren W. 24 Apr 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Excellent space coast base! Our trip combined 2-3 days each at Kennedy Space Centre and the Universal parks with the rest spent at the beach and Merritt Island’s 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 who’s 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 ‘mission accomplished’. ##### Darren W.

We had no idea how we’d 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. ##### Candace H.
