8.5mi from Palm Bay · 1 site
Relax in the cozy sitting area beneath a canopy of twinkling lights at this spacious, wooded site—less than 10 minutes from the beach!
The site sits on approximately 0.2 acres, located on a private lot behind our home, and includes a 16' x 48' asphalt-gravel pad next to full hook-ups. Additional privacy fencing is being installed in January to separate the site from the rest of the property, so it will soon be enclosed on three sides (the driveway to the back of the property is on the fourth). Photos will be updated once the fence is completed. In the meantime, there are plenty of trees on the site which do provide some privacy.
Along with plenty of beautiful trees for shade, the site includes its own private sitting area with a fire pit and hammocks, a picnic table, and a storage shed with beach supplies for guest use. There is plenty of room to pull in and park an RV of just about any size.
Conveniently located 1.3 miles from a shopping plaza with a Publix, Bealls Outlet, and several restaurants. It’s about 2 minutes from the bridge to the beach and roughly an hour from Orlando attractions.
This is a new site/listing, so I will be adding more details as needed. If you have any questions, please ask!
Disclaimer:
There are train tracks and an airport nearby. While we've grown to love the sound of the train and watching planes fly overhead (including the occasional military jet), we understand it may not be for everyone. There is very little “traffic” during nighttime and early morning hours, but if you are sensitive to noise or require complete silence to sleep, this may not be the optimal site for you.

There was a little plane and train noise, if that kind of bothers you, but it did not bother us. The site was level and accommodated our 13’ high rig. It was a little tight going through the gate. The site was clean. There was a cute sitting area with hanging chairs.
We would visit again. Thanks, Francine.

Was nice place to stay. I stayed a few nights seen 2 rockets shoot off. You are close to the space center and to cocoa beach. But it's just outside the busy area so you don't hear traffic or any other noise. Has water hookup which is nice. Few bugs but nothing unexpected or overwhelming. I would definitely stay another night. Also a plus there is a home in the circle with art cars and a fun lit up house at night. Everyone I met including the host were very nice. I might try to move to the area I was very impressed. Thank you again.

It’s a really basic parking spot, but the price is right for what it is. We were able to park no problem and enjoyed our chat with the other camper there. There is a sharp corner coming in to the neighborhood, but with a swing wide our truck and 32’ camper made the corner. The ground is pretty uneven so bring your levelers and chocks. We didn’t use the spigot since we had water on board so I can’t speak to that.
The best part was how close it was to the launch site! We went to a nearby bridge to watch the first launch of the night around 7pm; and we didn’t realize there was a second one happening the same night at 10:30 until our whole camper started shaking with the noise! We ran outside and caught the tail end of the launch from right outside our door. So cool!
The biggest downside of the site is the bug situation- there’s a water filled trench at the rear of the property and I’m sure it produces lots of bugs. Additionally there were lots of stray cats around and therefore cat poo in the sandy spots.
Overall we were happy with the spot for one night and the price!

Good site, very well located for Kennedy Space Center and nice price.
Be ready for small bugs!
We feel the ground shaking when there is a rocket launch!
Not a great cell coverage but it works.
Host is really responsive and helpful.

Good spot for checking out the space coast. Your rig will shake when a launch takes place! There is a sharp turn entering the neighborhood but I was able to make it without issue with my 43’ fifth wheel.

It’s a new hip camp with a lot of potential. Water hookup worked fine. You’re parking on grass and it’s not level - bring your leveling bricks and you’ll be fine. Prepare for mosquitoes.
