Great stay

This was the perfect option for what we needed. My husband and I, with our 4 friends stayed here for a night before our cruise. It was perfect for what we needed and it was comfortable for the 6 of us to stay for a night.

Great location in a charming house with unique attention to details for guests, such as designated charging station, some books and toys for kids. It very much felt like a home. We look forward to coming back and staying longer.

Nice

We stayed here for literally a few hours before our cruise! Very warm and clean. It gave the feeling of your family house! The hosts communicated everything to do and it was simple. Only negative I have is they keep the air at 78, and the upstairs was very hot and didn’t cool off! Even turning the air down! Other than that great property!

This property was truly perfect for our family this past weekend in Cocoa. I was there for the Space Coast Triathlon, so I had gear with me, along with my wife and five children. The photos did not do justice to how spacious the place is. If you have kids, lots of gear with you, or both (LIKE ME), then this place is a must.Entering through the back, there is a large laundry and play room, with tons of toys for the kids, and easily accessible laundry machines with soap packets provided. The kids spent a lot of time playing in that room.The kitchen is a real, fully stocked kitchen with stainless steel cookware. We had two other families to the place the night before the triathlon (both of the other husbands were competing in the race) and we made a massive pasta dinner for all six adults and a LOT of kids. The kitchen was spacious enough to handle all of it.The outdoor space is massive. There's a full table on the front porch with seating for 4, but you can add more chairs around that table. Then there's a covered area in the side yard with a fireplace and even more seating. With the benches, tables, extra chairs, etc., we had the entire crew under the roof. The kids loved hanging out by the fire after dinner too.Upstairs in the house is more of the same story. The master bedroom has an entire room off the front side with a big futon, TV, desk, and two sitting chairs. The other two bedrooms had sizable walk-in closets.I'm hitting the character limit. A

Very homey & welcoming house within walking distance of Cocoa Village. Kelsy was a gracious & consistent communicator. Lovely space outside to enjoy the evening breeze off the river or a morning cup of coffee. Quiet neighborhood with interesting houses & gardens.. While many short term rentals feel sparse & souless this Indian River Getaway felt like a welcoming home. Happy to stay again & recommend to visiting friends.

Wonderful Stay at This Old House!

We stayed here for two nights ahead of our cruise and had a wonderful time! The renovated heritage house is darling inside; the pictures didn’t do it justice. There was a coffee station for our morning coffee, and the house was well equipped with everything one might need. The beds and pillows were very comfortable, and we all had a restful night’s sleep. There was only one shower, and the water temperature/pressure was the only thing that wasn’t perfect. It’s an old house, though, so that’s understandable. The neighborhood was a bit transitional with a mix of lovely and “needs repair,” but it felt very safe. The street along the river in the northerly direction was wonderful for walking. It was a short walk to the quaint old town of Cocoa, which we visited for dinner (Bar Americana) and coffee (Ossorio). Both places are recommended!Thank you, Kelsy, for your hospitality!

Vacation and Wedding in Cocoa

We had a family get together and wedding in Cocoa which was a great time had by all. We stayed in the " Charming Indian River Getaway" which was a prefect location near downtown and easy access to other locations like Merritt Island and Cocoa Beach. "This Old House" as referred to by the owner was quaint and well maintained, accommodated six adults very well. We loved the outside covered patio for family time. The weather was perfect and we enjoyed taking our morning walks on Indian River Drive and looking at the beautiful homes. If any of us are in the Cocoa area we will definitely be staying there again.

Lovely, unique home. Nice appointed. Beautiful furniture and relaxing, comfortable bedding. Great outdoor areas, close to water. Fit 8 easily. So much space. Unfortunately, the coffee pot had been broken by the previous guests, so we had to buy pod accessories that we wouldn't normally use. I'm sure that's

Great Place Before a Cruise

This place was nice and clean, character for days. The host was super awesome to deal with. Wish we had more time then just one evening prior to going on a cruise to enjoy this lovely place. You cant go wrong staying here, especially before a cruise, really close to Port Canaveral.

About the host

Hosted by Kelsy McKim

Host profile image
Hello, I am a stay at home mom raising three beautiful girls. My family and I moved to Florida in 2015 from Montana. It was quite a culture shock at first, however we have not missed scraping windshields. When we moved here we found a home that we absolutely fell in love with. It was built in 1938, the era of homes we love!! It had an apartment built above what used to be a 2 car garage, now storage. We were not too familiar with vacation rentals at the time, but we had a close friend running one in a mountain town in Montana. My husband asked to start running a vacation rental and I was a little hesitant at first, but jumped in with both feet. I have always loved meeting new people, making new friends, and love to have people feel at home. With all that being said, our little business has taken off and I couldn't be more elated! Come stay with us and just settle right in. 3r
