The Launch Pad-Watch rockets from the yard! Specials 4 snowbirds & professionals

We’re NEW! Open for bookings March, 2026, We cater to SNOWBIRDS, Travelling PROFESSIONALS & Competitive SURFERS! Your price will be much lower than what you see listed. So be sure to inquire!

Our “Launch Pad” comfortably sleeps up to 5 people. We chose this location because it's very convenient and it's so fun to run outside when you hear the rumble to watch the ROCKETS soar up into the sky! It is also close to VARIOUS BEACHES and many other popular places. Our location is a few blocks from Highway 50 and US-1. Our closest ocean beach is Playalinda, about 15 minutes away. Visit Cocoa Village or Cocoa Beach in about 30 minutes. New Smyrna Beach in 45, Daytona Beach in 50 minutes. There are also beaches on the intercoastal river such as Sand Point Park which is less than 10 minutes away.

ATTENTION SURFERS! The Point Surf Park is a huge new wave pool complex opening in 2026! It's an hour and 10 minute drive. Check it out at https://surfparkcentral.com. WALT DISNEY WORLD is roughly an hour away. The Orlando INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT is a 40-minute drive as is the University Central Florida in east Orlando. We are located 4 miles from I-95. There is a Publix grocery store, Walmart and various shopping and eating locations which are within 1 to 4 miles. There are several access points to fish from on the intercoastal waterway plus FISHING AND BOATING CHARTERS AND RENTALS at the local marinas. Don’t forget the KENNEDY SPACE CENTER Visitor Complex is only a 15-minute drive!

You will find our small home is very comfortable and absolutely clean. We have 3 bedrooms, one full bath and the kitchen is very well equipped. There is a fenced in breezy back yard with a big shade tree plus a small Webber charcoal grill. Charcoal is even provided if you want to cook outdoors! We provide HIGH SPEED INTERNET too.

The house is located roughly 10 miles directly west of the real NASA launch pad in a quiet neighborhood where you can watch frequent launches by simply walking out to the yard. Another option is to take a short 20 minute walk to the Indian River Lagoon park to watch the rockets go up across the intercoastal waterway. Yea, no fighting for a parking space! Check out our full amenities listed on this site for more details.

We think you will find our Launch Pad has much to offer and is very unique. Our favorite waterfront place to eat and enjoy live entertainment is Pier 220. ITs at the causeway which is another great place to view the launches from.

We will be posting more house pictures and information about the Titusville area soon. We are always happy to answer any questions you may have!

We are a retired couple living on the west side of the state in an area called the Nature Coast. We have enjoyed being vacation rental hosts on VRBO for almost 15 years. We have had a consistent 5-star rating since we opened The Daydream Cottage located in Homosassa, Florida. However, we frequently visit family on the east coast and we like the small-town atmosphere of Titusville. This led us to open the Launch Pad. We are very excited to, finally be able to offer our guests a “space on the Space Coast” as well! We know most of the close neighbors around us at the Launch Pad and they are all great neighbors who have lived here for many years. The neighborhood is diverse and very peaceful.

To check out our sister-property on Florida's west coast, search for the Daydream Cottage at www.VRBO.com/427581.

Your hosts are Glenn and Laura and we thank you for choosing the "Launch Pad!

Liked: Cleanliness
The house was very nice and check in was seamless. The bedrooms aren’t very big, and can only fit a small bed each. No tv in the bedrooms, but there’s no cable so it doesn’t matter. The internet is great and we were able to work as needed. Evenings were perfect for the fantastic screened back porch. We spent every evening and every morning out there. My only complaint is that I would have preferred to have been informed about the additional pet fee online prior to agreeing to, and paying for the unit, rather than getting a message from the homeowner after I reserved the unit informing me I needed to pay her direct. It was a minimum fee of 50.00 directly to the homeowner, but it seems that should be part of the upfront agreement. That being said, I still recommend this place. The lady has a beautiful home and it’s in a convenient location. She’s also very friendly and easy to deal with.
