“Staying in a houseboat offers a unique perspective, and this particular one sits in an amazing location along the Merritt Island. The fact that the houseboat is relatively new adds a sense of freshness to the experience. A couple found the two-bedroom bungalow a worthwhile choice for their three-night adventure.”
