Space
Perched at the southern tip of Merritt Island where the Indian and Banana Rivers meet, The River House at Dragon Point puts you right on the water – waking up to sunrises over the river, spotting dolphins and manatees from your deck, and stepping straight onto your private dock whenever the mood strikes. This is a home built around the outdoors, with every interior detail designed to keep the water in view.

Living space
Soaring vaulted wood beam ceilings draw your eyes upward the moment you walk in, while a full wall of windows frames the Banana River like a living painting. The open-concept layout connects the living and dining areas naturally, filling the space with Florida light and keeping the riverfront atmosphere central to every part of the home. A dedicated workspace and second workspace option mean those who need to stay connected can do so without giving up the view.

Kitchen & dining
The fully equipped kitchen is anchored by a spacious center island and stainless steel appliances, with everything you need for full meal prep – refrigerator, freezer, stove, oven, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker, blender, toaster, wine glasses, cooking basics, and a dining table for gathering the group. Whether you’re cooking a quick breakfast before a morning on the kayaks or sitting down to a proper dinner, the kitchen is set up for it.

Sleeping arrangements
Two king bedrooms and one queen bedroom sleep up to 8 guests across 3 bedrooms and 3 beds, each styled in soft coastal tones with natural light, bed linens, extra pillows and blankets, and clothing storage. The primary bathroom features a glass walk-in shower and double vanity, and the second full bathroom continues the same standard of comfort throughout.

Outdoor & dock
The rear deck is where the property really comes alive. Surrounded by palms and mangroves, it’s furnished for outdoor dining and relaxed evenings, with a BBQ grill ready for use. Three kayaks – two single and one tandem – are included for guests, launching directly from your private dock onto the calm river waterways. A fire pit rounds out the setup for cooler evenings under an open sky.

Practical details
The home is single-level with no stairs, making it accessible and easy to move through. You’ll find a washer and dryer on-site, high-speed WiFi, air conditioning and heating, a smart lock for self check-in, and free parking on the premises. Smoke alarm, carbon monoxide alarm, fire extinguisher, and a first aid kit are all in place. Long-term stays are available for guests who want to settle in for a while.
