Nice stop overnight

This is a nice spot near Kennedy Space Center to park and sleep overnight. No signs saying you can't park overnight, but I wouldn't camp in a tent or start any fires. Parking is very limited but it's a pretty unknown spot so you shouldn't have any trouble getting a spot at night. You can park on the dirt across from the bathroom if you need to.

One night stay

This is a small parking lot at a hiking trail. It was perfect for an overnight stay. There are no signs that disallow overnight parking or camping.

Stopped over night.

5 parking spots , including one handicapped. There are no signs that disallow overnight parking or camping. Vault toilets and garbage. Somewhat noisy roadway next to the parking/ trail area, but that all went away into the night.
