Her Sweet Tiny House in Amazing Tiny Home Community She Built in FL

Meet Jinkie, an inspiring tiny house advocate, community developer & tiny homeowner. Her search for a satisfying, simple lifestyle led her to the world of tiny homes, but she quickly learned about the legal barriers. Over the next several years, she worked to change the local laws and then developed Peacewind Cottage & Tiny Home Community in Cocoa, Florida. It's on a wooded, spacious property with a mixture of small cottages and tiny houses on wheels. Offers both lots for sale or rent, plus a selection of long-term rental homes. Jinkie lives in a charming 26' THOW with a large screened-in deck. It's situated on a large lot that she owns, with a fenced-in yard & an adorable red barn garage for her Mini Cooper.

Im 62 years old and I could definitely see myself living in a community like this one. I think it's a wonderful idea and it definitely addresses the home ownership crisis that we are currently living in.

I met her, and she is as sweet and powerful in person as she is on the screen. 🥰

I love this idea that people can own the land. That’s what I would prefer if I were to go tiny. I don’t like the idea of renting a lot. Well done!!!

This lovely Lady is SuperWoman! Her story, mission, and hard work is amazing! She's created a beautiful, peaceful place to live. I want to live there!❤

[eleanorcramer]

She is the answer to our questions on how to build communities of like minded individuals across the country and world.

Wow! This lady is amazing in all she has done and is doing. I'm relieved to know someone is fighting on our behalf to allow more tiny home communities everywhere. Tiny homes are only allowed in RV parks in my central Florida area with renting land is the only option. I'm glad she allows people to choose what is the best option for others. I hope and pray that one day there will be a tiny home community near my area where i work just like her community. One thing is for sure after watching this tiny home YouTube video I have hope just like her shirt spelled out. Thank you for sharing this with us and thanks for letting us know that people are going to the legislation about this great need for so many people!!!

Thank you, Jinkie! You are a blessing! Your work will certainly advance affordable housing opportunities to people across the nation. May God bless you!

I designed several of the homes in Peacewind. It’s so nice to see them being loved and lived in.

[jennifromdablock]

I am so impressed by this lady & her story...she is pure motivation on all levels. Thank you, Jinkie.💓💓

Jinkie, what a beautiful soul in you. Bravo for having such a vision and executing it. You are a living legacy.

[DawnOldham]

I’m hoping that she is compensated for her hard work in creating and staying active with Peacewind/Braveheart. She certainly deserves that. I’d hate for her to have to live in a van, away from her grown children for too many years!
I’m very excited about what she has accomplished and wish all of the residents all the best! ❤

[vickiescholl]

You should be so proud of yourself. You not only cared for you, but for others. Thank you.

[kathys]

I LOVE that there is a choice to OWN your land! Well done! Wonderful!

[leanneadams]

Someone once told me that “ you’re not going to make it “ and “ it’s a mistake and bad idea “. Well just like this cool woman it just made me work even harder to see that they were WRONG !!! I’d love to live there and share similar stories with my neighbors. Perhaps someday. Until then…. Thanks for the video ! ❤️🏡💯

Kudos to Jinkie for taking on this huge challenge. It is something I would have loved to do where I live in Canada, but lacked the resources and energy. I am so thrilled to hear that Jinkie is now acting as a consultant and advisor and helping pave the way for laws to be changed to make tiny home communities - such a brilliant idea and SO needed in this day and age - a reality. It is not for everyone, but what a huge difference it can make for so many. Why is it that people cannot live how and where they want, affordably, especially in a place as beautiful and well-designed as Peacewind! I sure hope someone brings her up here to help us change our laws! Thanks for this wonderful video Alexis and Christian!

YOU GO GIRL . . . BIG CONGRATULATIONS on stepping into your Vision and Manifesting it so Magnificiently. I'm about to sell my Topanga home in Southern California and go Tiny. VERY EXCITED. Been Visioning for 5 years. Richest Blessings in your Next Creative Endeavors.

I so admire all of the work she has put into this and all that has been achieved. Just amazing. I, too, dream of having my own TH but I struggle to figure out how to afford it. I live in Denver where TH on wheels are not allowed, and any property for TH on a slab is just not affordable. I work with the unhoused and am still looking for a location where I can still do my hearts work, afford a TH and not necessarily have to also buy a car because that would probably break the budget. If I could figure that out, I'd pick up and move, and I'd finally achieve my dream.

[DanielPerella]

I could cry seeing this. It looks like a perfect oasis for us in the very near future. We live near Nashville and it’s growing out of control . We dream of a day where we can live in a warm place with less stuff and spend our days doing what we like instead of working too much to simply keep up. I’m not sure how much it’ll cost to transition to this but I hope I can pull it off. Thank you for the hope!!✌🏻

[marci]

Love your home and the tiny community!! The Pacific Northwest needs a community for tiny homes. ❤❤

This approach in diversification between renters and ownership is such a simple concept yet so rare.Thank you for making this happen legally. More success to you as you continue to be a voice for the right to live in the way we want to!
