Shipping Container Home near Jacksonville

Hello BP,

We currently have a small (20') shipping container home located in Jacksonville, FL. We have been searching for areas around northeast/central Florida and southern Georgia to relocate it. 

Our goal is to be able to have it be rented out on a nightly or weekly basis to vacationers. The container plugs into existing water/power/sewer utilities, and accommodates 2 adults comfortably. Earlier this year, we had it sited at a lovely location about a mile from the beach hosted by the property owner. The interest (not to mention the income) we generated in such a short time was surprised us. Ultimately we had to move it in lieu of the fact that it was in conflict with one of the community's zoning regulations.

I'm seeing if anyone out there in the BP Community has had any experience with this sort of project. I'm open to a wide spectrum of suggestions and out-of-the-box (no pun intended) ideas. If anyone is interested in partnering up, please don't hesitate to start a conversation.
