About this property

Riverfront Views! Fishing and Boating on the St. John's River, Pool, Boat Slip, All New Furnishings!

We help make the most of your vacation by providing Free Admission to some of the area's top attractions each and every day! Create exciting memories, have more fun, and truly experience your destination!


Now with all new furnishings and decor, River Bend Condo B212 offers riverfront views of the magical St. John's River in the heart of "Old Florida!" Fishing enthusiasts are familiar with this secluded treasure in North-Central Florida which is renowned for water activities and under an hour from the Atlantic Coast, historic St. Augustine, Daytona Beach, and Gainesville! Nestled along State Forest and Wilderness Preserve, River Bend Condos sit right on a point where Little Lake George joins the St. John's River. Great fishing is found in the Ocklawaha River, directly across from the condo, as well as Lake George, Salt Run, and Silver Glen, just a short boat ride away. Views are enhanced by the location of this property along the inside of a northward bend in the river. Bring your own boat to launch from the backyard! Guests enjoy a private screened porch overlooking the river and an oak dotted lawn with pool. A boat slip and trailer parking is available, so you don't have to leave the property to get out on the water! Enjoy manatee watching, fishing, cookouts and sunbathing by the pool. Cook up your catch "at home" or take a short car or boat ride to nearby favorite local eateries!

The spacious second-floor condo has been freshly updated and features a two-level layout. Relax in the living room which opens to the screened porch with river views. Rest well in two bedrooms: The King bedroom has a river view and the second bedroom features two twin beds. Bathrooms are outfitted with soft white towels and starter amenities.

The St. John's River is the longest river in Florida and is unique in that it is one of only two rivers in the world which flow north. Fishermen will appreciate the location of this property near Lake George and the Rodman Reservoir, a trophy "bass factory" known for its giants. Local yearly events include Fishing Tournaments in the area, the Azalea Festival in March, Bostwick Blueberry Festival in April, and the Blue Crab Festival on Labor Day weekend.

Perfect stay for our family!

We stayed Monday-Monday. This condo was fully equipped with everything we needed. It slept my 14yo, 13yo, 9yo, 1yo, myself, my husband and my mom comfortably! We have stayed at Riverbend before and having the pool and somewhere to dock our boat is more than convenient. The pool and pool are was immaculate every day we went out! We had a wonderful week and plan to be back for the 4th of July next year. The only few things I could suggest needed room for improvement is the communication with check in and check out process, facelift/repair to the dock, and an ice maker. Also if you are going to have an abundance of food like crab legs around the pool a suggestion that that trash get taken out because it was extremely smelly the next day. Other than those few things our trip was PERFECT!

Could’ve Been Better

I know when renting a place you can’t expect hotel quality but there were a few things that made the experience less than desirable. One, the strongly scented linens. I know that for most people conventional laundry detergent isn’t a big deal but for those of us who lead a low chemical life style this is just overwhelming. My husband had headaches and had a hard time sleeping because the scent of the linen was so strong. Also, couldn’t enjoy the outside because the laundry room smell permeated into the pool area also. They were doing construction in a room directly below us, making it impossible for us to sleep in on vacation also. The kitchen utensils were not clean, I had to wash several pieces of silverware and baking sheets in order to eat. Again, I have stayed at several non hotel locations, this wasn’t holding the the standard that I have come to expect in cleanliness or peace. The area is beautiful with Spanish moss hanging from the trees and close enough to a near by town. It was overall nice and what was pictured the the fine tuning just isn’t there.

Great stay in our condo for the week.

Great stay in our condo for the week. When we arrived the check in was really simple and easy and the condo was clean and had all the amenities that one could want. Location on the property and views of the river was great. Looking forward for a return vacation next year.

Very relaxing

Our short vacation getaway has been great. This is our first time staying at the Riverbend Condominium's in Welaka, and hope to return. This private hideaway on the St Johns River is beautiful and peaceful. The condo is spacious and clean. Thank you. Aaron and Terry Thompsoo
