pretty nice for a 'fish camp'

Although the weather was cold, we had no complaints about this rental. The location was right on a canal with a lot of birdlife. Neighborhood was quiet, furniture was comfortable, and it was the cleanest rental we have ever stayed in.

Good Fishing

Very clean. Location was where we wanted for fishing. Mother nature was against a lot of fishing due to high water which made dock unusable so had to put in each time wanted to fish at city dock plus high winds - both can happen there anytime. Still had a wonderful time and caught lots of fish. Thanks Frank & Peggy

Relaxation

The place was super clean. 3 bedrooms, living spaces on both ends of the home with plenty of additional space on the enclosed back patio with a view of the canal. It was very quiet. I will definitely be looking forward to bringing all my kids and staying next year.

Relaxing and Fishing in Welaka

This awesome Welaka location and private home with boat dock suited our needs perfectly to enjoy our stay on the St. John’s River. Fishing on the river and checking out the manatees in Welaka Springs is right in your backyard. When not outside, we enjoyed the house which is tastefully furnished and impeccably clean. There was ample parking for our truck and trailer. Comfortable beds, good showers, smart tv, stocked kitchen if you cook in, laundry room, are all added pluses. Plenty of comfy area to relax inside, but the large screened in porch and the dock make for great happy hours and enjoying Florida’s awesome weather. The local host (owner) was easy to reach and very helpful, checking in and out process was easy. Highly recommend this property and would stay again in a heartbeat!
