The house is about a half mile from the Town of Welaka's public boat ramp. So bring your own boat and use the covered boat slip equipped with a boat lift.
For those with mobility issues walking up and down stairs, we have installed an outdoor lift that will take you to the 2nd story of the house, instead of having to take the stairs. Please note that the house itself is not wheelchair accessible. In addition to using the lift to take yourself to the 2nd floor, it can also be used to send up your groceries, luggage and take food up and down to the grills!
On the 2nd floor you will find the open concept kitchen, living room & dinning room, 2 bedrooms & 1 full bathroom with vanity, tub/shower combo. Large Glass windows and sliding glass doors allows for plenty of natural light and great views of the river!

The 1st bedroom upstairs has 2 sets of bunkbeds. And the other bedroom has a queen size bed. In the closets there are a few extra indoor folding chairs with comfy cushions and foot rests, should you need additional seating. There are also 2 queen size blow up mattresses, if additional beds are needed. Plenty of linens & towels are provided.

In the backyard overlooking the river you will find 2 docks, with electric, lights, water, a large fish cleaning station, and crab traps for you to use. Fish right from the dock, there are plenty of rod holders. If you bring your own boat, we have 1 covered boat slip with a boat lift you can use.
In the backyard there is also a large uncovered patio with a firepit, charcoal BBQ grill, dinning table and several umbrellas. On the covered patio there is a gas BBQ Grill, along with 2 bars with 4 bar chairs, ceiling fans & outside shower (perfect for showering off after a day of boating & swimming!)
