About this property
3BR 2BA riverfront condo with a boat slip
Rivercation is a fantastic three bedroom, two bath riverfront condo at Sportsman’s Lodge on the St. Johns River, a great spot for fishing, waterskiing, barbecuing, and so much more. Guests will have exclusive use of one boat slip (up to 26’ boat) and two parking spaces as well as shared use of the community pool. Next to the pool are gas grills and a fire pit shared by the community. This property is our personal vacation condo in Welaka, Florida, a small town on the St. Johns River just south of Palatka, Florida. The dock is just past the pool. You can see the river and the pool from the unit, especially the sun porch which has a game table perfect for cards, puzzles, and fun times enjoying the view.
This property is great for family vacations, getaways for girls or guys, and anyone escaping a harsh winter up north. The kitchen is well stocked with plenty of dishes, glassware and flatware. Small appliances include a coffee maker, microwave, toaster, and blender. The unit is on the second floor and may be accessed by stairs or elevator.
Welaka, is centrally located and is considered the fishing capital of Florida. We even have a professional fishing guide who lives at the property and is available for tours. This property is convenient to many destinations in Florida. Rivercation comfortably sleeps 6. We also have a sleeper sofa just in case you need it.
Bedroom 1 – has a king bed with an en suite bathroom with a double vanity, shower and linen closet.
Bedroom 2 – has one queen bed
Bedroom 3 – two twin XL beds. If requested when making your reservation, the twin XL beds may be made as one king bed.
The bedrooms have great mattresses, ample storage and lighting, and alarm clocks with USB ports for charging devices. The second bathroom also has a shower and linen closet with plenty of towels. We provide pool towels as well. The unit has a washer and dryer with basic supplies. Both bathrooms have dispensers with shampoo, conditioner and body wash. We have just replaced all of the appliances and installed a water softener and filtration system. We regularly replace the filter in the refrigerator so you have great tasting ice and water.
Please note that we are constantly making improvements and we try to upload new photos as soon as possible so that the photos on the website are as accurate as possible but there might be slight differences.

A fabulous property with great amenities and a perfect location. Highly recommended!
The property was spotless, beautifully designed, and located in a perfect spot—close to everything but still peaceful. The amenities were top-notch, from the fully equipped kitchen to the cozy beds. The host was responsive and made check-in super easy. Highly recommended—I’d definitely stay here again!
We thought the room was even bigger and better in person than in the pictures. We loved everything about our week stay. The condo was spacious, the beds were comfortable, the showers and linens were great, and the condo was well stocked with everything we needed. Stacy was a wonderful host. We can’t wait to return!
Stacy was very responsive to questions we had and she ensured we didn't have any problems. The condo is fully stocked with everything you need. We enjoyed our stay.
We enjoyed our stay in Stacy’s condo. She was very helpful through the process and was on top of all communication. My only knock is the property itself doesn’t have a boat ramp, but the slip was perfect. I’d stay again!
Our Rivercation was a blast! Stacey made it easy to relax and enjoy our family vacation. There were extra towels for the pool, and those little things you forget like detergent and trash bags. We accomdated family and friends for a small retirement party at the beginning of the week and a small birthday party at the end of the week. We rented 3 condos at Sportsman's Lodge and this unit was the largest of the 3. Definitely recommend and will be back to enjoy the river and boat slip that comes with. Thank you for the memories!
