Weekend stay in Welaka

The house was extremely clean. Stocked well with everything you need. Everyone in the park was friendly. My family and I felt so safe! We did 4 springs on our 3 day stay and ate the most delicious food. Highly recommend Lexi’s for breakfast and shrimpsrus for dinner! Kim was great and full of good tips for the surrounding area!
