Delivery inside Welaka city limits is free. Outside Welaka we deliver by arrangement to Fruitland, Georgetown, Pomona Park, Crescent City, Palatka, East Palatka and St. Augustine. Call (386) 603-0295 first and we will confirm availability for your address, what it runs and when. Then book online.
We bring it to you
In Welaka, we drive it to you. We live here. Your cart comes down the road to wherever you are staying, charged, before your rental starts. Nobody hands you a key in a parking lot and nobody makes you come get it.
Outside Welaka, we trailer it out. Same result, longer trip on our end, which is why anywhere past town limits needs a phone call first so we can confirm we can get a cart to your address on your dates.
Welaka
Free delivery. This is home.
Every road in town limits is open to you. The Welaka Boat Ramp with two concrete lanes, Bryant's Wharf Kayak Launch with its floating dock. Welaka Fish, Crab and Bait for blue crabs and bait, Betcha Bass Bait Shack for live wild shiners. Shrimps 'R Us and More, Long's Log Cabin Bar and Package, Bomba's Home Cooking, Lexi's Deli and Cafe. The Welaka National Fish Hatchery and Aquarium, built in 1926, with the Beecher Run Nature Trail behind it.
Most of our renters are staying at Stillwater Welaka or Low Tide Welaka, Welaka Lodge and Resort, Andersen's Lodge, or Trailboss RV and Marina. We deliver to all of them.
Fruitland
By arrangement. South of Welaka on 309.
Small, quiet and close enough that plenty of Fruitland guests treat Welaka as their town for the weekend.
One thing people ask about: Fort Gates Ferry is closed. It has not been running, so do not build a day around crossing the river on it.
Georgetown
By arrangement. South of Welaka where the river opens toward Lake George.
Porky's Lodge, Bar & Grill sits on the water with an Old Florida feel and the sunsets to match. Port Cove RV Resort and Marina takes RVs and boats. If you are here to fish, this is a good base and a cart makes the ramp-to-cabin runs painless.
Pomona Park
By arrangement. West of Welaka, inland off the river. This is where the weddings are.
Ever After Farms Vineyard Barn, 372 Sisco Rd, (321) 209-1670. A rustic wedding and reception venue with a vineyard and a barn.
Fern Oak Estate, 322 Lake Como Dr. A wedding venue and luxury vacation rental, so you can hold the wedding and put people up in the same place.
If you are getting married at either one, or you are a guest staying nearby, a cart handles the weekend without anybody moving a car between the venue and wherever everyone is sleeping. Book early. Wedding weekends go, and a wedding party usually wants more than one cart.
Hideaway Bar and Grill has live music.
Crescent City
By arrangement. Southwest of Welaka, on Crescent Lake.
The biggest cluster of places to stay outside Welaka: Crescent Fish Camp with cottages, tiny homes and a full marina, Bass World Lodge and Marina at the northern tip of Lake George, Cherry Blossom RV Resort, Sprague House Bed and Breakfast Inn in an 1892 steamboat gothic building. The Lochside Restaurant, Bar & Marina and Renegades on the River both sit on the water. The Oaks Golf Club has eighteen holes and a restaurant.
Palatka
By arrangement. North of Welaka on 17, the biggest town in our delivery area.
Ravine Gardens State Park has two spring-fed steephead ravines up to 120 feet deep. The Palatka Golf Course is a public Donald Ross design from 1925. Velchoff's Corner does Southern comfort food and fresh seafood. If you are staying in Palatka and want a cart for a neighborhood, a park or an event, call us.
East Palatka
By arrangement. Across the river from Palatka.
Quieter side, same access. Call with the address and we will tell you what we can do.
St. Augustine
By arrangement, and worth a conversation. The furthest point in our delivery area, northeast of Welaka.
We do deliver to St. Augustine. Before you book, one honest note: St. Augustine is not Welaka. The historic district has its own traffic patterns, its own parking, and plenty of streets posted above 35 where an LSV is not allowed. A cart works beautifully for some St. Augustine stays and poorly for others, and which one you have depends entirely on where you are staying.
Call us, tell us the address, and we will tell you straight whether a cart makes sense for your trip. We would rather talk you out of one than have you sit on a rental you cannot use.
How "by arrangement" actually works
- Call us at (386) 603-0295 with your dates and the address.
- We confirm availability for your address and dates.
- We quote it. Delivery outside Welaka is priced on the call, not off a chart.
- You book online and pay in full.
- We deliver the cart charged, with a cable, and check licenses, ages and insurance at handoff.
Give us more lead time than you would for a Welaka rental. We are one small fleet covering a lot of river.
What the rules are wherever we drop it
Same everywhere:
- Every driver 21 or older, valid license, proof of their own auto insurance
- Two-day minimum, 28-day maximum, 10% off at seven days
- Roads posted 35 mph or less only. Check the limits where you are staying.
- Everybody in a seat, seat belts on
