“This older property has a distinctive, even slightly unsettling, charm for some, though it clearly caters to those seeking direct access to the St. John's River. The on-site boat ramp, slips, and fish-cleaning station are valuable assets, pointing to its appeal for fishing groups. A quick walk across the bridge lands you at a restaurant, making it convenient despite its somewhat isolated feel.”
