Welcome to Governors Fish Camp: Your Exclusive Waterfront Retreat
Nestled in the serene beauty of Green Cove Springs, Florida, Governors Fish Camp is not just a rental; it's an experience. This private family home, situated on the picturesque Governors Creek, offers three bedrooms and two baths, creating the perfect haven for a fishing weekend or a relaxing getaway.
Waterfront Bliss:
For those seeking a fishing weekend or a peaceful escape, Governors Fish Camp is an ideal location. Enjoy the tranquility of Governors Creek or venture out to the St Johns River with ease, thanks to the boat dock and accommodating fixed bridges—perfect for small boats like pontoons. After a day on the water, unwind on the back screened patio or bask in the Florida sun on the open-air patio in the private backyard. If you prefer land-based activities, the surrounding area is excellent for walking and biking.
Long-Term Comfort:
While we welcome long-term guests, it's our commitment to your safety and comfort that sets Governors Fish Camp apart. Every 30 days, we access the property to check safety items, filters, and attend to any guest needs, ensuring that your stay is not just enjoyable but also secure.
Pet-Friendly Retreat:
Bring along your furry friend! With approval and the necessary fees paid, we welcome one well-behaved pet to join your getaway. The spacious driveway accommodates a single boating trailer and up to three cars, ensuring convenience for all your travel companions.
Homey Amenities:
Step into an open and spacious floor plan featuring a fully stocked kitchen and ample comfortable seating. Whether you're gathering for a family meal or simply lounging after a day of fishing, the interior is designed for relaxation. The screened patio overlooking the water adds an extra layer of tranquility, providing the perfect backdrop for your retreat.
Bedroom Retreats:
Retire to well-appointed bedrooms after a day of outdoor adventures. The master bedroom boasts a queen bed with an ensuite bath, ensuring privacy and comfort. The second bedroom features another queen bed, while the third bedroom offers a cozy double bed and a twin bed. The second and third bedrooms share a tub-shower combo bathroom.
Entertainment and Exploration:
Beyond the waterside bliss, Governors Fish Camp is conveniently located near various shopping and park options. Enjoy an evening at Clay Theatre, just a short mile away from City Hall, or unwind at Red’s Wine Bar on Walnut Street. Golf enthusiasts can schedule a day at Magnolia’s Golf and Country Club or head to the Top of the Tee at Fleming Island for a unique golfing experience without the crowds. If shopping is on your agenda, the Town Center at the corner of 17 and 220 awaits your exploration.
Safety in Nature:
As much as we celebrate our pet and child-friendly atmosphere, it's crucial to note that Governors Fish Camp is located on a Florida waterway, presenting inherent risks. The water may host wildlife, including alligators. For the safety of your loved ones, avoid approaching or engaging with wildlife. Full supervision is necessary for children and pets near the water.
