Best Parks in Clermont Florida

Clermont, Florida Parks

There are around 20 parks in the Clermont, Florida area but in this article we’ll give you information on two of these great parks; Palatlakaha River Park and Waterfront Park. These are great parks to visit especially if you live in one of the area’s lakefront properties.

Palatlakaha River Park

This park offers boater’s access to the Crooked River and the Clermont Chain of Lakes. Here, you’ll find two fishing piers, a playground, and a pavilion with a grill as the main features. The area is great for birding and especially so in the Spring and Fall. Palatlakaha Park has a 0.8 mile loop trail that goes through the 18 acres of habitat kept for the Florida Scrub-Jay, as well as a Live Oak-Bald Cypress Hammock. Other animals that can be found in the park include butterflies, and various wildlife. Additionally, the trail is equipped with many educational signs that point out different plants along the way.

Complete amenities at Palatlakaha River Park include: 4 ball fields, full concession, restrooms, soccer field, tennis courts, volleyball courts, basketball court, racquetball court, fitness trail, enormous wooden play yard, pavilion, picnic area and a fishing pier/nature walk. This park is home of the South Lake Little League.

Waterfront Park

Waterfront Park

Located along Lake Minneola( see Lake Minneola Real Estate), Waterfront Park is right between East Avenue and Eighth Street. Weekly festivals happen at this park, such as Pig on the Pond, a host of triathlons and new water competitions, like the Champions’ Dragon Boat Festival and Leader of the Lake Regatta.

Running through the park, is a trail that is part of a 30 mile system and will eventually be part of the coast to coast trail.

Waterfront Bikes and Boards offers rentals of paddleboards, kayaks and bicycles. The park also includes picnic areas, a swimming area, fishing piers and a playground.

Overlook at Lake Louisa

Overlook at Lake Louisa

The Overlook at Lake Louisa in Clermont Florida is located off of Lake Louisa Road just southwest of the Legends Golf & Country Club. This is a non-gated yet exclusive community of about 130 homes in a closed circuit neighborhood. These homes range in size from $250,000 to about $400,000 on lots between 8500 ft.² and 10,000 ft.². Most of the homes are between 1900 and 3000 ft.² with three, four, and five bedroom layouts with 2 to 4 bathrooms. Homeowners dues are roughly $30-$35 per month or roughly $375 paid annually, which covers common area maintenance, property management, landscaping and road maintenance. But be sure to check with current listings on exact prices and specifics.

The majority of homes in Overlook were built around the mid to thousands and range about $85 per square foot. Properties are for sale by owner, short sales or even bank owned homes, perfect for catching up a great deal or an investment property. Due to the age of the homes, most have granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and open floor plans. Many master suites features separate sitting/office areas with walk-in shower, walk-in closets, garden tub, separate vanities and wet bar. All homes feature a two or three car garage depending on the size of the home itself.

Homes on Crescent Lake, Clermont Florida

Homes and Real Estate on Crescent Lake, Clermont Florida

I love talking about lakefront homes because that’s what I specialize in throughout Minneola, Clermont and Winter Garden. Today I want to talk about homes on Crescent Lake. This lake sits it just south of Lake Minnehaha and is literally about 1/16 the size of Lake Louisa, Lake Mineola and Lake Minnehaha but it has a high concentration of homes right on the lake with the docks, boardwalks and waterfront properties.

There are several ways to get to the homes along Crescent Lake; you can access it by Lakeshore Drive which runs north and south from downtown Clermont, or from the Westside along Highway 561 to a variety of inlets into residential neighborhoods. Log House Road connects the two at the south end of the lake but the only connection at the north end of the lake is along Bronson Road and Harder Road, which border Lake Louisa on the south end since many of these lakes are actually connected by tributaries.

One of the best things about Crescent Lake is that there are still lots available for custom building. Lots range in price from about $100,000-$250,000 depending on the size and the amenities or utilities attached with the property. Most of the single-family homes were built from the 1970s up until today and range from about $255,000-$580,000 currently. Many of the lots are at least 1/3 to 3/4 acre. These homes are designed to increase at about 3 to 4% each year but there are only about 5 to 10 properties around the entire lake for sale at any one time, so they do go quickly because this is a very desirable location. Some homes feature lots that do stretch out into the lake with either a boathouse or a small dock, while others only encompass a small section not including the lake even though there are not other improvements from the house to the lake.

If you’re interested in learning more about Crescent Lake or residential homes on similar lakes, please contact me anytime. This is what I love and buying a lakefront home is slightly different so let me help you navigate the purchase and find exactly what your looking for.

New Park in Clermont Florida

New Park in Clermont, Fl – Lake Hiawatha ParkNew Park in Clermont, Fl - Lake Hiawatha Park

As spring approaches, make sure you take advantage of Clermont’s new park! You will find the new park at Lake Hiawatha! Previously blanketed with citrus groves and shade trees, Lake Hiawatha Park now boasts two dog parks, a playground and a covered pavilion!

Lake Hiawatha Park just recently opened to the public on November 15th, 2014. It is a 220 acre preserve with two dog parks, a playground with a working old-fashioned water tower, hiking and biking trails, and a pavilion for picnics.

The first phase of this fabulous park located at 450 N. 12th St is home to the city’s FIRST dog parks, a playground of natural wood, a tree stump obstacle course, hiking trails and picnic pavilion. It’s the perfect place to bring your babies and fur babies alike!

New Park in Clermont, Fl - Lake Hiawatha ParkCertainly, the attention grabber of the park is the child sized, working, water tank on the playground. It was designed to be reminiscent of Old Florida so that it would fit in with the history of the property. Also, on the playground, you’ll see a maze made from a cattle chute that was part of the property.

Of the two dog parks, one is meant for dogs 25 pounds or larger and the other for smaller doggies. In each park, you’ll find water fountains for both dogs and people.

Currently, the second phase of Lake Hiawatha Park is under way on the other side of 12th St. This phase is predicted to include a fishing pier and a floating dock. That’s right…this park will be accessible to those arriving by foot, bike, car and even boat!

It’s definitely a park the community of Clermont can be most proud of! So, as you’re looking for a place to play or relax the day away, come out and give Lake Hiawatha Park a try!
