Pine Lakes is a quiet, outdoorsy retreat where tall pines, freshwater ponds, and wide-open skies shape everyday life. Tucked along State Road 44, it offers the ease of country living with quick access to neighboring conveniences in Eustis, the lakefront festivals and dining in Mount Dora, and small-town essentials in Umatilla. Many homes sit on generous lots, giving space for gardens, boats, and weekend projects, while the pace stays unhurried and neighborly.
Adventure begins just up the road in the Ocala National Forest, where hiking, fishing, and birding unfold beneath longleaf canopies. On hot days, locals cool off at the crystalline Alexander Springs Recreation Area, one of Florida’s most accessible natural springs for swimming and paddling. To the south, Seminole State Forest offers miles of quiet trails, equestrian routes, and access to blackwater creeks—ideal for those who prefer their weekends with a side of wilderness.
Families appreciate the community feel and the options within Lake County. Students are served by Lake County Schools, with a range of academic and career pathways and convenient bus routes to area campuses. Whether you’re drawn by the forests and springs or the value and elbow room, Pine Lakes delivers an easygoing lifestyle with nature out the front door. Ready to make a move or sell with confidence?
