Neighbourhood
Our neighborhood is safe and friendly. You will find it's a great place to take walks or ride a bike. There is a men's bike and ladies' bike available for your use.
There is plenty of shopping, an excellent variety of restaurants, grocery stores, whatever you need, within a short drive. Within walking distance, you will find 3 restaurants, an ice cream shop, convenience store, gas station, barbers, chiropractor, healthfood store, and pharmacy. Across from that plaza is a golf course open to the public.
A public golf course is a 5-minute drive away.
Because we are centrally located, there are many opportunities for day trips.
Are you a fan of theme parks, roller coasters and the like? Disney, Universal, Sea World, Busch Gardens and Legoland are all within an hour's (or so) drive.
Is the beach more to your liking? Beautiful beaches are within one and a half to 2 hours of us. Like the Atlantic Ocean and waves? I recommend Cocoa Beach and a trip to Ron Jon's Surf Shop is a must.
Prefer warmer waters and small waves? An hour and a half away is the Gulf of Mexico with beautiful white sandy beaches.
A trip to our beautiful downtown is a must-see. Many small shops and plenty of places to eat. A walk around one of the lakes in town is a terrific way to spend some time. Lake Morton is home to our city's emblem, the Swan. Many swans, ducks and birds occupy the lake. Look for all the colorful swan statues around town. My personal favorite is the one in front of the office that does X-rays!
If you are a fan of architecture, Florida Southern College and the surrounding buildings were designed by Frank Lloyd Wright.
Interested in museums? There are many fine museums throughout the Central Florida area.
Want to see old Florida? Then an exciting airboat ride is the way to see it, at Midway Airboats. Or, visit one or more of the beautiful springs located in our area.
Circle B Bar Reserve is Lakeland's most popular natural property. Don't be surprised to see alligators and other wildlife while hiking or fishing.
I am happy to help you plan your stay in Florida!
Nearest airport
We have two international airports and both are about the same distance: Orlando International Airport and Tampa International Airport. I prefer Tampa because it is a smaller, more convenient airport, but it's usually more expensive to book airfare and has limited flights. So, we typically use Orlando International. At this time there really isn't an inexpensive way to travel between our home and both airports. You will need to rent a car or take a taxi or driver service. We may be able to assist with transportation.
Getting Around
You will need a car. Public transportation here is poor. It's possible we may be able to provide a car if we are doing a simultaneous exchange.
