This historic city on the southern edge of Lake Apopka used to be a Winter-Garden-piccitrus growing capital. Today, it’s one of the fastest-growing cities in the state, with a population that has more than doubled in the past two decades.
Just a 20-minute drive west from the heart of Orlando, Winter Garden feels worlds away from the buzz of the “Theme Park Capital of the World.” Its historic downtown, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, remains the heart of the community. Strolling down downtown’s brick-laden, tree-shaded streets lined with turn-of-the-century storefronts is like taking a step back in time.
Winter Garden has a wealth of amenities and attractions such as:
-
A number of historic landmarks, including the Garden Theatre and the Edgewater Hotel
The Heritage Museum and the Central Florida Railroad Museum
The downtown pavilion, clock tower, fountain, and splashpad
Numerous parks and recreational facilities, including the West Orange Trail, which runs through downtown
Access to beautiful Lake Apopka, Florida’s third largest lake with a surface area of over 30,000 acres
