South Lake Chamber Letter
Welcome to South Lake County
On behalf of the 800-plus members of the South Lake Chamber of Commerce, it is our pleasure to welcome you to our communities with the sincere hope that you will quickly become a part of one of Florida’s most dynamic areas — South Lake County. We are proud of the entrepreneurial spirit that has taken hold in the South Lake region. This vibrancy offers each of us an enviable quality of life and enhanced standard of living.
Located 20 miles west-northwest of Orlando and a short drive away from Walt Disney World, Universal Studios, Sea World, and other major attractions, South Lake County — with its green rolling hills and numerous lakes — offers an oasis that is only minutes away from the Orlando metro area and the amenities that a big city offers.
Our school system — from elementary through secondary and higher education — is modern and offers students comprehensive, high quality educational opportunities and resources. South Lake County is home to Lake-Sumter Community College and the University of Central Florida–Clermont campus.
Healthcare is at its finest in our community and conveniently accessible. Our state-of-the-art hospital, South Lake Hospital, is the first community-centered healthcare complex in the area. Additional medical specialty services are also offered only a short distance away at Orlando Regional Healthcare, Health Central, and Florida Hospital in Celebration.
In South Lake County you will find an abundance of clear, cool lakes and our surprisingly hilly terrain. It’s no wonder some of the best water sports are enjoyed here. In addition, the area is considered the Triathlon Capital, with the National Training Center located in Clermont. Additionally, world-class skiers and wakeboard competitors often practice in our waters.
For those who prefer land activities, you will find parks and recreational facilities unmatched throughout the state. Lake Louisa State Park, home to a number of triathlon events and the largest lake in South Lake County, is undergoing constant development that is making this park one of the premier parks in the state.
Throughout this directory, you will come upon the varied businesses that make South Lake County special. Our businesses and merchants can deliver to you every type of good or service you may need. Among these enterprises and service providers you will find these common threads — commitment to excellence, pride in community, and dedication to service.
Discover South Lake County for yourself and see why it is one of the “gems” of Central Florida.
Leslie Longacre, South Lake Hospital CEO
Chair, Board of Directors
