Bring the boat and the whole family to enjoy world class fishing within 1-hour of Orlando and Disney World. This serene home located in the heart of Lake-Walk-in-Water State Forest boasts an awesome fishing and boat dock directly on Lake Walk-in-Water. The 7,528-acres lake is known for trophy largemouth bass, bream (bluegill) and crappie (speckled perch). There is a county boat ramp minutes from the house. Tournament fishermen will love this location with space for up to three boat trailers.
This is a charming lake house with tile throughout the home. It sits directly on Lake Walk in Water. The covered dock is huge and has space to tie up three boats with a boat lift set up for a bass boat. The dock is in a very sheltered cove with protection from the usual northeast winds. The yard is fully fenced.
The home is made of cedar, stone and stucco. It is very private and sheltered in a small enclave of only 12 homes in the middle of the state forest.
You will have access to the whole property except outbuildings, sheds and an outside closet.
Tampa is 1.5 hours away (Busch Gardens), Vero beach is just over an hour away. Legoland is 30 minutes or so. Bok Tower Gardens is lovely and only 20 minutes away. Watch ospreys and eagles fishing and otters playing with their pups.
We have a bojo bug light if you really want to catch fish. Turn the light on overnight. It attracts fish to the dock because it attracts bugs on the dock and on the water. Then you can fish all night. Be prepared for a big pile of bugs. When the May flies are out, the fishing is amazing. If you don’t appreciate the bugs, leave the light out overnight. This home has amazing lake views so you will see alligators, eagles and ospreys fishing.
