Lake Link (Florida)

Lake Link is a circular natural freshwater lake on the east side of Winter Haven, Florida. It has a 26.17-acre (105,900 m2) surface area and is surrounded on all but the southwest sides by residences. A 50 feet (15 m) canal connects it there to Lake Otis, a much larger lake. On the southwest Lakewood Causeway separates Lake Otis and Lake Link. Other than a short bridge, Lakewood Causeway is a land route. There is no public access to Lake Link, so no boating or fishing can be done without permission of adjacent landowners. However, the Hook and Bullet website says this lake contains largemouth bass, bluegill and crappie. References
Lake Lulu

Lake Lulu is a natural freshwater lake in Winter Haven, Florida. The lake has a 315-acre (1,270,000 m2) surface area and has a somewhat irregular oval shape. It is bounded on the north and northeast by private residences. It has no eastern or western sides, as the lake's shore comes to a point on those two sides. At the eastern point, it is bounded by West Lake Eloise Drive and about 75 feet (23 m) beyond that is Lake Eloise. The entire south side of the lake is lined with a swampy area and a dense growth of trees. On the northwest, Lake Lulu is bordered by the Chain of Lakes Complex. Part of this is the Chain of Lakes Park, which is on the south portion of the Chain of Lakes Complex. The entire south end of the complex consists of baseball fields. The Chain of Lakes Park is one particular baseball stadium that was built in 1966 to serve as the Boston Red Sox spring training facility. It was renovated in 1993 and the Cleveland Indians used the stadium for spring training until 2009. This stadium, located 225 feet (69 m) from the lake's shore, is no longer used for spring training. Lake Lulu can be accessed by the public on the eastern point bordering on West Lake Eloise Drive and on the shore along the Chain of Lakes Complex. In theory, it can be accessed along the entire south side. This is very swampy and finding solid ground to walk to the lake is inadvisable. There are no public boat ramps or swimming areas on the lake's shore. However, Lake Lulu is part of the Winter Haven Chain of Lakes, and is accessible by boat from a number of area lakes via canal. Lake Lulu is directly connected by canal to Lake Shipp to the west and Lake Eloise and Lake Roy to the east. The Hook and Bullet website says Lake Lulu contains largemouth bass, bluegill and crappie.

Lake Manatee

Lake Manatee is an artificial reservoir located in Manatee County, Florida. State Road 64 crosses the eastern end of the lake, while the Lake Manatee State Park is found at the southwestern end. The Manatee River flows into the lake at the eastern end, then continues to the west, where it flows into Tampa Bay. Lake Manatee is a major source of water for Bradenton and other cities in Manatee County, providing 32 million US gallons (120,000,000 L; 27,000,000 imp gal) per day. Lake Manatee State Park is located on the south shore of the lake. History Discussion of building a reservoir in Manatee County started in the 1950s. In 1951, the Manatee County Commission passed a resolution indicating interest in building a dam at an existing deep ravine east of the Rye Road bridge. Construction of the Lake Manatee reservoir broke ground on October 23, 1965. The reservoir's dimensions consisted of about 50 feet (15 m) high and 4,510 feet (1,370 m) across, with a 100-foot (30 m) concrete spillway. The dam was completed on January 9, 1967. References
Lake Mariam

Lake Mariam is roughly oval in shape and is on the northeast side of Winter Haven, Florida. The Polk County Water Atlas says sometimes the lake is known as Lake Marion, but a different Lake Marion is also in Polk County, Florida, where Lake Mariam is located. It has a surface area of 200 acres (809,371 m2) and is bordered on the west side, most of the south side and part of the north side by residential areas. Brandywine Health Care Center, a nursing home, is a block north of the lake. On the northwest and southwest Lake Mariam is bordered by woods and on most of the east side of the lake are woods and pastureland. On the lake's southeast side is a swampy area. There are no public swimming areas on Lake Mariam, but a public boat ramp is on the lake's north side, to the back side of Brandywine Health Care Center. Boating and fishing are allowed. The public may fish near the boat ramp or by boat. The Hook and Bullet website says the lake contains largemouth bass, bluegill and crappie. References
Lake Moody

Lake Moody is a natural freshwater lake with a 409-acre (1,660,000 m2) surface area. Shaped somewhat like a flint arrowhead, Lake Moody is in an area of sparse residential development. A scattering of residences, as well as citrus groves, are on the south side of the lake along South Lake Moody Road. On the west side the lake is bordered by the Scenic Route of Highway 17. A few residences line the west side of the highway and the shore on west side is all private property. Most of the area along the highway is bordered by citrus groves. North Lake Moody Road borders the northwest part of the lake. The shore borders much of the road right-of-way on this road. Lake Moody is bordered on the northeast by citrus groves and some swampy areas of ground. A railroad line, more swamp and citrus groves line the east shore. This lake is in a very hilly rural area consisting of cattle grazing land and citrus groves. The town of Frostproof, Florida, is about 0.5 miles (0.80 km) to the south and Lake Leonore is about 1,500 feet (460 m) to the northeast. This lake has no public swimming area or boat ramp. Fishing may be done along North Lake Moody Road. The Hook and Bullet website says Lake Moody contains black drum, bigmouth buffalo and Atlantic salmon. References
Lake Munson

Lake Munson is a shallow reservoir on the southeast side of Tallahassee in Leon County, Florida. Historically known as Munson's Mill Pond as early as the 1840s, in 1950 a permanent dam was constructed. From 1934 to 1984, Lake Munson received outflow from the Tallahassee waste water system, leading in 1982 to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection classifying the lake as hypereutrophic and as the seventh most degraded lake in Florida. Cypress and willow trees line the lake, and egrets, wood storks, and limpkin are often found foraging along the shoreline, often on invasive apple snails. Bass fishing in the lake can be excellent, and a boat ramp is provided at the Gil A. Waters Lake Munson Preserve Park, with another located at the dam.

Lake Nona High School

Lake Nona High School is a public high school in the Orange County Public Schools district of Orlando, Florida, United States. It was a relief school for Odyssey Middle School, Cypress Creek High School, and Oak Ridge High. Lake Nona High School stands as one of the more challenging schools in Orange County due to its rigorous academic workload, significantly high AP enrollment, and open dual enrollment program through Valencia College. In addition to the school's collegiate focus, students have the ability to attend a fast-track nursing program, Health Science Academy starting in their freshman year. The school rating has repeatedly been a high 'A' since 2012. Lake Nona has a graduation rate of 97.7%. History Construction began in August 2007 and was completed in June 2009. Its first principal, Dr. A. Robert "Rob" Anderson, was originally principal at Edgewater High. For its opening year, Nona served grades 6–11. Middle school students moved to their own campus, Lake Nona Middle School, in the 2011–12 school year, leaving Lake Nona High School to serve only grades 9–12. In the spring of 2012, Lake Nona High School allowed Valencia College students to go there while the new Valencia College was being built. The students from Valencia College were there until the new building was fully constructed in August 2012. Overview The school's mascot is a lion and the school colours are navy blue, silver, and white. The 377,000-square-foot (35,000 m2) campus includes ten buildings consisting of one and two-story concrete, tilt-wall construction housing administration, classrooms, art and music rooms, kitchen, multi-purpose and dining facility, auditorium, gymnasium, playing fields and outdoor activity areas. Demographics The 2018–2019 school year had 25.8% white students, 56.2% Hispanic students, 9.0% black students, 5.5% Asian students, and 3.5% mixed/other race students. They also had 43.9% male enrollment and 56.1% female enrollment.

Lake Olivia

Lake Olivia is an 89-acre (360,000 m2) freshwater lake located within the Avon Park Lakes subdivision in northwest Highlands County, Florida. It is to the northwest of the incorporated city of Avon Park. Maximum depth is about 45 feet (14 m), with a fairly steep contour to the depth. The lake's shape is round. There were many years of drought, depleting the lake's water volume. The last two years saw more rain and a swampy area now surrounds almost all of Lake Olivia. Fishing, walking and boating are popular activities. Fishing is apparently more productive at Lake Olivia than some other lakes. Almost daily people fish the south shore and many days people fish from boats in the lake. A reviewer wrote in the Fishing Works website he always catches numerous small fish at the lake. Until recently, there was swimming at three locations. Officially swimming has not been allowed for years, although this provision has not been enforced until July 2010. Now swimming is completely forbidden. The decision by Highlands County to forbid swimming was detailed in the April 2011 Avon Park Lakes Association Newsletter: "It seems the county put the signs up for two reasons; 1) the lake is not routinely tested by the county for the things other lakes are tested for and; 2) there are no bathroom facilities in the area for use by swimmers." For a time, some of the amenities of Lake Olivia were a bit dilapidated. An old fishing dock was removed in 2008. Between 2009 and 2012, numerous improvements were made. Amenities include three public boat ramps. One of the ramps is currently unusable, as the water level has been low since 2007. The main boat ramp, on the south side of Lake Olivia, was partially replaced in March 2012. At the same time a new and larger fishing dock was built to replace the dilapidated one removed in 2008. A paved sidewalk surrounds the lake and covers approximately 1½ miles. Many of the paving slabs were replaced between 2009 and 2011. Nautilus Drive completely surrounds the sidewalk. The entire shore is public parkland. Residential houses completely line Nautilus Drive opposite the sidewalk. References External links Florida Lakewatch Fishing Works
Lake Otis (Florida)

Lake Otis is a natural freshwater lake located on the east side of Winter Haven, Florida. The Polk County Water Atlas says the lake sometimes is known as Little Otis, but this is confirmed nowhere else. The main part of the lake is somewhat rectangular in shape and on the south side of the main section of the lake is a long tail-shaped cove. Lake Otis has a 144 acres (58 ha) surface. It is connected on its northeast side to nearby Lake Link by a 50 feet (15 m) canal. This is the closest point between the two lakes. Other than where the shore where the two lakes are very close, Lake Otis is completely surrounded by residences. Lakewood Causeway runs between the two lakes. To the south of this area is a gated community that can be accessed by the public during the daytime. Most of the south cove is surrounded by another gated community and the public is prevented from entering it by gates that are closed all the time. Lake Otis has no public boat ramps or swimming areas. In fact, there are no areas of the shore accessible to the public. The entire shore of the lake, other than the area near Lake Link, has steep banks. The Hook and Bullet website, however, says Lake Otis contains largemouth bass, bluegill and crappie. References
Lake Overstreet

Lake Overstreet is a lake in Leon County, Florida, United States. It is 144 acres (0.58 km2) in size and falls within the property of Alfred B. Maclay Gardens State Park and is just northwest of Lake Hall by 500 feet (150 m). Access to the lake is only by hiking and mountain bike trails. The lake and land surrounding it were part of the Lafayette Land Grant. During antebellum years, this lake was within Andalusia Plantation owned by Frenchman Emile Dubois. Later, it was the western border of Live Oak Plantation. Fish found in Lake Overstreet include largemouth bass, bluegills and bream.

Lake Proctor Wilderness Area

The Lake Proctor Wilderness Area is a 475-acre (1.92 km2) wooded site located in east Seminole County, Florida, United States, near the town of Geneva and to the west of Lake Harney. It can be found by taking State Road 46 east from Sanford, Florida and following it to the entrance on the left (north) side of SR 46 approximately 1-mile (1.6 km) east of the intersection with CR 426. The area includes a loop-type trail that is approximately 6 miles (9.7 km) in length. Habitats such as sand pine scrub, pine flatwoods, sandhill and bayhead swamp are highlighted in the area. Wildlife observed on this site includes the wood duck, white-tailed deer, red fox and Florida worm lizard. Benches are provided at several locations. This site's variety of habitats and beautiful trail system make it a popular destination for local equestrians, mountain bikers, hikers, boy scout troops and other outdoor enthusiasts. History This site was purchased through the Seminole County Natural Lands Program which was put in place in 1990 by the Citizens and Board of County Commissioners through recognition of the role conservation and natural resources play in promoting and protecting a quality community. Education Seminole County's Leisure Services uses the area as an outside classroom through the Green Seminole Project. They cover topics that include prescribed fire, wildlife management and water quality.

Lake Roy (Florida)

Lake Roy is a natural freshwater lake inside the city of Winter Haven, Florida. It has a 74.17-acre (300,200 m2) surface area and is located on the south side of Cypress Gardens Boulevard. The lake once had a larger surface area, but when Cypress Gardens Boulevard was upgraded it ran over some of the northern part of Lake Roy; this part had been filled so the road could be rerouted. A small part of the old lakebed is north of the street, but is more of a retention pond now, for the most part remaining dry. The lake is of an irregular shape. Lake Roy is connected by a canal on its southwest side to Lake Lulu and indirectly from there to more than twenty other area lakes. These lakes are linked by canals and are known locally as the Chain of Lakes. Most of the shore of Lake Roy is bordered by residential housing. Residential areas circle from the southeast around to the northwest side of the lake. Along Cypress Gardens Boulevard on the northwest are businesses and a hotel, Lake Roy Beach Inn, is on this street at the northeast corner of the lake. There is a county park with a swimming area and boat ramp on the lake's southeastern shore. The boating public may reach Lake Roy from other lakes by traveling to it via the canal system. Fishing is allowed and the lake may be fished from Lake Roy Park or from the north shore where Cypress Gardens Boulevard borders the lake. The Hook and Bullet website says Lake Roy contains bowfin, bluegill and sturgeon. References
Lake Ruby

Lake Ruby is a natural freshwater lake in the suburbs southeast of Winter Haven, Florida. Lake Ruby has a 259-acre (1,050,000 m2) surface area. It is one block south of Cypress Gardens Boulevard. Lake Ruby Drive borders most of the lake's north side. All of the west shore, the southwest shore and the northeast shore is bordered by gated residential communities. The south side of the lake is bordered by private land and just to the east-southeast is Lake Bess. A narrow strip of land, at its narrowest point 40 feet (12 m), separates the two lakes. Although Lake Ruby is large, the public has access to it only along a section about three blocks wide on the north shore, along part of Lake Ruby Drive. There are no public swimming areas or public boat ramps. The lake shore can be accessed on the north by those wishing to fish. The Hook and Bullet website says the lake contains bullhead, gar and bowfin. References
Lake Sebring

Lake Sebring is a natural freshwater lake in Highlands County, Florida, and located north of Sebring, Florida, and Lake Jackson. The lake is somewhat oval shaped and has a 494-acre (2,000,000 m2) surface area. The lake is named for Sebring's developer, George Sebring. It is a shallow muck lake with max depth of 17 feet (5.2 m). A public boat ramp, on the lake's southwest, is just off Memorial Drive. Canals connect the lake to Little Red Water Lake, to the northeast, and to Lake Jackson, to the south. Canals indirectly connect a number of area lakes to Lake Sebring. Fishing is allowed. The lake has largemouth bass, Florida gar, bowfin, Florida crappie and two types of catfish. No public swimming beaches are on Lake Sebring's shore. References
Lake Seminole (Pinellas County, Florida)

Lake Seminole (, SEM-i-nohl) is a freshwater lake in urban Pinellas County in the U.S. state of Florida. The lake is located in the city of Seminole, about 20 miles (32 km) west of Tampa. Lake Seminole is the second largest lake in Pinellas County (after Lake Tarpon), with a surface area of 700 acres (2.8 km2). Once a tidal estuary, Lake Seminole was created in the 1940s by closing the upper portion of Long Bayou. Lake Seminole's watershed is unusually small for a lake of its size, draining only approximately 5.5 miles of the county, in mostly developed Seminole and Largo. Historically the watershed was much larger than its current limits, but was altered in the early 1970s to divert runoff into Long Bayou for flood relief. Due to the low volume of water, and the nutrient and pollutant rich drainage from the urbanized area surrounding the lake, water quality has been a concern, with the county developing the Lake Seminole Watershed Management Plan to protect water quality and habitat. The weir between the lake and bayou was under emergency repair prior to the hurricanes. The situation has made the lake extremely low and the wildlife vulnerable. On the east shore of Lake Seminole is Lake Seminole Park, a 250 acres (100 ha) county park that provides year-round public access to the lake. Popular activities on the lake include boating, jet skiing, water-skiing, and fishing. The park is also popular with families and nature enthusiasts, and includes a 2 miles (3.2 km) multi-use trail that winds through pine flat woods, a softball field, and volleyball courts.

Lake Streety

Lake Streety is a natural freshwater lake in south Polk County, Florida. It is 0.4 mi (1 km) southwest of Little Sun Ray and 1.4 mi (2.3 km) southwest of Sun Ray. Both of these are small unincorporated communities. Lake Streety is just north of the Avon Park Cut Off Road and is bordered on the northeast by Lake Streety Road, which is a sand road. The lake has a 324-acre (1,310,000 m2) surface area. There are no public swimming areas or boat ramps on the lake's shore. However, since it borders Lake Streety Road, public fishing there is possible. The HookandBullet.Com website says the lake contains bullhead, crappie and warmouth. References
Lake Summit

Lake Summit is a natural freshwater lake in Winter Haven, Florida. It has a 65.97-acre (267,000 m2) surface area and is somewhat oval in shape. It has two small coves on its north side. This lake is surrounded by residences around most of its perimeter. It has a public park, Lake Summit Park, on part of its west side, and Legoland Florida's water park is on its southeast shore. A boat canal on the south side of Lake Summit leads to Lake Eloise. Lake Summit has no public swimming areas but does have a public boat ramp. Also, the lake may be reached by boat via canal from Lake Eloise. Lake Summit is indirectly linked to many other lakes on the Winter Haven Chain of Lakes. The lake may be fished from shore at the park or by boat. The Hook and Bullet website says Lake Summit contains largemouth bass, bluegill and crappie. References
Lake Tulane

Lake Tulane in Florida is one of numerous natural lakes that occupy sinkholes, which were formed by the dissolution of Eocene limestone at depth. Lake Wales Ridge, within which Tulane Lake lies, is a linear highland that consists of unconsolidated quartz sands of the Pliocene Cypresshead Formation. These sands rest upon impermeable Miocene sediments that overlie limestone, which was dissolved by groundwater and collapsed to form Tulane Lake. It is oblong in shape, has a surface area of 88 ares (95,000 sq ft) and has a maximum depth of 70 feet (21 m). It is surrounded by residential housing in Avon Park, Florida. The organic-rich sediments, which underlie the bottom of Lake Tulane, provide one of the few records of ancient climates within eastern North America that extends beyond the late glacial period (~ 15,000 cal years BP). Cores from the bottom of Lake Tulane have yielded a record of paleoclimates and paleovegetation, which date back to before 60,000 BP. The Pre-Holocene pollen record shows alternating periods of Pinus (pine)-dominated and Quercus-Ambrosia (oak-ragweed)-dominated vegetation. The periods of Pinus-dominated vegetation correlate with Heinrich events H1 to H5. This correlation demonstrates a linkage between continental and oceanic climate events. The periods of Pinus-dominated vegetation are interpreted to represent periods of relatively high precipitation associated with relatively warm waters in the Gulf of Mexico. The periods of Quercus-Ambrosia-dominated vegetation are interpreted to represent period of arid climate associated with periods when the Gulf of Mexico and the North Atlantic Ocean were cooled by glacial meltwaters. Lake Tulane is used for swimming, boating and fishing. There is a public boat ramp on its west side and a public swimming beach on its south side. A person leaving a comment in the Fishing Works website rated the fishing at the lake as excellent. References
Lake Verona

Lake Verona is located at the east end of Main Street (SR-64 E) within the city limits of Avon Park, Florida. While the lake covers only 41 acres (17 ha), it is considered the deepest natural lake in peninsular Florida (at ~80 feet), with very steep banks, and a rapid drop-off. A boat ramp and turn-around exists where Church Street terminates at the lake shore adjacent to historic Donaldson Park. Picnic tables, shelter-houses, bathrooms, and barbecue grills are available. A broad white sand beach and public swimming area are present, although the lake is highly dangerous due to its depth and steep drop off. Life guards were once on duty, but such public safety measures are no longer present. Lake Verona is an entirely natural, land-locked, "collapse sink hole" lake, with white-sand beaches and clear water. It is the prominent feature of the City of Avon Park. The lake is one of the oldest lakes in the United States, estimated at 33,000+ years old. This has been established through radio-carbon dating of core samples from the bottom of the lake. Lake Tulane, its "sister" lake, located a short distance south, is dated at 60,000+ years old and, depending on the water levels at any given time, sometimes alternates title as the deepest lake in peninsular Florida.
