Welcome to Feature Friday, where we shine a spotlight on Central Florida communities that combine everyday living with vacation-like charm—and today’s featured neighborhood is no exception.
Tucked quietly between the heart of Winter Garden and the scenic Black Lake shoreline lies a community that delivers beauty, peace, and connection in one perfect package:
✨ Black Lake Park
This gated community may not be as widely known as Horizon West or Hamlin, but it has become a word-of-mouth favorite for locals who value space, nature, and proximity to the magic.
📍 Where Is Black Lake Park?
Located just off Avalon Road, south of Colonial Drive (SR 50), Black Lake Park enjoys a peaceful pocket of Winter Garden that’s still minutes from modern convenience.
Here’s what’s nearby:
- 🚙 10 minutes to Winter Garden Village
- 🛝 5 minutes to Historic Downtown Winter Garden
- 🏰 25 minutes to Walt Disney World
- 🚲 Direct access to the West Orange Trail for biking and walking
- 🛍️ Easy commute to Clermont, Hamlin, and Horizon West
It’s close enough to feel connected—yet private enough to feel serene.
🏘️ What’s Inside the Neighborhood?
Black Lake Park was developed in the mid-2000s and features around 250 single-family homes with a variety of layouts, sizes, and views.
🏡 Community Features:
- 3–5 bedroom homes ranging from 2,000–4,000+ sq ft

- Direct lake access and homes with water views

🏞️ Lifestyle & Amenities
Black Lake Park is for those who want everyday peace with a strong community feel.
On any given afternoon, you’ll see:
- Parents walking kids to the playground and splash pad

- Neighbors chatting on wide front porches
- Weekend barbecues at the community pavilion
✨ Amenities include:
- Community pool
