You’ll find largemouth bass, brown trout, smallmouth bass, northern pike, bluegill, lake trout, and walleye. Not a fisherman? No problem, you can enjoy lake life any way you want to. Swim, boat, or just relax.

In the late 1800’s, the area started becoming popular as a winter vacation spot and citrus growing area, when the railroad came to town. The town of Interlachen was incorporated in 1888. Some of the town’s first residents (from Germany) gave it its name. Interlachen translates from German as “between the lakes” which is appropriate as it is located between 2 lakes and there over 20 more lakes close by.

Nearby Ocala National Forest offers plenty of outdoor adventure with camping, cabins, and boating. Explore amazing springs, twisting streams, and lakes for fishing or water skiing. At nearby Rice Creek Conservation area you’ll get to see a historic levee built for an 18th century rice plantation. Walk along the levee into the heart of the swamp and take in the seventh largest cypress tree in Florida.

Take a scenic riverboat tour on the St. Johns River or a day trip to DeLeon Springs to visit Volusia Speedway Park or make your own pancakes at the SugarMill restaurant (housed in a historic replica mill building). Head west for the coast at Cedar Key or east for the Atlantic oceanside at St. Augustine or Flagler Beach. Plus a visit to Orlando for your theme park fix is just a hop, skip, and a jump away.
