Florida Information

Clermont has a wonderful central location in Lake County, Florida, making it perfect for visiting all the Orlando attractions and beyond. It is just 15 minutes to Walt Disney World, and a short drive to Universal Studios, Sea World or International Drive. The Gulf coast is approximately one hour away, and an easy day trip takes you to Daytona Beach and the Kennedy Space Center. However, with a variety of seasonal events and outdoor recreation, you’ll find plenty to keep you busy right in the Clermont area. Locals know this lovely city as the “Gem of the Hills”, because it is one of the few Florida counties that has rolling hills. Clermont is also known for its many lakes and canals. Twenty golf courses are located within a 10-mile radius of Clermont, and the “Rails to Trails,” bike trail extends from Clermont to Ocoee. Craft shows are common events, and shopping is a popular past time with many deals and specialty gift items to be found at outlet malls and the shops along U.S. 192. Clermont is also home to the famous Lake Ridge Winery that offers free wine tasting and winery tours.
