Lake County Florida – A Water Skiing Paradise

A sports lover's paradise, Lake County hosts myriad annual outdoor sporting events, including professional golf tournaments, water ski championships, sky diving competitions, bicycle races, equestrian competitions, triathlons and bass fishing tournaments.

The county hosts the World Disabled Water Ski Championship.  Three world famous water ski schools call Lake County home.  The Benzel Water Ski School is located in Groveland, the Sunset Lakes Water Ski School in Okahumpka, and the Swiss Water Ski School in Clermont.

The new waterfront real estate property available at Tavares Station on Lake Dora, boasts access to all of the 1,000 lakes and waterways in Lake County.  Water Skiing activities are just outside your front door.
Florida lakes are publicly owned and regulated by State Water Authorities and in most cases, access is available to all Florida lakes unless private parties own all the land surrounding the lake and there is no inlet to the lake from any outside public waterway.  For this reason, water skiing, fishing and boating are popular pastimes in Lake County Florida.

Water skiing can be regulated by motor boat  restrictions enacted by local and state water authorities.  It is best to keep water skiing activities to the larger public waterways to avoid causing wake damage or risk being involved with an irate fisherman or shoreline property owner.  Cruising and fishing are also popular water activities in Florida.  For example, the Harris Chain has numerous waterfront restaurants and miles of cruising waters. The Chain is also known for outstanding bass and crappie fishing.  Public ramps are numerous allowing the lakes to be enjoyed by everyone.

When looking for that new home in Lake County Florida that will provide access to the many lakes and hours of water skiing enjoyment, there are several determinations that you need to make before purchasing that new waterfront realestate property.  The ability to have a boat dock on your property or access to a community dock is one of these considerations.  Just imagine being able to come home from a hard day's work and hopping into your boat and enjoy and hour or two of water skiing before the sun goes down.
