Lake Okeechobee gateway, sugarcane landscape and outdoor lifestyle
The rural Hendry County community of Clewiston is known as both the “Gateway to Lake Okeechobee” and “America’s Sweetest Town.” The first comes from its location on the southern edge of the state’s largest freshwater lake and the second is because of the area’s climate and abundance of sugarcane fields. “You won’t see lakefront properties here thanks to the 30-foot Herbert Hoover Dike,” says Greg Bone, Owner and Broker with Southern Heritage Real Estate & Investments, Inc. “Fishing for bass and duck hunting are the main tourist activities. Otherwise, it’s mostly sugar cane fields, not particularly scenic.”
Clewiston is an agricultural community surrounded by farm land.
Clewiston's sugar refineries are a staple in the community.
