Nature and a slower pace draw homebuyers to Lakewood Park
Lakewood Park offers a tranquil living experience along Florida's Treasure Coast. It’s known for its many lakes, rural surroundings and diverse subdivisions that appeal to buyers at any stage of life, whether you’re looking for your first home or a place to retire. With peaceful preserves, the island-dotted Indian River and the Atlantic Ocean all within reach, residents here spend most of their time outdoors. While big shopping trips require a drive, there are a few retailers and local restaurants close to home, and U.S. Route 1 makes for easy commutes to places like Downtown Fort Pierce, just 10 miles away.
Lakewood Park features more than two dozen lakes.

Classic Florida home styles in a rural-like setting
With homes from the 1950s through today, the neighborhood features a wide range of housing options from manufactured homes and midcentury ranch-style homes to coastal-inspired bungalows. Some subdivisions are known for their distinct styles, such as the gated Portofino Shores community, which features Spanish eclectic designs. Others are sought after for their amenities, such as Holiday Pines, home to Island Pines Golf Club. If you’re looking for waterfront property, many homes here are on small lakes. “It’s got 26 lakes and multiple parks and a good amount of wildlife. So, it feels like an insulated, wooded, rural community, but it’s nestled between your metropolitan amenities,” says Jim Fisher, a Realtor with LPT Realty who is a top listing agent for the community and raised his family here.
Lakewood Park homes often sit along the golf course.

Storms happen, but major flooding has been rare
Flooding and hurricanes are realities of coastal living, but according to the First Street Foundation, Lakewood Park’s flood risk is minor. Only two major flooding events have occurred since 2004, most recently with Hurricane Matthew in 2016. “Whenever there are storms, the community bands together,” says Fisher, who partnered with Bearded Brothers Taphouse & Eatery to feed families for free after Hurricane Milton spawned a devastating tornado outbreak in 2024. “We fed over 150 families … a lot of people were suffering from power outages and didn’t have food,” he says.
The community has access to public transportation via Area Regional Transit (ART).
Some roads are lined with bike lanes.

What it’s like to be a part of the Lakewood Park community
If you decide to move to Lakewood Park, you’ll find a welcoming, hard-working community. “It’s diverse. You’ve got young families, retirees and first-time homebuyers. A lot of people are working-class, blue-collar people or tradespeople,” Fisher says. “It’s a non-pretentious neighborhood. It’s very laid back. If you want to be chummy with your neighbors, you can be. If you want to stay to yourself, you can. No one will bother you.” He adds that people often come together to celebrate the holidays. “They’ll do Christmas parades with golf carts. It feels like a slice of old Florida that you can retreat to when you’re done with all the exciting activities in Fort Pierce,” Fisher says.
Lakewood Park Indrio Savannah preserve offers multiple wildlife observation areas.
Many residents go to Indrio Savannahs Preserve to bird watch.
