The Hammocks

Located in Miami/Dade County

Large master-planned community near Miami

The Hammocks is a large master-planned community of almost 18,000 homes in Miami's West Kendall. The suburb is beautifully landscaped, with mature oaks, palms and poincianas shading sidewalk-lined streets. Many houses are set on spacious lakeside lots, and each subdivision is within walking distance of a park or a clubhouse. According to resident Marcus Barrios, the broker and owner of Barrios and Associates Realty, the big draw to the community is its wide variety of homes. "There are condos, townhouses and everything from starter homes to forever homes. Lots of pool homes, too," he says. Nearby shopping and proximity to downtown Miami, less than 25 miles away, add to its appeal.

Community parks and celebrations

The Hammocks features several parks, including Hammocks Community Park, which is the largest green space in the community. It has ballfields and athletic courts and is often used by youth sports leagues. Wild Lime Park is another recreational hotspot with soccer fields, tennis courts and a community pool. Four-legged friends can run free at Bark Park, which has separate runs for large and small dogs.

Biking trails wrap around each lake in The Hammocks and provide direct routes to the community's many lakeside artificial beaches. Barrios says these sandy spots are prime seating for picnics and the Fourth of July Firework Celebration, which is sponsored by the homeowners association.
