Retire between lakes and golf courses in Lake Lucerne
Living around the neighborhood’s namesake, residents of Lake Lucerne are never far from the water, with multiple lakes surrounding the housing developments. In Lake Lucerne, residents can enjoy the water on boats, or residents living in the retirement communities can golf at private courses. Downtown Winter Haven is just a few miles away, so Lake Lucerne residents are close to annual events and excellent restaurants.
Test your skill on the island 4th hole at Four Lakes Golf Club.
Lake Lucerne is also home to several retirement communities, like Lake ‘N Golf Estates.

Mediterranean-style homes and retirement communities
Lake Lucerne has multiple subdivisions. In the Lake Lucerne subdivision by the central lake, people can find New Traditional stucco houses on open streets with minimal landscaping or trees. In Royal Hills, pastel Mediterranean-style homes with rounded arches and features sit on landscaped lots with plenty of lush green and flowering plants. Style and personalization set homes apart, so each one is unique.
Retirees can settle into one of Lake Lucerne’s retirement communities. In developments like Hidden Golf Club and Swiss Golf and Tennis Club, residents can enjoy a gated community with a private golf course. Residents here may be retired, but the communities’ active social calendar and clubs keep people busy and connected.
Homes in the subdivisions tend to list between $325,000 and $350,000, though homes in the retirement communities will peak around $175,000 and list for much lower. “It’s so much cheaper than living on the coast,” says sales agent Christina Maurais with CRF Resales. “Life is just good here in Lake Lucerne. Once you see it, you don’t want to leave.”
Lake Lucerne subdivision offers homes from 1,500-3,000SF floor plans.
Home values are very reasonable in Lake Lucerne with property values in the low to upper 100K's.

Stroll along the trails at Mackay Gardens and Lakeside Preserve
“The draw with Winter Haven is that it’s part of the chain of lakes,” Maurais says. “It’s a beautiful environment with plenty of opportunities for outdoor activity.” While the golf communities can practice their swing at any time, other Lake Lucerne residents can head to Willowbrook Golf Course. Along with specials for 9-hole games, the course has plenty of mature trees and Florida wildlife for an interesting game. Mackay Gardens and Lakeside Preserve is 112 acres alongside Lake Rochelle, boasting nature and fitness trails. Boaters can also use the dock found here.
