Sightseeing/ Recreational
One of my favorite places in town about 15 minutes away. Just over 4 miles around the lake for a great walk. In the warmer months you can rent kayaks, canoes and peddle boats. Tons of wildlife and don't let the alligator photo scare you, but if your lucky enough to see one don't be it's dinner. Just kidding.
