Idlewild Lodge, Florida
|
| | Idlewild Lodge is a beautiful lakefront, family get-a-way where fishing is prominent and there is lots of fun for the entire family. Children and adults enjoy camping, rv'ing, boating, pontooning, canoeing, kayaking, playing basketball, bike riding, bird watching, swimming or just lounging around the pool with a good book. We invite you to take advantage of our spectacular view of the sun rising over the lake each morning. It is a sight to behold, with no two alike. We have hosted many family reunions, weddings, church retreats, class reunions and fun |
family gettogethers. Our immaculate cottages provide a quiet, peaceful place to relax and unwind from the stresses of everyday life. Family owned and operated and pet friendly, our positive family atmosphere keeps our customers coming back.
We are the last residence on the
| north end of Lake Panasoffkee, providing a gateway to some of the most beautiful foliage and wildlife that includes alligators, otters, deer, wild boar, wild turkeys, hawks, owls, white pelicans and an occasional bald eagle. Directly across the lake from our property is the Lake Panasoffkee Preserve, a densley wooded, protected area where hikers, bird watchers and naturalists can spend an entire day just enjoying nature at it's best.
Lake Panasoffkee is a beautiful 4700 acre, spring fed lake that is known as America's ''bass capital''. While bass | |
|
fishermen come from all over the country to fish here, the lake is not limited to bass. You can catch your fill of shellcracker, bluegill, crappie/specs, catfish, brim, pan fish, stumpknockers, and bowfin. The sleepy little town of Lake Panasoffkee winds itself along the 7 mile,
west shoreline of the lake and hosts a grocery store, hardware store, post office, bait shops, gas stations and several local restaurants for your convenience. Life here is very laid back and the people are the friendliest you will ever meet.
Our climate can be quite dry
from October thru May. June and July is when we get the most rain. Through the lazy days of summer our temperatures mostly get into the 90's, with nighttime temps sliding into the 70's. High's in the winter ordinarily stay in the 60-70 degree range with nighttime lows in the 45-60
range.
Our convenient Central Florida location places you within an hour's drive to the Busch Gardens, Disney World and Sea World and several golf courses and beaches. Just 35 miles to our north is the beautiful Ocala horse country where you can take a glass bottom boat
ride in Silver Springs State Park or swim with the manatees in Rainbow Springs. We are just 15 miles from Inverness, the central access point of the Withalacoochee State Trail & Forest. Nearby Fort Cooper State Park, Homosassa Springs State Wildlife Preserve, Croom Wildlife Management
Area, Crystal River State Archealogical Site, Yulee Sugar Mill Ruins State Historic Site, Cedar Key State Preserve & Museum, Dade Battlefield and Fort Armstrong Historical Monument make it virtually impossible to run out of things to do. This amazing choice of attractions will
keep you from the possibility of getting bored.
If you feel like hanging out, doing a little fishing, sightseeing, or just kicking back to relax or watching the sun come up, Idlewild Lodge is the place for you. So bring your family, your pet, your boat and have a vacation
to remember. Whether a week or a day, you will be pleased with your choice. Check out our website at www.idlewildlodge.com
Don't forget to take a brilliant little journey to Little Jones Creek; while you're here you will meet lots of folks from nearby Lake Panasoffkee.
Lakes are great; Princess Lake is a lake that's close to Idlewild Lodge, and taking a little trip to nearby Shell Point is a glorious idea. This is beyond doubt a pleasant campground. Fort Cooper State Park is a pleasant place to stretch your legs a bit, and when you're here it's
always fun to explore Dade Battlefield Memorial State Park.

Lodge. All the water falling down from the sky makes Idlewild Lodge a wet location; most of the rain falls throughout July; the driest of the months is October.
