Winter Garden
Winter Garden, just west of Orlando and its theme parks, is known for its old Florida style and charm, and a great place to visit in Central Florida.
The historic downtown, listed on the National Registry of Historic Places, is a favorite destination, with shops and restaurants situated along the award-winning West Orange Trail, part of the 250-mile Coast to Coast (C2C) Connector Trail across Central Florida. If you’re a cycling enthusiast, Winter Garden, a designated trial town, is the place for you.
Winter Garden is the cultural capital of West Orange County, with live performances at the Garden Theatre, live music throughout the downtown on the weekends and visual art at the SoBo Art Gallery. Saturdays are bustling with the award-winning Winter Garden Farmers Market, offering a large selection of vendors from locally grown produce and baked goods, to homemade soaps and fresh flowers, and live entertainment each week.
Winter Garden, nestled alongside beautiful Lake Apopka, is a former citrus town incorporated in 1908 and is home to more than 40,000 residents. It embodies a wealth of historical and natural assets. Visit the charming little city where good things grow!
