Tucked just south of downtown Clermont, Lake Crescent is a spring‑fed, 1,000+ acre lake known for its deep, clear waters and winding shoreline. Unlike the busier lakes in the chain, Crescent feels more secluded, with stretches of cypress and oak giving it a natural, old‑Florida character. Waterfront homes here often feature private docks and sweeping views, with some estates enjoying direct access to the Clermont Chain of Lakes through a connecting canal. It’s a favorite spot for boating, fishing, and paddleboarding, but its limited public access keeps the atmosphere calm and residential. For buyers, Lake Crescent offers the rare combination of privacy, water quality, and proximity to Clermont’s shops and schools — making it one of the area’s most desirable hidden gems.
