Fun on the Water

Lake Heritage is part of the Lake Land'Or gated community, which features 16 lakes and ponds. As the second-largest lake in the community, it offers its residents privacy and plenty of lake fun.

This lake is on the Heritage "side" of the community, including a clubhouse, a pavilion, a pool, a beach area, and other smaller lakes and ponds.

Because it is so shallow in most areas, only electric motorboats are allowed in addition to kayaks and canoes. Residents can also toss out a line or relax on the shoreline. Many homes have gorgeous lake views, perfect for entertaining or observing nature.
