Just minutes from downtown Dade City, yet surrounded by forestland, the community of Hickory Hill Acres offers its residents a blend of rural and city life. Residences in this peaceful neighborhood look out over acres of woodlands.
This Pasco County community is bounded by Moore Drive on the north, Green Oak Lane and Scott Drive on the east, Marco Lane on the south, and Leanne Drive on the west. Downtown Dade City sits directly to the north, and Interstate 75 travels to the west. The area is solely residential and lies in zip code 33525.
John S. Burks Memorial Park sits outside of the neighborhood a short distance to the northwest, offering visitors a wide variety of recreational opportunities that include baseball diamonds, soccer fields, basketball courts, tennis courts, and the Dade City Raceway, which features a premiere motocross facility. The Pasco County Fairgrounds are also on site.
Residents who fish take a short trip to the southwest and cast their lines in Lake Pasadena, where they hope to hook bluegill, bowfin, and smelt. Buddy Lake, a short distance to the south, has channel catfish, rock bass, and white bass.
The Pasco Regional Medical Center lies outside of Hickory Hill Acres to the north. This 120-bed acute care facility, which opened in 1973, offers a variety of specialized services, including emergency care, men’s health, women’s health, and wound care.
