Located just minutes from St. George Lake and close to a golf course, Lake Valencia offers its residents a wide variety of recreational activities. Homes in this picturesque neighborhood are within walking distance of two community lakes.
Lake Valencia is located in zip code 34684. The community is bound by Tampa Road on the north, Lake St. George Drive on the east, Kavalier Drive on the south, and Lake Valencia Boulevard West on the west.

Of the many appealing aspects of living in Lake Valencia are the community lakes that offer water views and fishing opportunities to residents. There are four small lakes in the vicinity. Those wishing for a larger lake experience like traveling directly to the east and visiting the 46,000-acre St. George Lake. The second largest freshwater lake in Florida, this body of water contains a wide variety of desirable fish, including striped bass, bluegills, large-mouth bass, and shellcrackers.
The Countryside Country Club is located to the south of Lake Valencia. This private club has an 18-hole course and a 9-hole course. There are also lighted tennis courts, outdoor pools, a fitness facility and spa, and a restaurant.
For an outing the whole family can enjoy, residents travel to the west and visit Palm Harbor. Every first Friday of the month, a community event is held in the historic downtown district. There are rides and games at the event, as well as food selections from area restaurants, and merchandise from local artists and crafters.
