Known as “The Chain of Lakes City”, Winter Haven boasts internationally renowned water sports, typical Florida weather, and unmatched hospitality. Guests of Winter Haven vacation homes and rentals can experience all that Winter Haven has to offer firsthand during their stay at this destination.
Water skiing is by far the most popular activity for tourists, as Winter Haven is held by some to be the “water skiing capital of the world”. This reputation is at least partially due to the fact that the city limits of Winter Haven embrace nearly three and a half dozen lakes, many of which are connected by canals. The Water Ski Museum and Hall of Fame is located in Winter Haven and swimming and boating are also popular pastimes for both visitors and residents.
Guests of Winter Haven vacation villas and cabins will not be limited to water sports, however. The Cypress Gardens, a combination aviary, reptile house, and garden are another popular attraction, and Bok Tower Gardens, a somewhat similar attraction, is located to the southeast.
