The best dog friendly neighborhoods in Lake Placid
48
East Interlake
Just off of Highway 27 is the neighborhood of East Interlake, the perfect spot to park your car and take Fido on a casual stroll up and down the sidewalks to get a feel for this quaint southern town. Here, you will find many of the murals that Lake Placid is famous for, and an abundance of family-run shops with that friendly, personal touch. Fido will enjoy Stuart Park, where pets with leashes are allowed, and you may run into some festive events that occur many times throughout the year. You can grab a meal to-go from a nearby restaurant, then relax with Fido on a bench or picnic table to enjoy your grub and the scenic atmosphere.

Lake June
Lake Placid is also home to another gorgeous neighborhood, Lake June. Here you can visit the Lake June-in-Winter Scrub State Park (yes, that's the actual name), the 845-acre preserve with the specific purpose of protecting the endangered natural sand scrub. You and Fido will enjoy hiking through the scrub, but remember that the sugar sand can get very hot on sensitive paws. The park is a full natural experience without amenities, so plan ahead with lots of water and clean-up bags! If you prefer your outdoors experiences to have more in the way of amenities, you can visit Lake June Park, where you can enjoy the lake atmosphere with quick access to bathrooms and water.

Lake Istokpoga
Seven miles down the road from Lake Placid is another treasure of nature, Lake Istokpoga Park. This 26,762-acre lake spreads across the entire county, but you can access it out of the park in Sebring. You and Fido will enjoy fishing off of the docks, exploring the surrounding trails, or hopping on an airboat to immerse yourselves in nature. When you are on your way there, stop in at the local's favorite Italian food found at Roserio's Pizzeria. This family owned and operated restaurant has outdoor patio seating so that you and Fido can fill your stomachs after a long day on the lake!

Lake Wales Ridge
Highlands County is known for its unique ecosystem, the Lake Wales Ridge. Here in Lake Placid, you can explore the tracts of land along the designated trails, where dogs are allowed as long as they are on leashes at all times. Be sure to only visit the Lake Placid Scrub and Carter Creek tract, as hunting is allowed on the Royce Unit tract during certain seasons. There are no restrooms or basic amenities on these trails, so be sure you plan ahead for you and Fido to stay hydrated, as the sugar sand and arid ecosystem can get very hot and humid quickly.

Hammock Road
A bit of a hike (figuratively speaking) about 20 minutes from Lake Placid is the famous Highlands Hammock State Park. This nature preserve is 9,000 acres of land set aside for wildlife preservation and public nature exploration. A small fee is required to enter, at which time you can park at the pavilion area or drive through the park and search for other trails. Once you find one of the dozens of intersecting and independent trails that you are interested in, simply park off of the road and take Fido to explore the gorgeous natural outdoors found only in Florida. Be sure to take Fido on a leashed stroll down the catwalk!
