Waterfront bedroom community with traditional suburbs and local restaurants

On the southern shore of Lake Weir is the community of Weirsdale. The community was part of the region's massive citriculture enterprise, with several packing houses shipping out locally grown produce sourced by thousands of acres of citrus groves. Nowadays, most locals commute to nearby cities like Ocala from a range of lakefront properties, traditional suburbs and rural homesteads.

Golfing and water sports along Lake Weir
