Suburban Neighborhood in Holiday, Florida
Pasco County 34691
A quiet residential neighborhood whose streets are populated by palms and other native trees, Holiday Lake Estates occupies a convenient location on the Nature Coast a little over 30 miles northwest of Tampa. “It’s close to beaches, boating and fishing,” says Pam Pampanella, a Realtor with New Dimensions in Real Estate, who has sold homes in the Clearwater/Tampa Bay area for two decades. “You can practically walk to Anclote Beach.”
Anclote River Park, 31 acres at the mouth of the river, which flows westward into the Gulf of Mexico, is not only home to Anclote Beach but also a fishing pier, picnic pavilions, and boat and kayak launches. Nearby is the Anclote Village Marina, where folks can book a charter at Bottoms Up Fishing Excursions. Adjacent to the marina is Miss Vicki’s On The River, an Old Florida-style dockside restaurant.
Housing in Holiday Lake Estates consists of a collection of ranch-style homes on mid-sized lots with yards and private driveways. The homes are differentiated by architectural flourishes that include Craftsman-inspired use of natural materials, Mission-style entryways and angular dormers. Home sizes range from around 900 to 1,400 square feet, and prices typically fall between $200,000 and $370,000.
Without public transit nearby, Holiday Lake Estates residents rely on their cars for the 55-minute commute to Tampa or the 20-mile journey to Clearwater.
Pinellas Avenue provides residents with access to nearby retail and dining options. The Anclote Corners shopping mall is anchored by The Market Place of Tarpon Springs, a popular indoor flea market, and the Daybreak Café, a favorite breakfast spot. Only a few blocks away is the Tarpon Springs Aquarium & Animal Sanctuary. This family-run attraction is known for its interactive shows where visitors can hold, pet and even feed a variety of marine animals. Pinellas Avenue connects directly to downtown Tarpon Springs and the vibrant Sponge Exchange Shopping Village, where a refurbished Greek fishing village is home to a variety of shops and restaurants, like Pelican Gifts and Mama's Greek Cuisine.
A trip to the beach is likely to take one past several educational institutions that serve the neighborhood. “All the schools are right there, within walking distance,” Pampanella says. Gulfside Elementary School, rated a C-plus by Niche, offers specialized programs before and after school in traditional subjects, such as art and reading, along with alternative subjects, such as yoga and Legos. Paul R. Smith Middle School, also given a C-plus rating, operates under a three-point plan to maintain academic standards, while Anclote High School, which earns a B-minus, offers the Cambridge International learning tract, focusing on college preparation based on a global curriculum. Neighborhood youth can take advantage of the amenities at the nearby J. Ben Harrill Recreational Complex, home to the Greater Holiday Little League. The complex provides an array of indoor and outdoor athletic opportunities, and visitors can fish and watch birds amid the natural Florida landscape.
The neighborhood is served by the Holiday Lake Estates Civic Association. The independent, multipurpose organization, which has been part of the community since 1969, hosts community events throughout the year. Monthly meetings are held at the recently renovated community center, which can be rented out for private parties and celebrations. Annual association-sponsored events include a community cleanup day. The neighborhood’s first pet expo was held in the spring, and the first back-to-school night, featuring free haircuts, was slated for late summer. The organization keeps residents up to date on events and pertinent news through its website as well as an active neighborhood Facebook page.
