An enclave on Florida's Nature Coast surrounded by outdoor recreation
Seven Springs has been a sought-after community since the late 1800s. Seven miles off the shores of the Gulf of Mexico, the west-central Florida area began attracting newcomers with its mineral springs and has since lured homebuyers for its natural beauty and proximity to outdoor recreation. “The waterfront area just west of Seven Springs is called ‘The Nature Coast’ because you won’t find your traditional sandy beachfront,” says Brian Lee Swann, President of Pasco County Historical Society. “They’re more natural areas with trails. It’s traditionally been a retirement destination, but now it’s also a place for vacation homes.” Nature preserves, hiking trails and a prestigious golf club surround Seven Springs. A few miles east of a major thoroughfare, the community is also convenient to big-city amenities. “The whole west side of Pasco County is being developed like crazy right now because you have an easy commute to the Clearwater/Tampa area, and you can be at the airport in a half-hour,” Swann says. Downtown New Port Richey is 6 miles away, and the vibrant Tarpon Springs Historic District is a 13-mile drive.

The 80-acre James E. Grey Preserve is directly west of Seven Springs. It has an observation deck overlooking miles of protected riverfront and swamps, a canoe launch, fishing spots and a riverside boardwalk. Heartwood Preserve, 4 miles east, is a natural burial site and protected area filled with cypress wetlands and pine flatwoods. The preserve offers natural trails, a 100-year-old oak tree, educational tours and activities.
