Quiet Port Orange neighborhood near Spruce Creek
Located slightly inland from other Port Orange communities near Rose Bay and the Halifax River, Hamlet still offers easy access to all the water-related activities and beaches popular in the region, like Daytona Beach, which is less than 10 miles away. The small residential neighborhood extends west from Spruce Creek Road, which locals use to reach a large community park to the south and Highway 54 to the north. Hamlet is nearby well-regarded schools and homes tend to more affordable than other parts of Port Orange, plus "there's no homeowners association in the community, and people really like that," says Kelly Forrester, co-owner and broker with Palm and Pine Realty. "You'll see people with campers or boats in their driveways. They don't need to be hidden away like in other communities. People in Port Orange are very active, so it helps not to be concerned with those things."

Dog park and Pirate Ship Park
Leisure time in Hamlet can be spent seafaring from the inland waterways or the Atlantic shores of Daytona Beach. “Some people go to Daytona Beach, but others like the quiet of Wilbur Beach, which is here in Port Orange," says Lancelot Lenard, a broker associate with Florida Homes Realty & Mortgage and longtime resident of Port Orange. "A little further south, we have Ponce Inlet, which has a lighthouse, a boat launch and a Marine Science Center.” Even resident pups have a place to play at Seemor Memorial Dog Park, part of the Spruce Creek Recreational Center. The park has separate fenced areas for larger and smaller dogs, allowing for off-leash play while owners relax on shaded benches. Many residents also walk their dogs along the winding trail to a well-equipped sports complex. Local youth athletes practice and compete on the baseball fields, and neighbors meet for matches on Spruce Creek Park's six tennis courts. The star attraction for playdates is a themed playground known as Pirate Ship Park by locals. Hamlet is also just 5 miles from Crane Lakes Golf & Country Club, an 18-hole semi-private course.
