On the Double Branch Peninsula northwest of Tampa, Upper Tampa Bay offers a laidback lifestyle in a convenient location.

There are several subdivisions in the area, but Eagle Pointe is one of the community’s most recent development of single-family homes. The self-contained neighborhood features a variety of one- and two-story custom homes.

In the less populated waterfront areas on the western branch, you will find large, contemporary style houses mixed with smaller, more traditional Florida housing styles and midsized homes featuring custom designs. Elements of Spanish Mediterranean, bungalow, and farmhouse styles can also be found. Other residential areas include the eastern branch neighborhood located on the northern edge of Upper Tampa Bay Park’s conservation lands.

Upper Tampa Bay is part of the Hillsborough Public School District. Area students are zoned out to Davis Elementary School, Webb Middle School, and Alonso High School, public schools in neighboring communities.

Much of the community is taken up by Upper Tampa Bay Park, a large tract of land left mostly undeveloped to protect the fragile habitat and ecological communities in the area. However, there is public access to amenities throughout the park, like the nature center. There are plenty of nature trails to enjoy, with observation decks and picnic shelters. Fishing opportunities are plentiful, and you might spy manatees, otters and dolphins playing in the waters surrounding the peninsula. Canoe and kayak rentals are available as well.

Other outdoor recreational options include HorsePower for Kids, an animal sanctuary that is home to animals that have been rescued from various circumstances. Kids can visit the petting zoo or take horseback riding lessons. The non-profit organization also hosts camps and field trips. Nearby, Copper Creek Stables offers horseback riding lessons for all ages and skill levels, as well as boarding and training for horse owners.

West Hillsborough Avenue bisects the community, providing relatively easy access to the greater Tampa Bay area. Most of the neighborhood’s retail and dining options can be found along the thoroughfare, including Fat Beet Farm Kitchen and Bakery. In addition to a traditional menu, Fat Beet Farm offers farm tours, educational field trips and three venues for community celebrations and events.

Upper Tampa Bay has two retail centers, including the North Bay Shopping Center at the intersection of Hillsborough Avenue and Racetrack Road that has a Publix and a Lowe’s. Just to the west of it is the Oldsmar Flea Market, a sprawling 28-acre complex where hundreds of vendors come to sell everything from furniture to gourmet food.

GreatSchools: The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
