One of the most scenic areas of DeLand is the beautiful Glenwood area. Its landscape is unmistakable as you travel along famed Grand Avenue. The beautiful live oak trees that line the road are enough to prompt feelings of serenity as if you were on a Sunday drive in the deep south. Aside from the landscape, Glenwood is the perfect place for a bike ride via the Spring-to-Spring trail or a great place to launch your boat to access the St. Johns River at Highland Park Fish Camp.
If you are looking to be outside of the hustle and bustle of town and are looking for more property than the average subdivision, Glenwood has the perfect community. On the north side of Grand Avenue lies the three phases of the Glenwood Oaks subdivision. Each phase is gated and offers properties with sizeable homes and enough acreage to park your boat, have a pool or have an external work shed. It is not uncommon to see wildlife such as deer, turkeys and sandhill cranes on a regular basis. Homeowners association fees are extremely affordable at $50 per month.
The location on North Grand Avenue is the perfect proximity to several outdoor attractions and sites. Deleon Springs State Park is within five minutes, as well as the Lake Woodruff National Wildlife Refuge. Nearby dining options include Karlings Inn and Pitmasters Barbecue.
So, perhaps when you are on your next trip to Deleon Springs State Park for fun in the sun, or to eat pancakes at the Old Spanish Sugar Mill, take the scenic drive through Glenwood.
