Best Hidden Treasure Ever! - 1/23/2017
Clermont is an amazing place to live, to love , and to grow. I discovered Clermont a little over 10 years ago by accident, and I thank God that I did. At the time I resided in New York and Pennsylvania, and was desperately looking for a new start. There are so many treasures here, from the many lakes that are at your disposal, to the top rated schools, places of worship and countless restaurants that would satisfy the pickiest eater. The town had grown tremendously over the past 10 years but has never and will never loose its quaint City Charm. People here are warm and friendly and one would appreciate such kindest since I was born in the Caribbean. Read More

sunny and hilly - 3/8/2013
Clermont is situated in the hills of Lake county. We are close to the Orlando Magic and also Disney. The majority of the year it is sunny, which is great for being outdoors. This is a good place to hike fish or enjoy the theme parks. Read More

Nice place to live. - 7/30/2012
Living in Clermont is very peaceful. I feel very safe here. It is also very convenient to all that central Florida is known for. Driving to Disney or the Kissimmee Orlando area is abou 30 minutes. To the beaches less than two hours. Clermont has a lot of chain resteraunts. I wish they had more hometown resteraunts. But when they get one it doesn't seem to last. I also wish they had more hometown activities. They do have a nice Christmas parade and celebration. Except for the awful months of summer heat it is a wonderful place to retire and live a simple life.  Read More
