Located about three miles northwest of Downtown Orlando, Spring Lake features an idyllic setting highlighted by its scenic namesake lake. Spring Lake offers a variety of houses and apartments for rent throughout the community, but the most desirable rentals tend to be those on the lake itself.

Right above the lake lies the Country Club of Orlando, the community's other major attraction. Locals stop in to practice their golf swing, play a few sets of tennis, or grab dinner at the club. When residents need to run some errands or feel like dining out, Colonial Drive is usually the answer as the main commercial thoroughfare in the community, where Magic Mall and more are within close reach.
