2012 Map of Eloise

About this map

Lake Eloise and Lake Winterset dominate this Central Florida landscape, forming part of a complex chain of lakes that has long defined the region's geography and recreation. The residential and commercial development of Eloise and Lake Shipp Heights is visible in the northwest, while the southeastern corner transition toward West Lake Wales and the Lake Wales Municipal Airport. Grounded in the local heritage of Polk County, the map identifies the Whidden Cemetery and the Cypress Gardens Fire Tower, landmarks that provide essential points of reference for genealogists and local historians. The drainage patterns of Peace Cr and Boggy Br weave through the southern half of the quadrangle, illustrating the low-lying terrain and wetlands surrounding smaller bodies of water like Lake Garfield and Flora Lake.
