Okahumpka

Okahumpka, Florida, is a small census-designated place in Lake County. Nestled just west of Leesburg and part of the Orlando–Kissimmee metro area. Cultural and historical depth enriches the town’s character. The Historic Campbell House, dating to around 1880, stands as a well-preserved example of frame-vernacular architecture and bears local historical significance —including ties to civil-rights figure Virgil D. Hawkins. Similarly, the Okahumpka Rosenwald School—one of only two remaining in Lake County—is now being preserved as a community landmark.

Residents enjoy both quiet rural life and easy access to Central Florida’s amenities. Okahumpka lies within mere minutes of Leesburg’s shops and services and is well-positioned for access to attractions like the Lake Harris chain, vineyards, and Orlando’s theme parks. Okahumpka offers a compelling mix: affordable and appreciating real estate, family-friendly demographics, a rich historical backdrop, and convenient central location. It’s a welcoming small-town haven—ideal for first-time homebuyers, growing families, history buffs, and investors seeking value and charm in Central Florida.
