About Golf View
Park
Golf View Park, located between Lake Wales Country Club and Lake Wailes Park, is a residential and golf-adjacent Lake Wales neighborhood with mature shade trees and a laid-back streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Lake Wales Country Club clubhouse area, where fairway views, golf carts, and quiet side streets set the daily rhythm. Homes lean toward mid-century Florida ranches and low-slung builds with broad lawns and screened patios. Curving roads and pocket greens give the area a park-like feel without feeling remote. Lake Wailes Park adds a waterfront loop and open lawns for a change of scenery. Downtown Lake Wales’ cultural anchors—Lake Wales Little Theatre and the Lake Wales History Museum—sit a short drive away for evenings out.
