Surrounded by the rich natural beauty once studied in 1774 by William Bartram, America’s first native-born naturalist, Heritage Landing is being carefully developed to maintain its environmental integrity. Not only do residents enjoy an abundance of natural amenities, such as indigenous wildlife and a variety of native foliage, Heritage Landing’s man-made amenities package is reminiscent of a simpler time, yet easily rivals that of any five-star resort.

Heritage Landing’s Amenity Center, currently under construction, is the epitome of rustic chic. “ Camp Heritage” harkens back to the good old days when playing a round of horseshoes and campfire storytelling came before today’s video games and television marathons.

As the cornerstone of the community, the planned main facilities of Camp Heritage are reminiscent of the traditional Florida “Cracker” style houses built by our early settlers. The facilities will be constructed of durable stressed Mountain Heart Pine, clapboard-style siding, a cedar shake finish, natural stone accents and silver metal roofing. Covered front and back porches will serve as wonderful places to get to know neighbors and foster new friendships.

Incorporated into Heritage Landing’s unspoiled natural setting is a “summer camp” theme that perfectly blends the great outdoors with modern convenience. Camp Central will house a multitude of indoor amenities, such as a Clubhouse with multi-purpose “Heritage Room,” state-of-the-art fitness facility, men and women’s bath houses, catering kitchen, bar and much more.

Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy Camp Heritage’s camp activity area, featuring: An outdoor storytelling pavilion with campfire ring and movie screen; bath houses for men and women, volleyball and horseshoe pits, shuffleboard and bocce ball courts, fishing pier, shade pavilion, event lawn, open pavilion with cozy fireplace, verandas and much more.

Camp Central’s unrivaled water amenities will include: A six-lane, heated competition pool, a lookout tower with body flume, a “swimming hole,” sugar sand beach, fun pools with geyser and spring themes, as well as gator and manatee sculptures.

According to James Teagle, amenities project manager for D.R. Horton, “ Lookout Tower” will provide a lot of excitement for Heritage Landing residents. The tower is 48 feet high, and the body flume (slide) is 27 feet high and over 100 feet long.
