Bear Gully Lake

Spanning roughly 138 acres, Bear Gully Lake is a premium, beautifully hidden body of water nestled on the unincorporated border where Winter Park meets Oviedo. Because it completely lacks public boat ramps, parking, or public beach access, the lake operates as a quiet haven reserved entirely for its surrounding waterfront homeowners. The shoreline is highly sought-after, featuring sweeping manicured lawns, extensive private boat docks, and established multi-million dollar luxury custom estates that enjoy an unhurried, natural Florida ecosystem.

The lifestyle on Bear Gully Lake perfectly blends high-performance motorized watersports with relaxing, passive recreation. The lake is fully ski-legal and remarkably deep for the area—with depths reaching up to 20 feet—allowing residents plenty of wide-open water for wakeboarding, water skiing, and tubing without the heavy outside boat traffic or wake turbulence common on public chains. When the sun begins to set, the water settles into a smooth, glass-like surface, creating the ultimate backdrop for peaceful evening pontoon cruises, paddleboarding, and kayaking.
