}}Lake Idylwild, which is round, has a surface area of {{convert|95.48|acre|m2|adj=on}}. The lake has one small island, almost rectangular in shape, that measures {{convert|50|ft|m}} by {{convert|45|ft|m}}. It is just north of a canal on the northwest side the leads to Lake Jessie. Lake Idylwild is on the northwest side of Winter Haven, Florida. Residential areas border this lake on the northeast and western shores. On the south side are various commercial buildings. A woody area borders the southeast shore and the northwest shore is bordered by a grassy area.[1][2]

Lake Idylwild has no public access directly. There are no boat ramps or public swimming areas. However, boats may access the lake from three canals. One on the northwest, connects to Lake Jessie. One on the east connects to Lake Hartridge. The third canal, on the south, connects to Lake Cannon. Lake Idylwild is part of the south part of the Winter Haven Chain of Lakes system, so boats may travel some distance to reach this lake. The Take Me Fishing website says this lake contains largemouth bass, black crappie and bluegill.[3]

History

In the 1940s there was an attraction on the shores of Lake Idylwild, called "Idylwyld Gardens". (See reference link #4 and #5 to photos of vintage post cards.) Idylwyld Gardens is now considered to be a "lost park".
