MetroWest is a family-oriented, master planned golf community situated on 1800 acres in southwest Orlando. The concept of MetroWest was born almost 20 years ago when a group of insightful developers outlined the vision of a true urban village in which people could live comfortably, conduct business, play championship golf, and admire an impeccably maintained landscape, while still having the benefit of the most convenient location in all of Central Florida. What was once only a vision is now a reality, manifested in the vibrant, thriving master-planned community of Metrowest. Approximately 1200 acres in Metrowest is either being developed or has been developed already with single family homes, multifamily residential or commercial real estate. The remaining 600 acres is reserved for green space, including golf courses and roadways.
The four gilded bronze horses known as "quattro cavalli" are replicas of the statues which have adorned Saint Mark's Basilica in Venice, Italy for centuries. Veranda Park's Quattro Cavalli were created in Pietra Santa, Italy. The horse statues in Venice were taken from the hippodrome of Constantinople during the Fourth Crusade. Turkey Lake - Bill Frederick ParkTurkey Lake Park is conveniently located within Metrowest and hosts the annual Fish Orlando! event. In order to limit fishing pressure and maintain quality, boat fishing is limited (outside of special events) to five boats, Thursday - Sunday from 6:30 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. The Citys boat concession area also rents fishing poles and sells a limited selection of bait and tackle. These loaner boats are the only way the public can legally fish Turkey Lake from a watercraft. Turkey Lake Park offers camp sites, primitive cabins, a swimming pool, numerous picnic pavilions and bathrooms, a kids playground area, a Frisbee golf course and a mock-up of a Florida Cracker farm. For boat loaner reservations call Turkey Lake Park at 407-299-1248. For other Park questions call 407-299-5581. The history of Bill Frederick Park at Turkey Lake goes back to the 1970's when it was a visionary purchase during Mayor Carl Langford's administration. Fortunately, Mayor Bill Frederick and Mayor Glenda Hood recognized the value of keeping this recreational and ecological jewel maintained and sustained for future generations. On January 24, 2004, the City of Orlando's largest park was renamed in honor of Mayor Bill Frederick to Bill Frederick Park at Turkey Lake. Metrowest Orlando Florida
