Lake Park Vacation Rentals, Homes, Condos, Villas and Beach Rentals
Lake Park
, or the “Jewel of Palm Beaches,” sits along the Atlantic Coast of Florida, just north of West Palm Beach. Its thriving industry belies its small population. The town of Lake Park, originally called Kelsey City, was Florida’s first zoned municipality and was designed by Dr. John Nolan and the Olmstead Brothers, sons of Frederick (the designer of New York City’s Central Park and the acknowledged founder of American landscape architecture). The historic Lake Park Town Hall sheltered residents during the torrid 1928 hurricane and you can still visit it today! But perhaps what’s more interesting is Lake Park’s 24-hour Dunkin Donuts diner, the only one in the world; it reopened in 2005 after Hurricane Katrina forced it to close for six months. The humble community of Lake Park is located just an hour or so north of Miami, making it a refreshing stopping point along Florida’s famed southeastern coastline for travelers who want to escape the busy urban metropolis.

Lake Park Weather & Climate
South Florida , in the Palm Beach area, has a combination of warm temperatures and high humidity that can be uncomfortable from May through September. Interestingly enough, however, even though south Florida is closer to the equator, it is usually a few degrees cooler than the northern part of the state due to cooling onshore breezes. Thunderstorms are the main source of rain in Florida, which has more of these storms than any other state. Their frequency and intensity usually peak in August and September, but they can continue into November in the southern part of the state. South Florida receives 70 percent of its rainfall during these months. The subtropical climate of this area enjoys delightful winters with warm, comfortable temperatures, low humidity, and lots of sunshine and tropical breezes.
