Discover Lake Como: Orlando’s Hidden Lakeside Jewel
Tucked between the buzz of downtown and the charm of College Park, Lake Como emerges as Orlando’s best-kept secret—a serene waterfront enclave where Spanish moss drips from ancient oaks, modest mid-century cottages mingle with stunning modern rebuilds, and the whole neighborhood feels like a permanent lakeside retreat. This unassuming paradise attracts artists, young families, and urban escape artists who’ve discovered Orlando’s most affordable waterfront living.
Waterfront Living Without the Pretense
Lake Como’s charm includes:
1950s fishing cottages turned artist retreats
Boho-chic bungalows with kayaks parked out front
Contemporary lakehouses on stilts
The occasional A-frame straight from a Florida postcard
Neighborhood Secrets:
✔ Como’s Dock – community fishing pier at golden hour
✔ Secret garden pathways to hidden lake vistas
✔ 10-minute paddle to Dickson Azalea Park
✔ The last affordable downtown-adjacent waterfront
The Lake Como Rhythm
Living here means:
Morning: Coffee on your dock as herons patrol the shoreline
Afternoon: Floating siestas in your inflatable lounge
Evening: BYOB sunset watch parties at the community dock
Weekends: Fish fries with neighbors who become family
Why Lake Como Shines
