The 45 acres of Lake Idamere Park, located off State Road 19 along County Road 448, offers a variety of things to do from a leisurely canoe or kayak around Lake Idamere, a relaxing 1 miles hike on the nature trail, to a shaded picnic while children of any ability play on the playground or come out on a Saturday and watch a game on the Miracle Field.

The park also features a dog park with areas for different size dogs, pavilions with grills and tables for a cookout or picnic, fishing pier, and a 2-mile hiking trail. It is also the site of Lake County's first Miracle League Field. Miracle League Field has a special surface that allows persons of all abilities to enjoy sports like baseball and track & field.

The park also has many species of native plants and the park received a donation of 16 Bald Cypress and numerous other native plants to increase the beauty and biodiversity of the park.
