Let’s dive into what makes this community a standout choice for homebuyers.

A Name Rooted in History
The name “Hunt Club Groves” pays homage to the historical Hunt Bros. citrus packinghouse, a Lake Wales institution for nearly a century until its closure in 2022 as well as the orange groves which previously existed on the grounds this community was built on and the groves which still surround it. This connection reflects the area’s rich agricultural past, seamlessly blended with the community’s contemporary design.

Financial Snapshot
Homeownership here comes with manageable fees: a monthly HOA fee of $95 plus a one-time $100 capital contribution fee. Additionally, the CDD payment is approximately $2,000 per year, covering community maintenance and enhancements. Additionally the builder is currently offering a promotional interest rate of 4.99%, well under the market rate which is hovering around mid 7% range.
Prime Location and Local Conveniences
Nestled behind Rural King, between Hunt Bros. Rd. and Hamlin Rd., Hunt Club Groves offers easy access to everyday needs. The community is fronted by two commercial centers along Highway 60 which include a Super Walmart, with a new Aldi being built in a former Winn-Dixie location, as well as the previously mentioned Rural King enhancing shopping options. In the parking lot of the Walmart and Rural King shopping centers, you’ll find convenient dining options like Taco Bell, McDonald’s, Wendy’s, China Garden, and Hibachi Express, perfect for a quick bite or family meal. More sit down restaurants like Manny’s Chophouse and All-Star Grill are also nearby.
Nearby Attractions and Outdoor Fun
Just a 5-10 minute drive away, Bok Tower Gardens offers stunning landscapes and carillon concerts. Downtown Lake Wales, a short trip from the community, is undergoing revitalization with new shops, restaurants, and a farmers market held on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays. Lake Wailes Park, with its scenic 2.3-mile multi-use trail, is also close by, ideal for biking or a leisurely walk. For family fun, Legoland is just a 30-minute drive from Hunt Club Groves, offering a world of interactive play, while Disney World is about an hour away, perfect for a magical day trip. These attractions add to the community’s appeal for families and visitors alike.
Beaches are within reach, with Clearwater on the Gulf Coast and Vero Beach on the Atlantic Coast both about 1.5 to 2 hours away by car. Lake Wales’ inland location provides added safety from hurricanes compared to coastal markets, with reduced wind strength and no storm surge risk, though preparedness is always key. Lake Wales inland nature also means lower insurance premiums than coastal markets.
