    Beautiful Baptist Lake has much to offer visitors. Baptist Lake is a reasonably wet place commonly with lots of rainfall; the month with most of the rain is July; October is when it's the driest. After a long day outdoors Comfort Inn Mt. Dora is a brilliant spot to spend a night or two, and you can stay the night at Ocala Forest Campground. At Baptist Lake through the warm months highs are in the 90's while nighttime lows are mostly in the 70's. The wintertime  
   brings highs down to the 60's, and through the dark hours in the winter at Baptist Lake temperatures plunge to the 40's.
Good hiking is available along the Baptist Lake Trasil, and if you've had enough of Baptist Lake, Lake Dorr is close by. And if you're still looking for more outdoors entertaining stuff just keep reading. The Prairie Trail offers hiking at its best, naturally you could also explore Greens Waterhole while you're here; it's not far at all.
 
               Hiking is a popular thing to do around Baptist Lake; Flatwoods Trail is a great local trail.
This lake is so wonderful. A delightful nearby hotel is Ecom Lodge. There's so much to do here at Baptist Lake that you need to camp here for a while, Olde Mill Stream RV Park is a fine spot for that. Golf can be played at Twin Lakes Reserve & Golf Club; Devils Bay is an interesting swamp near Baptist Lake.
