About Fischer Lake
Fischer Lake is a natural body of water. It is not man-made. The lake is quite long, stretching about 1,775 feet (541 meters). It is also about 1,000 feet (305 meters) wide. This gives it a total area of about 27 acres. The lake's surface is about 82 feet (25 meters) above sea level.
Location and Surroundings
Fischer Lake is nestled between the cities of Ocoee, Florida and Orlando. It is partly surrounded by residential housing. This means people live in homes near the lake. A special place called Camp Ithiel is also located on the lake's southwest shore.
Most of the lake's edges are swampy. This means the land around the lake is wet and marshy. This type of environment is common in Florida.
Public Access
The Orange County Wateratlas lists Fischer Lake as a private lake. This means it is not open to the public. There are no public areas along its shores for people to visit. This helps protect the lake's natural environment.
