Welcome to Lakewood Ranch
Located in southern Manatee County, and extending into north Sarasota County, Lakewood Ranch is made up of over two dozen unique villages. Each features distinctive homes and amenities, offering something for every stage of life, and lifestyle. Some are over 55 communities, some are gated, and some have golf courses. But all enjoy the one common feature of an incredible location. Flanked by Interstate 75, State Route 64, and University Parkway, driving to all the Sarasota/Manatee area and beyond offers is a breeze. The Sarasota-Manatee International Airport is minutes away, and Tampa International is just under an hour’s drive. World-class beaches are not far away, and the area is abundant with shopping and dining options, many of which are located at the Mall at University Town Center. Add all the recreational and cultural events the area offers and you will understand why it is considered one of the most vibrant areas in Sarasota.
