Book excerpt: Excerpt from Eustis, Lake County, Florida Eustis is the center of Lake County, which is directly in the center of the state of Florida, 160 miles south of Jacksonville, and midway between there and Tampa. Sixty miles both east and west separates Eustis from the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico. There are over beautiful fresh water lakes adjacent to Eustis. The town is situated on the eastern shore of Lake Eustis, one of the chain of lakes that have a shore line of 300 miles, and the source of the famous Ocklawaha River, known the world over for its beauty is only six miles away. Eustis offers much to those who delight in the beautiful. The scenic site, its glorious sunsets seen over the lake, its stately pine trees hung with delicate Span ish moss, its splendid streets and sidewalks lined with grand old oaks and eucalyptus trees, its homes and home grounds decorated with tropical plants, palms and flowers in bloom the year round, all combine to produce a charm which attracts and holds all lovers of Florida nature.
