Arrowhead Lake is a small single-residential neighborhood off Arrowhead Lane inside the broader Grenelefe golf and tennis community in Haines City, Polk County, ZIP 33844 (Polk County listings and neighborhood guides, 2026). It sits in the wooded lakes country southeast of Haines City near Lake Marion, a setting Nextdoor neighbors describe as quiet, green, and well kept.
Grenelefe opened as a golf and tennis resort in the 1970s, with the South Course in 1971 and the East Course in 1977, and it was one of the better known Florida golf destinations in the late 1980s and 1990s before changing hands several times (Len Ziehm on Golf and Polk County Golf, 2026). Westgate Resorts owned and operated the resort for years before selling, which sets up the current redevelopment story.
The headline now is change: Polk County has approved redevelopment of the former resort land, with reporting describing plans for roughly 1,900 homes and a separate large project, and Lennar moving forward on an early phase (GrowthSpotter and The Real Deal, 2024 to 2025). That can raise the area profile over time, but it also means construction, added density, and uncertainty about which golf and resort amenities survive in what form.
Because Arrowhead Lake is a small enclave, the money is made or lost on the specific lot and home, the HOA, the road and access, and how the redevelopment lands, not on a townwide average. The work is the diligence: read the HOA documents, pull the latest county-approved redevelopment plan, verify the amenities you are actually buying access to, and check the lot and home by address.
