Imperial Lake is a
Planned Unit Development
At the heart of the community is the huge lake, a former limestone quarry and estimated to be 60 feet deep in the middle. The regulations allow for swimming, fishing, kayaking and boating as long as the boat has no engine. The Club House is at its shores and there is an artificial beach. The amenities are pool, Jacuzzi, sauna, tennis, gym and a large Club House hall, which includes a kitchen, all of it with lake view. The Club House is suitable for weddings, parties and similar activities. There is a security patrol on duty 24 hours. The dues to the Master are $161.84 paid every six months, which makes it the lowest maintenance fee with the most amenities, in the whole South Florida. The periodic dues to each individual sub community are paid separately, but they tend to be relatively low as well.
Right next to the community is North Trail Park, which has jogging paths, basketball, volleyball and tennis courts, a soccer field and children playgrounds. There is a large club house and several pavilions, which can be rented for parties or activities.
The Dolphin Mall, the second largest mall in Florida, is just two minutes drive away and the Miccosukee Resort & Gaming Casino is just 15 minutes drive to the West. Miami International Airport is 18 minutes drive to the East and Downtown Miami is 30 minutes. Those who love dirt biking can drive 3 minutes to 137 Avenue or 15 minutes to the beginning of the Everglades.

The nearby city of Doral, as well as Tamiami Trail and Flagler street, provide plenty of choice for shopping, dining and all kind of services.

Nearby Schools and Points of Interest
Imperial Lake is both peripheral and central. Being on the edge of the developed area of the county has the benefits of relative less traffic, newer properties and relatively lower prices. Being next to the intersection of the 836 and Turnpike expressways, gives it access to everywhere, making it central in fact.
