A Country Town Vibe with Small City Amenities
Keystone Heights is a small city located in northeastern Florida, United States. The city is situated in Clay County and is part of the Jacksonville metropolitan area. With a population of around 1,500, Keystone Heights is a peaceful and picturesque community that offers a small-town lifestyle with easy access to big-city amenities. We are an hour’s drive from historic St. Augustine and Jacksonville, with Gainesville and the GNV airport only a half hour away.
Located in Rural Clay County
One of the most appealing aspects of Keystone Heights is its natural beauty. The city is surrounded by several lakes and parks, making it an ideal location for outdoor enthusiasts. Some of the most popular recreational areas in Keystone Heights include Lake Geneva, Brooklyn Lake, and Gold Head Branch State Park. These areas offer a wide range of activities such as fishing, boating, swimming, hiking, and camping.
Coffee Shops, Restaurants & Retail
Keystone Heights is also home to a vibrant downtown area that features an array of shops, restaurants, and local businesses. Sip your morning brew at FirePower Coffee Roasters, grab some supplies at Bryan’s Ace Hardware, then have a bite at Brooklyn Boys Pizzeria. Our modest downtown district is known for its charming small-town atmosphere and friendly residents. One of the most popular events in Keystone Heights is the annual Fall Festival, which takes place in the downtown area and features live music, food vendors, and carnival rides.
A Slower & Simpler Lifestyle
In addition to its natural beauty and downtown district, Keystone Heights is also a place you can enjoy the benefits of being a Floridian while escaping the constant construction and intimidating traffic that has swallowed up the more developed cities like Orlando. Our town has certainly grown recently and we all enjoy the new businesses popping up, but we still move at a slower pace than you’ll find in the big cities.
The Hidden Gem of North Florida
Overall, Keystone Heights is a wonderful place to live, work, and visit. Its natural beauty, small-town charm, and excellent schools make it an ideal location for families, retirees, and anyone seeking a laid-back and peaceful lifestyle. Whether you’re looking to explore the great outdoors, support local businesses, or simply relax and enjoy the scenery, Keystone Heights has something for everyone.
They have an amazing staff. Everyone is so sweet and caring!
