Gabi18 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Hi guys , I am brand new here, I heard that was one of the best forum about waterski so I figured out I should ask here. I am heading to Florida (south west) in a month to visit some family, and I am looking for a good spot to Waterski and slaloms but don't really know anything about facilities here. I heard about the "Eden ski lake", it seems to be a new Waterski club and the place looks stunning. Have any of you ever been there ? What do you think ? Do you know an other one in the area ? I don't really want to drive to the east coast actually.... Thank you for your help ! G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller andjules Posted February 25, 2016 Baller Share Posted February 25, 2016 If "south west" means Naples/Fort Myers, then yes, Eden Ski Lake seems to be your best bet. You can search the forum here, there are a few helpful posts, here is the most recent post http://goo.gl/8qC1Jw If "south west" means St Petersburg/Tampa, McCormick's is about an hour's drive east, in Seffner.

Gabi18 Posted February 25, 2016 Author Share Posted February 25, 2016 Awesome thank you for your answers, I was looking around Fort Myers beach so I guess my best bet will be Eden ski lake indeed ! After reading all those reviews I think I won't hesitate anymore :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller OldGuysRule Posted February 25, 2016 Baller Share Posted February 25, 2016 I went to Eden around Thanksgiving in 2015. Excellent site, superb coaching, and competitive rates. Easy to get to from Ft. Myers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Chef23 Posted February 25, 2016 Baller Share Posted February 25, 2016 There isn't a public access site I am aware of besides Eden in the Ft. Myers Beach area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabi18 Posted February 29, 2016 Author Share Posted February 29, 2016 Thank you @OldGuysRule , I booked a session trough their website, very easy and you can even chose when exactly you want it. I will let you know how it went :) Thank you for your feed back ! G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Edbrazil Posted February 29, 2016 Baller Share Posted February 29, 2016 You can find the Eden site at: 26.523N, 81.599W. via Google Earth. However, that view is nearly 2 years old, and a lot has happened since, starting with finishing work on the lake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Ali Posted February 29, 2016 Baller Share Posted February 29, 2016 Skied there last week. Great site and great skiing. Clubhouse is under construction, should be finished in a couple of months. Arthur is a nice guy and a good coach. Pretty well protected unless you get a strong north or south wind.

Gabi18 Posted March 16, 2016 Author Share Posted March 16, 2016 Hi guys, I definitely recommend ESL, I had a great time and Arthur was really helpful to me. Patient, kind, exactly what I needed since I am not that professional ! Actually when I was there they were recording a video. They just made a post about it on facebook today, pretty cool to see the result ! It makes me want to come back sooner ! Here is the link if you want to check it : Cheers Gabi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
