The City of Arcadia is the county seat for DeSoto County. It is centrally located between Orlando and Ft. Myers; and Sarasota and Lake Okeechobee at the crossroads of US 17 and state route 70.
Arcadia is famous throughout Florida for its historic downtown antique district. Additionally, on the fourth Saturday of each month, vendors from surrounding locations take over our streets with even more wares and precious finds. Tucked in between the shops, you'll have the chance to enjoy café's, home cooking, a tea room and even an old fashion ice cream parlor, complete with homemade delicious flavors, sundaes and shakes.
The Arcadia All-Florida Championship Rodeo is held in March, the Annual Watermelon Festival in May at the height of the harvesting season, and car shows, parades, and special events take place throughout the year.
the best small town in Florida! |
