Kissimmee's own lake, and nationally known bass water.
Lake Tohopekaliga — Lake Toho — is a 22,700-acre lake in Kissimmee at the head of the Kissimmee Chain of Lakes, a 40-mile-shoreline bass-fishing destination that's hosted Bassmaster Elite Series events, anchored by Kissimmee Lakefront Park and Big Toho Marina.
Lake Tohopekaliga sits in the city of Kissimmee, 22,700 acres at the head of the Kissimmee Chain of Lakes and the source of the Kissimmee River. Locals call it Lake Toho or Big Toho, distinct from neighboring East Lake Tohopekaliga near St. Cloud. The lake's islands sheltered Seminole resistance during the Second Seminole War, and the small trading post that grew on its shore, Allendale, became Kissimmee. Kissimmee Lakefront Park, a 25-acre park the city built in 1926, anchors the lake's east shore alongside Big Toho Marina, Captain and Tequila Dockside, and the breakfast-focused Kissimmee Marina cafe. West Lake Toho Boat Ramp and Southport Regional Park's south-shore ramp and airboat concession cover the rest of the lake's public access. Downtown Kissimmee's Monument of States, a 1942 tower built from over 1,500 stones sent from every state and 21 countries, sits a short walk from the lakefront. Lake Toho is nationally known bass-fishing water, hosting Bassmaster Elite Series and Major League Fishing events.
