Frostproof Real Estate Information
 Frostproof is a small town located in the heart of South-Eastern Polk County just between the Clinch Lake and Lake Reedy. Originally named Keystone City, the name was changed to Frostproof as a marketing appeal to help persuade potential residents who originally began the citrus industry here. Bordered by the Lake Wales Ridge State Forest and the Tiger Creek Nature Conservancy, Frostproof is filled with wide-open spaces and serene wildlife. Because of Frostproof’s convenient central Florida location, homeowners here have an easy and convenient access to local interstates and highways, making the commute to Tampa, MacDill, Brandon, Lakeland or Orlando a breeze!
