Epperson is a master-planned community by Metro Development Group located near Tampa Bay in Wesley Chapel, Florida. Upon completion, the 900-acre community will have 3,000 residential homes. The project’s centerpiece is the massive 7.36-acre lagoon, giving homebuyers and visitors a taste of the Caribbean. The lagoon provides residents and guests access to a white sandy beach, swim-up bar, water slide, kayak and paddleboard rentals, and an entertaining pavilion. Due to the success, part of the lagoon is also open to the public, being the first real estate project transformed into a Public Access Lagoons™ development. The lagoon will be a historical project due to its individuality and status as “The First Man-Made Crystalline Lagoon in the U.S.”
