The Unique Settlement of Cassadaga

Hidden away in Lake Helen’s southeastern corner is the unique settlement of Cassadaga. Founded as a “spiritualist” camp in the late 1800s, it is in large part a cluster of tiny cottages placed on land controlled by the organization. There are almost as many “mediums” offering “readings” as cottages. Combine that with a location that’s just over an hour from the Disney World-Orlando tourist mecca, and you have a town that has started drawing increasing numbers of inquisitive travelers.

Despite Cassadaga’s growing popularity, it’s still not overrun with visitors. Most congregate in the area of the Cassadaga Road-Stevens Street intersection. But move deeper into the camp, and visitors are struck by just how quiet and peaceful the village is.
