History

Betmar Realty Corp has been part of the park since its development in the late sixties.  Our service and expertise are dedicated exclusively to current and future Betmar residents.  Our goal is to apply the experience earned over many years of service in the park to each transaction in a professional manner that brings satisfaction to all our sellers and buyers.  

In 1966, Florida boasted four mobile home parks.  Seizing an opportunity, Mr. M.H. Meengs bought 200 acres of farmland along Highway 54, including a caretaker's home, which is now our office building.

Mr. Meengs took George Sprinkle as a a partner and the men named the park Betmar, for their wives, Betty and Mary, respectively and as the demand grew, they purchased more land.  Shortly after, 185 acres known as Lake Betmar Estates was added, 65 acres of recreational land was acquired. Later, Betmar was bought by Betmar Owners, Inc. which oversees activities, clubs, while Betmar Acres, Inc. works with property and possessions.  Beginning with one clubhouse, shuffle court, and a three par golf course, Betmar has grown to include three busy clubhouses, 24 shuffle courts, 3 par 3-4 executive golf courses.
