If you are wondering how the lake got its name it was named after John Henry Hollingsworth. He and his family were some of the first settlers in Lakeland Fl. He settled a cabin on the southeast corner of Lake Hollingsworth. He soon left the cabin because strong winds that came off of the lake kept blowing the door open to his cabin. In the 1840’s you never knew what might come through your open door.
On the northwestern side of the lake you will find Florida Southern College and Thomas B Mack Park. The Lakeland Country Club and the Lakeland Water Ski Club are on the southern portion of the lake. The drive on Lake Hollingsworth Drive or jog around the lake on the Lake to Lake Trail is just under 3 miles.
