About Eclectic
Eclectic sits in Elmore County, just a few minutes south of Lake Martin. It offers a relaxed, small-town setting where life centers around local schools, youth sports, and easy weekends on the water. Wetumpka is about fifteen minutes down the road and Montgomery is under an hour away, making it easy to commute or run errands while keeping a quiet home base.
The town got its unusual name back in the late 1800s from Dr. M.L. Fielder, a local doctor who practiced eclectic medicine. Today, you will find a tight-knit community anchored by places like Aaron Park, the Panther Palace playground, and busy baseball fields. If you want a peaceful pace with Lake Martin right in your backyard, Eclectic is an easy place to settle in.
