Online Highways Home > Florida > Lake Helen Lake Helen is located in Volusia County north of Orlando between Orlando and Daytona Beach along Interstate 4 near Lake Woodruff, Lake Ashby and the Ocala National Forest. Lake Helen is part of the Daytona Beach, Florida metro area. Starting from a single log cabin in 1858, the area around a small lake to the southeast of Deland remained relatively undeveloped until Henry DeLand turned began the building process in 1883. He named it after his daughter Helen, established a sawmill, built a hotel and the low key boom was off and running. More recently "downtown" development surrounds an equestrian and recreational area. Dominating one side is a modern industrial complex, once the home of a leading exercise machine manufacturer (Nautilus), now occupied by Pyramax Studios.
