Located at the northern-most part of Brevard County, Scottsmoor is where the Indian River originates.

While Scottsmoor is relatively undeveloped compared to other communities in Brevard County, its history runs deep. The area was settled in 1821 by James Garvin, who acquired a land through a Spanish Land Grant.

An outdoor enthusiasts dream, Scottsmoor has a horse arena and camping is available, with a few stores and restaurants for necessities. Parrish Park, the 5-acre neighborhood park located west of U.S. 1 in Scottsmoor, is landscaped with palms and hardwood trees. The outdoor basketball court and softball field are both popular attractions. Several picnic tables and a playground invite family gatherings.

This unincorporated community is home to more than 1,600 residents whose main commerce is the citrus industry. During winter months numerous orange and grapefruit stands dot the landscape of this rural community where land is inexpensive and country living is preferred.
