Established in 1877, the Eldora community thrived along the Mosquito Lagoon, with a population of around 200 residents. The town's economy centered on citrus farming, fishing, and timber. However, the devastating freezes of 1894-1895 destroyed citrus crops, leading to the town's decline. Today, the Eldora State House, also known as the Moulton–Wells House, is the last remaining home from the Eldora community. Located within the Canaveral National Seashore, the house has been restored and now serves as a museum, offering visitors a glimpse into the area's rich history.
