    "We live in a beautiful gated deeded community right on the harbor in Port Charlotte. There are 3 boat clubs/yacht clubs in the local area and many activities associated to boating. Charlotte Harbor provides a great resource to Port Chsrlotte. We have newly established parks at the foot of the 41 bridges and walking paths over both bridges - just beautiful. We have Charlotte Harbor beach which few people seem to know about. Immaculate, tennis courts, small swimming pool, and small beach with community buildings and baths, a boat ramp, and easy put in for kayakers. 100s of parking spaces too. It’s a hidden treasure. Still in Port. Charlotte Harbor is the Cape Haze bike trail. It runs for 16 miles in each direction - perfect flat well maintained paved trail with gorgeous animal habitat and bridges across living estuaries full of all kinds of bid species. The list of activities and community events available is too many for this. "
