Few residential communities live up to their name like Hidden Harbor, a private, gated boating community located in south Fort Myers off U.S Highway 41.
Hidden Harbor real estate is made up of only 76 homesites, 54 of them feature waterfront access with boat docks. This allows residents to get to Estero Bay and the Gulf of Mexico via the Ten Mile Canal, a 2-nautical mile boat ride.
Developed by the venerable Stock Development Company beginning in 2016, Hidden Harbor features luxurious estate-sized, single-family homes. They are perfect for the young family or those just seeking the relaxed Florida lifestyle in their retirement.
The community was awarded Community of the Year honors from the Lee Building Industry Association in 2018.
One of Lee County’s best kept secrets, Hidden Harbor is located between The Harborage and Emerson Square residential communities just south of Alico Road.
