Royal Harbor is nestled on the shores of Little Lake Harris, part of the Harris Chain of Lakes. Boat and RV storage is included in the HOA fees. The community features a clubhouse with social hall, catering kitchen, arts & crafts room, billiards, library, computer room, and fitness center. Outdoor amenities include a screened, heated Olympic-style pool and spa, as well as tennis, pickleball, bocce, shuffleboard, and more.
