The Community
Waterfront homes with deeded slips and quick access to the lake's widest waters.
History
Harbor at the Pointe was developed in the early 2000s as a boater-first alternative to the larger gated estate communities nearby. Built around a working community marina and protected deep-water cove, the neighborhood attracted owners who wanted serious lake access — covered slips, easy main-channel runs, and a place to park the wakeboat — without the country-club overhead of The Point or The Peninsula.
Lifestyle
Life here is organized around the dock. Mornings start with coffee on the screened porch overlooking the slip; weekends mean early launches to Bird Island, sunset cruises back through the marina channel, and dock parties that spill from one boat to the next. The community skews boating families and active retirees who came for the water and stayed for the neighbors.
Architecture
