Every once in awhile, we happen upon a home that has been "Flocked" by the Fleming Island Presbyterian Church. What a great and fun idea! The pink flamingos are hilarious in the front yard and the honorees must get a kick out of coming out of their home to a gaggle of plastic pink birds :) This is just another example of the sense of humor and fun that the residents of Eagle Harbor enjoy. Fleming Island FL is one great place to live!

    t The Bridge at the Entrance to Eagle Harbor is one of the focal points of the beginning of our neighborhood. This Saturday, young women in ball gowns and young men in tuxedoes will arrive in droves to be photographed on and in front of the bridge at Eagle Harbor FL before heading to the Fleming Island High School Prom. It is 'picture perfect' as they say. Wedding parties have also been known to drop by, along with familiies, friends and other groups. If you have a group who wants a terrific backdrop for a photograph, come on down! It's free, there's plenty of room to park on the grass beside Highway 17, and with so many beautiful trees nearby, the light is almost always great.

Sunsets on Fleming Island ~ it's one of the perks of Florida living. Big water, big sunsets. The sun is setting over Doctor's Lake, an inlet of the St. John's River which is one mile wide and four miles long. The St. Johns is three miles wide just up from where Doctor's Lake empties into the mighty River. Public boat ramps, marinas, and private docks are waiting to launch your dream of life on the water.

Waterfront Living on Fleming Island FL brought to you by Frank and Sharon Alters of Team Alters There are waterfront living choices for all budgets on Fleming Island Florida, from canal homes leading to the St. Johns River or Doctor's Lake, to homes right on the River or Doctor's Lake or Swimming Pen Creek. Some people want to live on the water for the view; others just want to put their boat in the water and head out every chance they get. If you are in the market for a waterfront home for sale in the Fleming Island area, consider: 1. What are the height and draw of your boat? Swimming Pen Creek has height limits going under the bridge. Doctor's Lake Bridge is problematic for larger sailboats. 2. Find out what the depth of water is at LOW tide. The St. Johns is very shallow along the c...
