Howey, located between Lake Harris and Little Lake Harris, is a lakeside and golf-oriented Howey-in-the-Hills neighborhood with a waterfront setting and rolling Central Florida hills. The town’s character concentrates around the Mission Inn Resort & Club campus along Mission Inn Way, where fairways, palms, and a resort village feel set the pace. Spanish Revival touches and low-slung residential streets pair with long lake views and boat ramps. The Howey-in-the-Hills Community Park adds courts, fields, and shaded paths for everyday routines. The Howey Mansion and Gardens supplies a local landmark with old-Florida intrigue. Waterfront drives and quiet side roads keep the atmosphere unhurried.
