Howey-in-the-Hills
Pristine Howey-in-the-Hills is a rural village located on the shoreline of Little Lake Harris. The town is secluded from, yet convenient to, the rest of Orlando’s attractions and both of Florida’s coasts.
It is delightful, quiet, safe and well-kept community that offers family focused living surrounded by a striking panorama of glistening lakes and nestled among the gently rolling hills.
With its predominant 1920’s architecture, it is a town that thrives on tradition, while also integrating a successful blend of the old and the new.
Two country clubs offer exquisite dining, challenging golf and resort amenities. An adjacent recreation area offers fishing and boating. With a variety of other outdoor activities, it is a natural eco-friendly destination.
A relaxed country feel prevails through unparalleled natural beauty as nature is forever preserved in the Griffin Waterfront Park as well as the Sara Maude Mason Nature Preserve.
Here the essence of the town is once again captured in family neighborhoods where children can freely play and neighbors greet one another.
The town was founded by William John Howey and incorporated as "Howey" on May 8, 1925. In 1927, the name was officially changed to Howey-in-the-Hills to reflect the beautiful rolling hills and sparkling lakes, which he dubbed "the Florida Alps". Mr Howey envisioned a great citrus empire with the Town as its commercial and shipping hub.
