Summertree

Shared recreation centers on the clubhouse and golf course. The clubhouse has been renovated and overlooks a public nine-hole course, which opened in 1979 and includes a driving range and pro shop. Other listed facilities include a fitness center, swimming pool and spa, tennis courts, and pickleball courts. A listing for Pointe West also names a billiard room, game room, library, and shuffleboard. Facility details cited for one neighborhood should not be taken as a description of every residence or association.

Community life includes opportunities to meet neighbors and take part in activities, though the official site does not publish a regular schedule. A community-specific page names holiday gatherings, themed parties, golf tournaments, and fitness classes among the events. The combination of indoor gathering areas and outdoor recreation offers residents different ways to spend time around the community, whether joining a social event, using the courts, or visiting the golf facilities.

The six associations retain their own governance while participating in the larger community structure. Owners from the component communities serve on the board, with representation tied to the number of residences in each community; the associations elect the directors. Board terms are staggered, and meetings are held monthly, with residents encouraged to attend. This arrangement provides a shared governing structure alongside the separate associations.

Summertree’s recreation facility is located along SR 52 between Little Road and Moon Lake Road, with access from US 19 or the Suncoast Parkway via the highway. The community has been established for more than 40 years. These location and governance details, together with the varied housing types and shared amenities, help distinguish Summertree as an established 55-plus residential community rather than a senior-care setting.
