Fleming Island Plantation versus Eagle Harbor? (houses, neighborhoods, new construction)

[titaniummd]

Anyone have knowledge/experience between the two communities? Both have CDD fees, golf, tennis, swimming etc, but is one more desirable than the other?

I was just considering what is better for resale in the future.

Our family is thinking of relocating and looking at these 2 neighborhoods also. Can someone please help by providing what they feel are the pros and cons of the two locations.

I opted for Fleming Island Plantation. I was looking for a new construction house.

The neighborhoods are subdivided into discrete 'villages' with no through traffic. They have 2 water parks (one for lap swimming and the other for kids). They also have golf, clay tennis courts, beach volleyball courts and basketball courts. It is in close proximity to the schools and library.

The disadvantage is that there are less social activities that Eagle Harbor has. Eagle harbor has through streets and no true distinction among 'villlages' in the area. A lot of the streets are 'throughfares' which is not as safe for my taste. Houses (resales) are overpriced for the age of the homes. They have more pool / water parks.
