A private, gated neighborhood within Waterlefe consisting of 28 residences with boat docks. The home sites are along the Manatee River and the lagoon, which run along the 18th hole of our championship golf course. The Shores residents are members of the MPOA, and pay an additional assessment to the MPOA for services. They have private roads, their own HOA with elected officers, and additional annual HOA fees. They belong to the River Club and may purchase golf memberships. Because of the “private” status of this neighborhood, The Shores are not members of the CDD.
The Shores Board of Directors consists of five homeowners from within the Shores Association that serve multi-year terms to bring leadership and decision-making to the Shores.
The Shores abide by specific design guidelines for the outside of their homes, as does the entire Waterlefe community. The Shores Association utilizes two key documents to guide the design review process: the Shores Blue Book and the Shore DRB Application. Click below to view each document. Please note, residents of the Shores require two approvals for exterior changes. The first approval from the Shores and the second approval from the MPOA.
Many Shores homeowners seek to have trees removed and replaced in their yards for a number of reasons. In order to stay in compliance with the Design Review process, please review the documents below to see the requirements and replacement options for tree removal in the Shores.
