If you can't live without views of the water, check out the neighborhood surrounding Lake Formosa. Housing options are mostly made up of single family homes; however, it is possible to find a rental or apartment in the area. At Lake Formosa, fishing is allowed, but if you're looking for a place to go boating and fish, then nearby Lake Ivanhoe can do the job. But, if fishing and boating aren't your thing, then Lake Rowena, located east of the neighborhood, provides scenic views and the beautiful Harry P. Leu Botanical Gardens.
