From the Coldwell Banker Islands & Resorts listing:
The best fishing in the lake exists off the island’s eastern side. And Lake Harris, being part of a chain of lakes and waterways, even enjoys boating access to the Atlantic Ocean.
A mainland parcel connecting the lake’s shoreline with a paved road provides an access link to Long Island, which remains a wondrously secluded, serene sanctuary whose sensitive use assures the preservation of its magnificent attributes for generations to come.
