The Community

Location, home styles, and what living here is like.

Where is the community located?

River Hall and Hampton Lakes occupy 1,900 master-planned acres in the River Shores district of Alva, Florida, just east of Fort Myers off SR-80, within easy reach of shopping, schools, and Gulf Coast beaches.

What types of homes are available?

Both neighborhoods offer new one- and two-story single-family homes from roughly 1,600 to more than 3,400 square feet, many on lake, preserve, or golf-course homesites.

Is the community gated?

River Hall is a gated neighborhood; Hampton Lakes has its own controlled entry within the master plan. Both share professionally maintained common areas.

Builders & Homes

Lennar homes — features, floor plans, inventory, and incentives.

Who builds homes here?

Lennar, one of the nation’s largest and most established homebuilders, constructs the new single-family homes offered at both River Hall and Hampton Lakes.

What features do the homes include?

Expect open-concept layouts, modern kitchens with quartz countertops, covered lanais, energy-efficient construction, and smart-home technology. Lennar bundles its most popular upgrades into every home through Everything’s Included® — the price you see reflects a fully featured home.

Are there quick move-in homes?

Yes — completed and near-complete homes are almost always available. As of July 2026, move-in ready homes start at $324,947, including the featured corner-lot Carson with $15,000 in closing-cost help. See the Move-In Ready page for the live list.

Are builder incentives available?

Yes. For November 2026, Lennar’s River Hall sales team confirms a rate buydown through Lennar Mortgage and $15,000 toward closing costs, with no date restriction. Every remaining River Hall Country Club home includes Lennar’s design feature package, prices were cut across both communities in late October, and the homes under $300,000 now carry a special cash price.

Membership, the Davis Love III course, and club amenities.

What is River Hall Country Club?

A private club centered on an 18-hole championship golf course designed by Davis Love III, with practice facilities, clubhouse dining, a members’ lakeside pool and Bunker Bar, and a full event calendar.

Who can join the club?

Membership is bundled with every River Hall home, and club facilities are reserved for River Hall residents. Hampton Lakes homeowners enjoy their own dedicated amenity campus at Town Hall.

Do non-golfers still get amenities?

Absolutely. The lagoon pool, fitness center, racquet and bocce courts, trails, and Town Hall events are open to all residents regardless of club membership.

Fees & Ownership

HOA, CDD, club dues, rentals, pets, and golf carts.

What do HOA and community fees cover?

Lennar’s sales team quotes Hampton Lakes HOA dues at $249.40 a month and the CDD at $2,032.99 a year (November 2026). The association’s own 2026 schedule shows $523.91 per quarter ($493.91 on Rainbird lots), about $175 a month, billed 1 January, April, July and October, with a one-time initial contribution equal to one year of assessments due at closing. The two HOA figures do not match, so we confirm the current amount from the HOA documents before you sign. Those dues cover common-area landscaping, amenity facilities, management and security. CDD assessments, which repay the bonds behind the community’s roads, drainage and utilities, appear on your Lee County tax bill and vary by parcel; Lennar’s figure is for the homes it is selling now. River Hall Country Club dues are separate again. Full breakdown with sources and dates on our costs of ownership page.

Are rentals and pets allowed?

Community documents set leasing minimums and pet guidelines. Review the HOA and club rules before purchasing — the sales office can provide current copies.

Is the community golf cart friendly?

Yes. Golf carts are a common way to reach the course, clubhouse, and amenity campus, subject to community rules.

Visiting & Buying

Tours, model homes, schools, and getting here.

Can I tour without an appointment?

Models are open daily, but we strongly recommend contacting us before you visit. Setting up your tour through our team takes minutes, costs nothing, and locks in your independent buyer representation from first contact — walking in unannounced can forfeit it. Call or text (239) 208-0906.

How close are beaches, airports, and downtown?

Downtown Fort Myers is about 15 minutes, Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) roughly 35 minutes, and Gulf beaches including Fort Myers Beach and Sanibel 45 to 60 minutes.

What schools serve the community?

River Hall Elementary is located inside the master plan, with additional Lee County public schools, charter, and private options nearby in Alva and Fort Myers.
