Riverwood
What it costs, what it charges, and what is for sale — Riverwood in Port Charlotte, Florida.
The short version
Living in Riverwood
Riverwood is Port Charlotte's gated golf community along the Myakka River — a sprawling spread of neighborhoods around Riverwood Golf Club, with an activity center, lap and resort pools, courts, and a dog park inside the gates. Its quiet superpower is the Riverwood Beach Club on Manasota Key: a private slice of Gulf beach for members — access is limited, and listings trade on it. Homes here run from mid-1990s originals to recent builds.
