Harris Chain of Lakes
Set amongst the quaint towns of Mount Dora, Eustis, Tavares and Leesburg, is the Harris Chain of Lakes. This chain is a part of the Ocklawaha River Basin and includes Lakes Dora, Beauclair, Carlton, Eustis, Apopka, Harris, Little Harris, Griffin and Yale. All are connected by navigable waterways, with the exception of Lake Yale. It’s the largest chain of lakes in Florida covering over 50,000 acres of fresh water in the Lake County. The chain has become an extremely popular boating destination for many reasons. Here’s a few reasons the Harris chain should be next on your boating destination list!

Mount Dora Boating Center is amazing! Dustin and the staff were friendly, accommodating, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience from the beginning of the process of reserving the boat to getting on the water extremely smooth. My family and I had a great time. If you enjoy boating and being on the water, MDBC is the place to go!
Anthony Ards

Michelle “Shelley” Stepp
Julia and her staff were amazing to work with! They have fantastic rental craft with superior customer service. The ins and outs of our particular boat were throughly explained to us, we were given a map of the Chain of Lakes, and they were waiting for us when we returned to help us dock the boat. They even have complimentary beach carts to use so you don’t have to lug all of your gear to and from the parking lot. Every detail has been thought of by this group, highly recommend!
Elite Veterinary Home Care
Our family rented a pontoon boat this past weekend. The staff could not be more friendly and helpful. The boat was clean, fueled and ready to go. Great weekend thanks to Mount Dora Boating Center.
Scott Leeds
Did an all day Saturday rental of a Starcraft CX 23 pontoon boat and loved it. Excellent service and excellent equipment. Highly recommend renting the tube rental add on as it’s a lot of fun.
