Welcome to Cape Haze Property Owners Association

We like to call ourselves CHPOA.

Our southwest Florida community is made up of friendly neighbors who take pride in Cape Haze and appreciate the shared amenities that make our neighborhood such a special place. Together, we work to preserve and enhance these amenities for everyone to experience—today and for generations to come.

Here we enjoy:
– Private dockage access at Don Pedro Island and the beautiful Gulf beach
– Use of our newly renovated Community Center with screened-in patio
– Participation in periodic social gatherings, special events, and dinners

Cape Haze’s roots trace back to 1951, when brothers William and Alfred Vanderbilt began transforming a largely undeveloped peninsula into the 2-V Ranch. Their vision evolved into a thoughtfully planned waterfront community, featuring mid-century “Sarasota School” architecture, canals, and a strong connection to boating and coastal life. Learn more about Cape Haze. 

Today, our mission is to do that within our power, those things that will maintain or improve the quality of life and property values in Cape Haze.

What’s New in Cape Haze?

Currently, we’re fundraising in the community to revamp our north and south entrances. We need your contribution Cape Hazers. These entrances are important to Cape Haze, and are in need of serious attention – please consider donating. Our goal is to have all funds by March 15, 2026 with work completed by mid-April 2026. The new designs will make a significant impact in so many ways. 

Please consider donating $100 – $300 – $500 – $1000 or more, to help us achieve our goal of $14,000.

Make your check out to CHPOA and don’t forget to write “Entrance” in the notes field. You can drop your donation check in the drop box outside the front door of the Community Center, or mail it to
CHPOA – 180 Spyglass Ally – Placida, FL 33946
