A former State Road, County Road 869 (known locally as Summerlin Road) is a highway connecting Fort Myers Beach and Fort Myers in Lee County, Florida, United States. The southern terminus is located just west of Fort Myers Beach in Iona at an intersection with McGregor Boulevard (County Road 867).

From the southern terminus, Summerlin Road continues eastward, through Fort Myers Beach, where it intersects San Carlos Boulevard (State Road 865). This intersection features a Single-Point Urban Interchange, with Summerlin Road crossing an overpass over the interchange. Summerlin Road then turns northeast, where it intersects with Gladiolus Drive (CR 865). After turning north, Summerlin Road enters Cypress Lake and intersects with Cypress Lake Drive (CR 876), and passing by campus of Edison College, the Barbara Mann Performing Arts Center.

Afterwards, Summerlin Road intersects with College Parkway, which is a highway connecting Fort Myers with Cape Coral. This intersection is currently an at-grade intersection, but the Lee County Department of Transportation is planning on constructing an overpass over the intersection. cite news

Summerlin Road continues north, passing between Whiskey Creek and Pine Manor. Shortly afterwards, it intersects with Boy Scout Drive, which splits off from Summerlin Road to the east. Boy Scout Drive connects to US 41 (S. Cleveland Avenue) and travels into downtown Fort Myers.

Summerlin Road continues north for another mile and enters Fort Myers city limits. It terminates at an intersection with Colonial Boulevard (CR 884), which is a highway connecting Fort Myers with Cape Coral to the west, and Lehigh Acres to the east.
