"No sidewalks. No common areas outside of clubhouse area. Traffic can be busy at times. Neighbors keep to themselves but are friendly in conversation. Nice golf course with really nice clubhouse. "

"Great area just far enough from the hustle bustle. But it se it is migrating this way. With the mundane strip malls to make every corner in America look the same with no uniqueness. Small town feel is fading and I don’t like that!"
