    "I don’t commute....retired. There are no sidewalks here and our street has a large amount of speeders making walking dangerous. Some neighbors park on the county right of way destroying our water flow/drainage which has caused flooding here. Many homes are unkept even though there is an active hoa."
  • Bob T.

    "Wonderful community, close to Sarasota and all restaurants, cultural activities, etc. The condo development is a designated bird sanctuary. Nice pools, exercise room, community room. Good neighbors. What the development lacks is diversity. "
  • trishmainey1111
    "Osprey Florida is one of the most beautiful, accessible communities in Florida. Ten minutes to the white sands beach and ten minutes to I-75. "
  • Gail L.
    "I work here, belong to the club and have lived in the neighborhood for the last 12 years it is one of 5 golf communities I have belonged to and bar none my favorite due to the people that live here. They are multicultural, down to earth and just fabulous. This is a community that rates above the rest . it is very common for folks to move up and down in house sizes and styles as their lifestyles change. Give me a call as I'd love to show you around. "
