    "Lived here for 3 years. My 3 neighbors are all very nice, caring people. We are tucked back on a bay of Fountain Lake with woods so it’s quiet. We see eagles and cardinals plus deer and wild turkeys! Love it here."

    "I like all the parks that are less then a mile from my house. My favorite park in my neighborhood is Frank Hall park. Frank Hall park has a play area for kids, a fishing pier, Public water access for boaters, and Gazbos that are perfect for a picnic (The humane society is by the park too! highly recommend checking it out if you want a pet.). Right across the street from the park there is a basketball and a pickleball court and the Aquatic Center."
