"It may be the quietest neighborhood in the area and the quietest subdivision in the Lansing area. Each property also has plenty of yard space so you aren't right on top of your neighbors."

"I love this area! Neighbors know each other. They are willing to help out when you need a lending hand, or let you have your space when you don't. It's nice not to have to lock up everything you own when you leave home, and kids can play in the yard without being fenced in like animals."
