Other communities charge thousands of dollars extra to buy or lease a boat slip. The atmosphere is relaxed, friendly, wooded and peaceful. You can enjoy many different social activities, or not, depepnding on your preferences. Pool, tennis, marina, walking and jogging on site. A great place to live."
