    "Quiet, Pet friendly. Neighbors are friendly and watch out for each other. There were 2 antagonists but fortunately they sold. The current Board is working hard to meet the requirements for a well maintained community that we can enjoy. Please ignore the previous negative comment. HOA fees are now $244 for the purpose of replenishing reserves that were depleted."

    "This is not a friendly community. Very clickish. There are bullies here and those who spy for the owner then report you. Those who call you a friend one day then stab you in the back the next day to join the newest ‘in crowd’. Do yourself a favor, buy elsewhere. "
