    "Beautiful parks. Nice commercial area walking distance with great shopping and a few really top notch restaurants. The schools are truly stellar and retain that small town feel - one elementary, one middle and one high school. The kids all grow up together. Great community feel with the best services - everyone knows postman and ups drivers on a first name basis. My trash collectors know my dog's name and they give her treats. Safe clean environment on the lake. Truly a gem. "
