Neat place......and though there may not be a lot of places like this it does remind us that there probably are some. It inspires one to do research to see what is available out there in different areas that might fit ones needs or wants.

Nice overview, Liz. Looks like a good choice for you too and maybe Donna.

Good photo tour. Much nicer than the city places where your view is the unit across the air shaft or over a busy highway! And it looks like there is a lot of walking and hiking room. Probably animals and birds, also. And northern Florida is not as hot as southern Florida.

I decided to buy the park model. I stayed an extra day to check it out and really liked it. So now I'll be staying an extra month or so to make the transition.

Right choice.... that looks like a wonderful place to be and I'm going to come up and take a tour within the next week or so depending on what my foot doctor says... I have literally hardly walked on it for 3 days and it feels much better I'm going to continue this I even went to Walmart this morning early and got one of those carts that you can drive around... I don't do very well I drive a 30-foot motorhome better than I drive one of those... anyway I can't wait to see your place and look the whole situation over it sounds like something I might want to do after all I need some place to live....

Hey, it still has wheels, or at least it did at one time...

I love it! I just wish we had a place like that here in Oregon. There are similar 55+ communities but not with all the amenities that place has. And they aren't as pretty.

Congratulations!!!
