    Peaceful, well-maintained 55+ community, ideal

    I live in a small, beautiful 55+ community where long-tenured, friendly residents make it easy to get to know neighbors. The grounds and homes are very well maintained - clean, peaceful, with ponds, trails, docks and a clubhouse with gym and pool. Management and staff are attentive, there are lots of regular activities and special events, and affordable lot rent with many services included makes this ideal for fixed-income retirees. I absolutely love it here.
