Hundred year Oak trees positioned in the center of the community near the farmhouse make for some unbelievably beautiful sunsets. If you are touring the home around that time, be sure to take a few minutes to find this spot. We guarantee that you won't leave without snapping a photo or two.

Neighbors walk or drive their golf carts to this field, throw a blanket down and enjoy spirits, food trucks, live music, and good company- together.
