Review

For four years we lived in this park, and it always stood out as one of the nicest, cleanest, and quietest places around. It's the kind of community that feels tucked away from the chaos, yet still close to everything you might need. The place exudes a sense of calm and reliability that makes it easy to call it home, with every visit reinforcing the feeling that you've found a truly well-kept, peaceful neighborhood.

Maintenance is consistently excellent, and you can tell the park is cared for with pride. The grass is mowed, the grounds look orderly, and there's a general sense that the property is looked after with care. It's not just clean - it's presented in a way that makes you want to keep it that way, contributing to the overall atmosphere of tidiness and quiet.

A big part of the park's appeal comes from its rules, which are clear and strongly enforced. The emphasis on keeping the environment free of parties, junkyards, and unused vehicles helps preserve the serene, residential feel. The park's approach is described as strict but fair, with a focus on cleanliness and quiet, which many residents appreciate as a foundation for comfortable living.

The community here is described as very well maintained and well managed, with residents respecting one another's space and privacy. People tend to keep to themselves, yet there's a sense of mutual respect and consideration that enhances daily life. It feels like a place where personal boundaries are honored, making it easy to enjoy the quiet and feel at ease.

Petite but meaningful details add to the sense of good stewardship: Pete and his brother are noted as super nice people, while Peter and his crew are recognized for taking great care of the property. Their hands-on management and attentive crew contribute to the park's well-kept appearance and reliable upkeep, reinforcing the impression of a well-run community.

Even after hearing that the park might have changed hands, a drive-through confirms that the same level of cleanliness and quiet remains. The impression is that the park continues to function as a well-cared-for, tranquil place to live, maintaining its character and standards despite news of a sale. The consistency in upkeep and quiet living reinforces why so many people remember it fondly.

Overall, this is a great park, very quiet, and very well run. It's a place where residents feel respected and supported, where rules help maintain a clean environment, and where the leadership and staff, especially Pete, his brother, and Peter and his crew, are central to its ongoing success. It's clear from the experiences shared that it's not just a park, but a community that genuinely cares for its residents and preserves a peaceful, orderly way of life.
