Attended my brother's wedding to my now sister-in-law. Wonderful place, nice and quiet, would definitely try to help out with the network connectivity and establish something for everyone of all ages.

Just a warning to anyone who wishes to visit this place, you are being watched. Some of The residents even have cameras pointing into other residents' windows/doors, etc. Do not drive or walk down certain streets unless you want your privacy to be invaded and if you don't mind being video recorded. If you decide to purchase a home here, one friendly piece of advice - keep your blinds closed.

I have been here since 1953 and still loving it! 👍🏼🙏🏼😇🤭 That was before the streets were paved, and before telephones, televisions, indoor plumbing and running water and US Mail. Electricity was at a minimum. 😳

A peaceful Christian community that has an annual Camp Meeting at the end of July every year. This includes Vacation Bible School for the children, Adult Bible Study and evening Preaching and Worship services. Concerts in an outdoor Tabernacle. It has been an active Christian community since 1860. Quaint cottages with pretty gardens surrounded by woods.
