Property Owner: Ken
The people are friendly, friendly, friendly. Everyone is like-minded and hoping to enjoy their remaining years in a beautiful place like Compass Pointe. There are so many things one can do if they wish. Never a dull moment!! Many active (and funny)members of the community. Better for your health to laugh a lot. Or there are peaceful places to just sit, read, take a walk or ride your bike. Harmonious living in a resort-like setting. Life is great here.....don't give it a second thought! You will love it!!!

People have left neighborhoods that they have lived in for a long time to move to a place where neighbors want to get to know them, have fun together, exercise, and live happy lives celebrating their various stages in life. It's great. never dreamed it would be so fantastic. The sun shines almost every day.
