No natural gas south of 466A but some I understand use propane. We have a gas log fireplace in Illinois and an electric fireplace here in The Villages. We do use the fireplace some early January-February mornings to take the chill off. Actually the electric fireplace can be used without throwing off any heat. Our 55" television sits on top too.

I would recommend the electric over propane. It creates a nice ambience. A nice one can be purchased for about $2,500 retail and less if you catch a sale.
