When I first moved in in May, you couldn't drive past Desoto and they were not yet even selling lots in McClure.

Don't know if you've been down there yet or not, Vintage, but one issue I foresee is where they have the new golf cart path, that goes to the new tunnels, comes back into McClure and dumps all of the traffic onto Corbin at the gate at CR501 right where the guest and resident car lanes enter and merge into a single lane. That single lane will have to be shared by cars entering and carts all the way to the stop sign at Fenney Way with no golf cart lane on the side. Unless something different is in the plan that is not visible to us yet, this will be a mess and really makes no sense because there is a golf cart lane on the opposite side that goes down towards the gate and the new trail.
there is some danger up there and I doubt they will be changing it, also on Fenney way there is one section where you have to drive out onto the street with your golf car. Still think it's safer than north of 466 on Morse, that is crazy up there. We bought in early May of 2017 and there were less than 30 homes sold at that point, it was hard to envision what it wold be like and am totally amazed at how fast everything went up and now to be selling homes in the Marsh area is unbelievable. I also heard that several of those dilapidated house on Warm Springs have now been sold, anxious to see what goes in there.
