I live on a pond in Bonita, and I love it. We had some difficulty at the end of last summer when the pond went dry. It turns out that there were 2 holes in the liner as well as a sink hole (my understanding). As you can imagine there were numerous calls to The Villages office, and it was repaired within a few weeks, and is full and beautiful once again.
I love watching the many different birds, large and small, and the sunsets are wonderful. I have not seen an alligator or snake yet, but I have noticed some turtles making their way to the pond. I know some folks would not choose to be on a pond, but I feel very fortunate to have been able to build on this pond.
