Saw the add on The Golf Channel. We decided to look at several areas during a summer trip. Visited Lely Resort in Naples, Terra Vista at Citrus Hills near Hernando, Harbor Hills near TV and a few more in the Palm Beach area. Initially picked Terra Vista at Citrus Hills because of the quality of the homes and ammenities. Our TV sales agent only showed us unfurnished models during our first visit and we were less than impressed with the homes. Visited Terra Vista again the next summer. One night there we went out for a walk and it felt like we were in a ghost town. Not very many lights on in the homes at 8PM. Took another look at TV. Models looked better when decorated and with furniture. 16 months to retirement date.
