We live on a pond. Love it. We love watching the bird life - the pelicans this winter entertained us for hours. We have fun guessing the social life of the ducks. The water sparkles in the afternoon. Never had a smell in over 5 years. We had one alligator for about 6 months. There are times when the frogs are noisy - thankfully not lately. There are a few times when we have the very tiny insects - I call them gnats. Not sure what they are but usually they are here for less than two weeks a couple times a year. The Villages maintenance folks occasionally put a boat in - not sure what they are doing. We've not had problems with algae.
