Living on Golf Course
 
We live on the 5th tee box of Riley and love it. Also the golf carts go by our house all dayl ong. We enjoy the interaction with the golfers and we have some great conversations with them. One problem is that four lawn mowers come to the 5th tee every morning for maintenance purposes. Cutting the lawn at 6:30 sometimes wakes me up, but one gets used to it in a short time. All in all I think we made the right choice and plan to live on the golf course for a ong time to come.

We are on a championship course with the cart path on our side. We gave up an unobstructed (though not waterfront) view of the Chesapeake Bay when we moved here, so our condition(s) were golf and/or water view. We found both in a lovely resale home. Our house is right on the fairway at the corner of the dogleg approach to the green, so golf balls are a potential problem. I've actually heard the house (roof?) hit twice. We've been here exactly a year and have collected 5 balls up against the enclosed lanai or in between us and the neighbors. I believe that is why the previous owners of our house put in acrylic windows rather than glass when they enclosed the lanai. Our new neighbors recently discovered during their roof inspection that their solar tube lens had been cracked by a flying ball. I love watching beautiful sunrises and sunsets, listening to the frogs, and watching pelicans and other birds land on the pond. I am already up when the maintenance carts go by in the early morning, and when the golfers go by, they are respectful of the out of bounds stakes. I can't think of any reason not to live on a golf course if you've found a house you like.

We seriously considered a model home on the 4th hole of Nancy Lopez . Wonderful view,cart path on the far side and lots of pine trees beyond the green. But then came the new addition to Mulberry. The trees are gone replaced by more homes..to bad..
