Happy homeowners

The move was supposed to be temporary, Bea Z. laughs. “We were looking for a good school system to put our kids in … that was 23 years ago.” While initially it was the great school system that brought the family to Flat Rock, it was the sense of community and the family-friendly neighborhood of Deerfield Estates that kept them there.

“It’s a community where everyone looks out for each other and has lots of events and activities for children and adults to enjoy,” said Bea. “There is always stuff going on at the clubhouse.” Her family has often used it for grandchildren birthday parties. Her own children, experienced with the benefits that come with owning a manufactured home, are residents of Hartland Meadows about an hour away.

When Bea and her family moved in, the second section of the community hadn’t been developed but now that it has, there are even more for families. “It was great before but now it’s even better,” she said.

“The kids have more activities including a pool and large playscape,” she said and, of course, the great neighbors that make up the community.
