What's the Place like?

ice skating The land is 20 acres and includes woods, ponds, native prairie, and housing and play areas. 3/4 of our land is preserved in natural and green state. The ponds sometimes freeze hard enough for hockey, and the prairie in bloom is spectacular!

house The homes are 40 privately-owned and complete townhouses ranging in size from 1-3+ bedrooms. Each house has a porch and its kitchen faces common areas to facilitate visiting. Homes were designed to be energy efficient and clustered to preserve greenspace.

kitchen cleaning The common house has a kitchen and dining room for optional shared meals, guest room, laundry facilities, workshop, exercise room, offices, mailboxes and multipurpose space for work and play.

Other structures include a century-old barn, sheds, garages, two play structures and of course picnic tables for get-togethers.
