How cold does it get around that area during the wintertime?

  • Usually January and February overnight is in the high 30's to 40's F. We have seen it 28 F overnight but only a few times. It always warms up to at least mid 50's F during the coldest day. See our weather infomation page for more information.

What is the ballpark figure for a single plane hangar and modest home on the lot?

  • It really depends on what you build. I've seen hangers go up for about 20K and homes (if you do a new manufactured) can be had for about 40K. The high end is limitless with the latest homes and hangers being exceptional.

What area activities (golf, tennis, hunting, fishing...) are nearby?

Guide services for both hunting and fishing are available in the area. There are eleven golf courses within a 25 mile radius of the community. Nearby Gainesville has several tennis clubs available.
