Bought a home here in late 2015. Turned into the biggest disappointment of my life. My neighborhood was ridden with drug addicts, m*th cooks, at least two burglars and a family of hoarders who piled up garbage until it spilled over the porch railing. Not to mention the animal welfare concerns, since those inhuman people hoarded 10-12 dogs. IN my opinion, which is based on my experience over 2 years, the FFG Community Club doesn't care about its members. It only cares about collecting the cash (not the trash). They never enforced their own property standards and covenants despite repeated complaints about the hoarding and other neighbors who refused to mow their lawns during the long mowing season. It was like moving the planet for them to get anything done. In essence, it never happened.

Dealing with Daniel Geib, the main property standards inspector, and Bob Weber, the FFG general manager, was a heartbreak. Bob is 100% disingenuous. If you get lip service from him, you're lucky.

The only good thing that I have to say is about Jan in the office. She was always wonderful, upbeat and pleasant to deal with. The one star is for her.

If you can afford the pay-per-use amenities, you might enjoy the community. Otherwise, your HOA fees will subsidize the many golf courses that compete with one another. You won't get anything in return except misery.

As a side note, the small town politics here are unreal. Both newspapers stopped publishing letters to the editor due to the vitriol.
