We relocated from the northeast after a thorough search about 5 years ago. There are an almost an unlimited number of activities and clubs to keep you occupied. I personally golf, cycle and volunteer at Southport Elementary. My favorite convincer is "why wouldn't you want to live where people pay to vacation?".

Great community

Marc M - Verified Resident (Since 2012)

Purchased property a couple of years ago and haven't looked back. Great amenities, quiet community, wonderful people, beautiful beach-front cabana, many activities so you can be as busy or as relaxed as you like. Wouldn't want to live anywhere else.
