"They could do more maintenance"
"Love this place!! It's a majectic waterfowl and bird watchers paradise! So much solitude in God's perfect creation!!"
"Great little place,not for little kids!"
"Everyone has Southern accents but no one is from the South. Makes no sense but the crabbing in the impound is superb. Just make sure to get up nice and early (sunrise)."
