Our home has a dedicated, private nature preserve, with 2x walking loops for 1 KM of nature viewing, literally “right next door.” We also border the Gaia’s Macaw Preserve and Nature Sanctuary, so birds and animals are a-plenty. Above our pool, we have 2 tire swings and a bench swing, so the whole family can play close to home, and a 10 minute walk from our home is an adventurous creek-side trail, for the explorers.
