Their monthly rate is quite reasonable. It is a clean, well maintained very quiet park with nicely spaced sites, each with an oversized cement patio. There are full hook-ups, laundry, and wifi that costs money but is excellent. Unfortunately they do not have cable. We get two channels with our antenna, and are at some point going to consider Direct TV because our rig came with a dish.
The pool is a good size and is heated only to 85 which feels slightly cool and I don't over-heat in it. The pool is adjacent to a charming lake with fountains and an assortment of birds and turtles. They offer water aerobics M-F from 10:30-11:30. They have bingo once a week, and other activities that vary month to month.
There is a Walgreens, Publix, Super Walmart, Winn-Dixie, a good health food store Paradise Health & Nutrition, plenty of gas stations and auto stores, lots of restaurants (try The Seafood Shack next year), thrift stores, etc. right in the immediate vicinity. We are right around the corner from a hospital and I saw several urgent care walk-in centers.
There is a bead shop close by that offers beading classes!
There is a charity called Nana's House that runs two thrift shops that support a program that provides housing and all kinds of support for abused and neglected children. I think I could do a little volunteering for them is I was here.
There is an old-fashioned barber shop that only charged Steve $8.00 for a haircut.
The beaches! There are two causeways over the Intercoastal that go right to the Atlantic! We only explored two of them, but we have recommendations for Treasure Beach where Spanish Gallion booty is said to wash up, and Sebastian which has a good beach and has good sites to see.
These are notes mostly for our reference when planning next year, but others may be interested, too!

Sounds like a comfortable place. Better than snowy New England for sure!
Sounds pretty good to me...

Yes, I am looking forward to a return visit. I forgot to mention that this area in Florida is not overdeveloped...it feels like what Florida used to be. We found out that this is due to the way down-sizing of Cape Canaveral and the floor dropping out of the housing market.
