Important Notice for Property Buyers and Owners:<br><br>The Plantation Board is currently advancing proposals that introduce an entry fee for new buyers and an exit fee for existing homeowners. When combined with a pattern of questionable management and recurring budget shortfalls, this approach relies on a familiar cycle: simply throwing more money at systemic issues rather than tightening fiscal discipline.<br><br>Caveat Emptor: Any localized transfer fee or assessment directly impacts property value, effectively acting as an entry levy for buyers and an exit penalty for sellers.<br><br>Factor these extra costs into your negotiations before buying or selling. Be aware and stay informed!

Went there with my mom for lunch. Wonderful experience. She had the prime rib sandwich. I had the blueberry grilled cheese. The host or manager, im not sure what his role was, we think his name was Mike, made us both feel welcomed and gave us a great series of suggestions on lunch items. Will definitely be returning.

If you like trees, nature, amenities, wrapped in a secure, peaceful environment then this is for you. Just far enough away from downtown, a short jaunt to the hustle and bustle of the villages and 45 minutes to Orlando and airport. We order food and provisions on line and don't feel a need to leave except to visit friends. The immaculate appearance of the community and home value per square foot cannot be equaled. It took a while, and alot of searching but was worth the wait. They clear cut the community next to us and will insert the cookie cutter homes like most other developments. That is our distinction and where our uniqueness and beauty reside. Cheers to you Plantation!
