Will This be a Gated Community?

The community will offer controlled access off of Orange River Boulevard. The entrance will be the only way in or out of Horse Creek.

What Type of River Access, if any, is Available?

All the residents of Horse Creek will be able to enjoy the river at the Horse Creek River Park. The Park will feature an area to store your kayaks and canoes and there will be a sandy beach launch area to enter the Orange River. There is a boat dock at the Park for our residents, although we do not have a boat lift. There are several public boat access points within a two-mile radius of Horse Creek. Additionally, Horse Creek residents will be able to use the storage and launching facilities of Sweetwater Landing located on SR 32. For more information regarding what Sweetwater Landing has to offer, please call 239-690-2003.

The Park will also have picnic tables and barbecues, a full-size playground, and a putting green

Will There be Homeowner’s Association Dues?

The Homeowners’ Association dues will be less than $100, although a final number is still being determined. The dues will pay for the operation of the gate; maintenance of the lakes, preserves, and other common areas; and the riverside recreational area. Once you close on your home site, you are responsible for paying monthly associations dues. We will begin collecting homeowner association dues October 1, 2005.

Once I select a home site I would like to purchase, what happens next?

Once you have decided on a home site you would like to purchase, you will be asked to sign a Lot Agreement and to put $2,500 down to hold the site. You will be given a set of Homeowner Documents to review and you will have ten days in which to do so. If you are comfortable with the HOA Documents and want to move forward, you will be asked for a second check to bring your deposit to a full 10 percent of the home site purchase price and we will schedule your closing. Typically, we close on home sites within 30-45 days after your right-of-recession period expires. If you decide not to move forward with the purchase during your ten-day right-of-rescission period, you will receive your initial $2,500 deposit back.

When you are ready to move forward with your house plans, you will sit down with your sales person to review floor plans and to discuss upgrades that would be available to you. Ultimately, you will sit down with the builder of your choice to review the floor plan you have selected and to make any final changes to the plan. At that time, you will be asked for a check in the amount of $2,500 to begin the process of drawing your house plans to submit to Lee County for permitting..
