Shawn Watson· a year agoSuper nice pools throughout community. Never crowded and great temperature. Clean and well kept community. Lots of birds and gators which are fun to watch.
Shaun Notman· 6 years agoI live in RiverStrand and we use this clubhouse a lot. Zero Entry pool great for myt 2 years old and we rented the clubhouse for a baby shower and my son's birthday party. Price is reasonable, full kitchen (except oven), pool, hot tub, , tennis courts, half basketball court, and plenty of space, chairs, and loungers.
