Further Details for the condo in the Florida South Central Gulf Coast, Florida, USA

Riverwood & surroundings Riverwood is a gated community, giving you not only privacy and safety, but also an opportunity to view daily an abundance of wildlife. From the balcony of our condo, which overlooks a lake, you can enjoy your coffee in the morning and your glass of whatever in the evening and sit and watch rare birds, turtles and even alligators. All our renters to date have raved about the balcony or the lanai as they call it in Florida. (See Comments) If you just want to swim or sunbathe, Riverwood offers two pools, one on Grande Vista and a junior Olympic pool at the activity center. Both pools have a hot tub, changing rooms, and you won’t have to get up early to get a sun bed. The new activity center also has a fitness center, a library, tennis and croquet, children’s’ play area, plus classes in Tai Chi, water fitness, bridge, and more -----. Riverwood also has walking/cycle paths around the whole area. Interested, then read on there’s much more.
