Gunstock Acres

[mcdude]

Retirement is right around the corner. (YIPPEE!) We're starting to think about our retirement home (last stop before the nursing home ) that has one level living. I've seen several appealing fixer-uppers (the fixing-up will be my retirement "hobby") in Gunstock Acres. I know there is an association beach down on the big lake near Samoset condos that cost $75 yearly to access for association members. Looks nice in the pics. I know that most of the roads in the "the Acres" are town-owned as there have been articles in the Sun lately about which ones will be receiving attention in the near future. I also know there is a community water system.

What are association dues yearly? What amenities are included? Is there a separate fee to be on the water system and wondering how reliable the system is? (water pressure?) What is the board of directors like? Is it a welcoming place? How well are the roads maintained in winter?

What are the downsides? (if any)
