I think On Top of the World is a very nice retirement community. They have swimming pools, (ones that are heated during the winter), golf, a community center just to name some of the activities around. Many people have golf carts to drive around in. Most of the homes have an outlet in the garage to accomodate one. The homes are nice. Nice sized. I don't know about those guards at the gate though. The other problem I see is when people get too old and they can't drive anymore and whatnot that the mailbox and the trash compactor are too far. Most old people can't walk that far and if you don't have a golf cart I guess you have to pay someone to do it for you. Those are the only things I didn't like about the place. Other than that the people seem nice ( a bit nosey for my taste) , the grounds are well kept, there are a lot of activities and its very quiet.

I went here for the chicken wings. They are ok. They aren't real Buffalo Style Wings. They put breading or something on them. That's not a real Buffalo Wing.

I went here for the chicken wings. They are ok. They aren't real Buffalo Style Wings. They put breading or something on them. That's not a real Buffalo Wing.
It was so loud in there I couldn't even talk to the person across from me. I couldn't hear a word they were saying. If you don't know what a real Buffalo Wing is then I guess its ok. Great for Beer and Burgers but I have to say I was really disappointed in those wings.

I think this is the best place to get ice cream on the beach. There are many different flavors to choose from and they are all good. They offer cones, milkshakes, sundaes and softserve. Not to mention this is the cleanest ice cream parlor around that I've ever been to.
I think an older couple owns it. Whoever owns it takes great pride in that store. I'm not hesitant about eating anything in there. The prices are comparable to everyone else around and they aren't as nice, clean and neat as this place. I've never seen such pride taken in an eating establishment. The people that work there are very nice as well. Whenever I look confused on what to get they will offer me a sample.

USA Baby has quality children furniture. Its not your typical particle board furniture. They have different types of furniture made in Italy and Canada and made of excellent quality. The best time to go is when they are having a sale. The furniture can be expensive because its good quality and not junk. I got a really good deal on a Pali crib & 2 dressers. They were having a 50% -70% off sale. It is furniture that will last through out a childs life time. Many of the beds you can take apart and switch from a crib to a toddler bed to full size beds. I'm really pleased with the purchase.
The people in the store are very helpful and knowledgeable about their products. They also carry baby bedding, strollers and other accessories. I did a lot of bargain shopping before I found this store and looked at a lot of junk. This is a great store with excellent product lines.

We booked a place here for our vacation. I don't think it was really worth the money we spent. The place we rented was kind of dumpy. Well it was a 2 bedroom shack moreless. The pictures on the internet are kind of deceiving. I don't know how long ago they took the pictures or where exactly they took them from. The place we stayed as it was overgrown by trees and such so obviously we couldn't see anything. It was ok I guess. When we got there we were pretty disappointed. It was $565 for the week and with taxes and reservation fees it came out to a total of $737.00 + toiletries, soap etc... Need laundry soap to wash your own bath towels. The closest store is in Waynesville. You can go to the local store and pay an arm and a leg for small supplies you need. We could have stayed at a nice B & B. We could have rented a motel room for half the price. I noticed most of the hotels there had views and rocking chairs in the front. Not to mention the hotels have coffee, fresh linens and free continental breakfast. Some are even offering hot breakfast now. If I had to do it all over again I would most certainly just rent a room. For the amount of time you spend in it not to mention the amenities. Most of the places also have swimming pools. Our place was kind of dirty. It didn't look like anyone had cleaned it for quite some time. Spiders and cobb webbs all over the place. In the first 5 minutes we were there I stepped on a piece of glass cutting my heel open. Later on we found more glass through out the place. So I had to walk around with my shoes on. The place came with 2 garbage bags and one roll of toilet paper. We had to change the sheets on the bed because there was hair in it. They looked unwashed. Couldn't sit on anything on the porch. I had to clean that up too. The furniture was old and dirty and it wasn't very comfortable. Either was the bed. The place was really old and just seemed like it needed some work. Like the floors were coming up in the bathroom and there was a ton of mold and mildew. Also there was No view. The trees were overgrown and leaning on the screen and windows so that was the view. We had problems cooking because the pots and pans were so old the teflon was coming off. Nothing like a little teflon with your eggs. Upon check out we had to make sure we cleaned by the list of rules. If you don't read the check out sheet they will slam you with more fees. It's not like the place was nice or anything for them to be that picky. According to the internet it was a lot nicer. Like the trash compactor is 3 miles away at least. All trash has to be taken to the dumpster 3+ miles away or you get a fee. That was a little absurd to make someone drive that far to take out the trash. I don't mind taking out the trash but come on now. If we rented a hotel they would have disposed of it for us. There were all these other ridiculous fees and stuff. So you really have to read the paperwork and follow the check out instructions or you will end up with more fees added to your charge card. We went to the office and someone made a comment and the woman at the counter said that they couldn't tell you if one place was better than another for the same price. So I take it they are aware that some of them aren't very nice but rent them out anyway. That seems a bit unethical to me. We expected it to be a lot better than it was when we got there. If the neighbor decides they want to weedwhack for 3 hours starting at 7am you have to contend with that also. It just wasn't worth the money we spent. I guess there could be worse. There are also many places that are much better. Next time I'm going elsewhere.

The beach is the cleanest that I've ever seen.

They sold out to some condo developers. They are no longer open. It's such a shame. How many more condo's can they possibly build? Pretty soon you wont be able to see any water from the road.
