Rating 5 out of 5
"I love the lakes, and love the atmosphere it is a family friendly town for the most part. Something I would like to see change is that the downtown area be made to look like it was in the early 's era where most of the town's history was made. A lot of the new shops are coming in and modernizing things and that is not keeping the persona of the history. The other thing that could change is it could be more college oriented as well because there are a lot of colleges in a short distance from the town."
