Where's a Flower Mounder to weekend, or retire?
Do you get a lots of mailers pitching all the new out-of-town lake/resort communities that have sprung up around our area? We do. We've kinda been thinking about buying a piece of something that we can invest in, to hold on to until we want to build a second home for weekends and possible future retirement, or just as an investment.
Next weekend, we're going to tour The Cliffs at Possum Kingdom. Mostly we're going there now because they're offering Calloway golf clubs just for making the visit. And I could really use new irons. We've been to The Cliffs before a couple of times on our own, but we've never taken the official tour. We stayed in their hotel once (which is OK but not fancy). We've also spent a few hours on PK Lake, which is a real treat.
The Cliffs looks like a really nice neighborhood, but it seems to be developing really slowly, and I wish such a nice neighborhood had more of a little town nearby than not-so-close Graham or way-too-small Mineral Wells. Perhaps we'll be wowed on our visit next weekend.
What about the new communities up on Lake Bridgeport or Amon Carter Lake, to the northwest? Anyone find an ideal weekend retreat east of Dallas?
Ideally, we'd love to invest in something in the Hill Country, since we spend some time down there. But it's really too far away to make it a regular weekend stop.
Where do you Flower Mound folks go for your weekends? Anyone have a weekend home or a favorite nearby weekend resort destination they'd like to mention?

It seems to me that water availability will become a bigger factor in the future. Increasingly I hear about people having dry wells, especially west of Fort Worth. Anyone thinking about building or buying a weekend or retirement place in a remote area should do their homework on the water supply. Methinks it's not a good idea to assume our current drought is a one-time event.
