Once again, we are looking forward to yet another exciting development as well as improvements to the car park in front of the Lodge in Acacia Cove Village.

We are upgrading our car park which will increase the number of cars able to park right in front of the Lodge for the convenience of our Residents. An even more exciting development in the pipeline is the construction of five new apartments. The plans for these were in the making for quite some time, and if all goes well we hope to commence construction towards the end of April.
