EASY ACCESS TO NATURE

When planning the Forest Heights Neighborhood, special emphasis was placed on providing easy access to nature and enough recreational space for people to enjoy the outdoors. As you can learn from reading the Forest Heights Homeowner’s Association’s website, each lot has its own yard with easy access to public common areas and neighborhood parks. Two local parks are Forest Heights Park and Mill Pond Park, the latter which is actually maintained by the Forest Heights Neighborhood Association. In addition, nearly 1/3 of Forest Heights’ total acreage has been set aside as common green space to preserve its beauty.
