Millsboro Area
We are in NJ and looking for areas to relocate. I saw this thread on this forum and read through some of it regarding over 55 communities, however, I we would like to just move to a new area into a small home or double wide modular/mobile home, that we can afford and have no rules. I have been looking to the Millsboro area and plan a weekend Sept 19. Any input would be apprecaited.

Lonnieg, You might like the community of Angola Bay in Millsboro. Most, if not all communities have rules. I think the small amount in Angola Bay are livable rules. The dues are very low there and they have a pool. The lots are good sized, and it is in a community full of trees. You own your land and dues are about $250 per year.
Maybe a realtor can show you a home in the area with its own parcel.
I'll have to see if I have pictures on file of Angola.( found under Lewes) I do have some of the ( 3) 55+ communities I liked in South Carolina.....
All those cozy rocking chair porches! Nice clubhouses and pools......
When people ask, I like to drag those pictures out. I know people have their likes and dislikes.....
Its a big World out there.

We are going to Millsboro today for the Pow Wow festival. First time ever to a pow wow. Should be interesting.

Hi...
We bought into a very nice mobile home park in High Point Park in the 55 plus section. It is approx 6-7 miles from Dover and approx 40 min to the beach. The park has plenty of trees, a clubhouse and a pool. We have a large doublewide with beautiful landscaping and
bought it at a very reasonable price. There are a few for sale here in the 55plus section and from what I see from the outside they are extremely well-kept homes. Most of the homeowners have been here for years. Yes, it is a land-lease but it balances out in the end. This suits us perfect for retirement and we are very happy with our choice.
I have lived in the OakOrchard/Long Neck area. The area has built up considerably and when I visit there I take the back roads to avoid Rt. 24.
If you have any questions just email or DM me.
Carole
