Diamondhead Resort Community - Hot Springs, Arkansas

More Than Just a Retirement Community…

Long time Diamondhead resident, Mrs. DeeDee Ott, commented on our recent post about all the reasons to retire in Diamondhead... Dee Dee wanted to be sure we knew that Diamondhead was more than just a "retirement community"- and here was some of her comments...

"One of the things that I think is extremely important is that this is a lifestyle community. First of all it’s affordable- and much more economical to live here than it is in Arizona, Florida, or California. Plus, this is not a “retirement community”, this is a full-scale community. We attract young families, particularly young executives that travel and like the idea of keeping their family inside a gated community while they’re on the road all week. We have 3 excellent school systems within this community (with bus service) so we do encourage the workforce and the young families who are looking for a good lifestyle, raising their children. We are much more than a retirement community or resort community- we run the whole gamut, and I think that’s important.

There are so many things that are attractive in Diamondhead- we have so much affordable service here- and part of that is b/c of the retirement community. Because the “gray hairs” come here and they retire early and they think they want to play golf, cards, and chill out, and then they discover, “I still want to work a little bit!” So we have this wonderful group of people who are available to provide services to the community – I tell people all the time, you don’t have to buy a townhouse or a condo in order to have ease of lifestyle… b/c if you come here to buy a home, I could give you a list of people who could mow your yard, paint your house, fix your roof, whatever you want done, at a reasonable rate. There’s so much here that’s available to live a natural, affordable lifestyle…."
