I live in a cove community in Ruskin… I live in a cove community in Ruskin Florida- several years ago I had a travel trailer there- this time I am in my RV and have been here a year and a half and love it- they have done so many upgrades to the park- the lots are spacious- great activities and amenities! You get what you pay for. The staff here are friendly and helpful! I would highly recommend it!

Strawberry Ridge Florida was homey and… Strawberry Ridge Florida was homey and welcoming then, Corporate took down the block white fencing that hid the homes and kept us secluded. The white fence was lined with lovely mature hedges. Then bam! That was all torn out and replaced with black metal prison looking fencing that changes the look and security. Now, SR has the appearance of an old Florida Trailor Park. You can see straight through the fencing with no safety of being hidden. It took months to replace Palms and "some" plants. There were NO operational Gates for even longer. We were and are like sitting ducks. The rent and taxes keep soaring like their other properties. SR has a sweet senior population that now has a Gator and babies to contend with. From 1977 till a few months SR never had a Gator. Two 90+ y/o's live directly on the Gator infested VERY SMALL pond. Sigh. None of these issues have anything to do with kind Office Staff. ALL of this began with the aquisition of SR by Cove Properties.

Lot Rent 1500 a month Camelot East, Sarasota. This business has raised my lot rent to almost 1500 a month. When I expressed concern, I was told they could "raise it for no reason." I want to sell but there are currently 62 properties for sale within Camelot and Camelot East in Sarasota. They are barely selling (within the six months, online estimates show about five or six sold per Zillow & Realtor) I need my money back. I need out. But with 1,500 dollar a month lot rent for basically nothing in return, why would anyone want to buy here? Cove: lower the damn prices. You are pricing seniors out of their homes. So many of us need out. Why are you making it so difficult? Most of the staff is wonderful here, but the person running this place..shouldn't be in any type of customer oriented job.

Wow not buying now Wow. we were all set to look and buy in a cove community somewhere between dunedin and tarpon springs in florida. After reading these reviews, we will look elsewhere. This is so disappointing!!

Pleasant Living I would like to say Cove Communities has really stepped up their game. I moved in Nov/19. Everything was run quite poorly. I am very happy to say in this past year everything has changed for the better. The streets are being plowed now when it snows. The dilapidated Homes have all been repaired over the summer. Now the place is looking as nice as the people that live here. I actually call it Home now. I have gone from thinking I had made a mistake to being proud to live here. Thank you for stepping up.
