GBworste managed 55 park ever !! worste managed 55 park ever !!! big corporate cove is a money hungry no regard to the residents ,ran joke but no joke to the older folks who live there,cove bought out this beautiful quiet longterm resedent park 2 years ago and every day they take action force out the poor older folks so they can replace their homes with 80,000 to 120,000 mobile homes !! who the hell wants to pay that much money for a trailor that you have to pay 600 or more a month to lease the land ??? the folks that have lived here are having rent increases,fees and made to pay for cable and internet that they never asked for and we still are yet to have the dreaded yearly inspections that will require these folks to pay for expencsive repairs and when they cant ,cove will force them out by default

GBLot 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.

GBCAUTION Cove acquired a community in Fort Myers. Raised the lot rent $417 a month and then added property taxes, Xfinity, etc that was included in the lot rent for the past 20 years. In turn, driving home values way down. Greed at its finest! Stay away, they have a horrible reputation! 81% bad reviews!

GBWow 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!!

GBStrawberry 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.
