Caveat: Windsong Ranch homeowner.
From the very beginning Windsong Ranch seemed like the perfect fit. Tired of the harsh winters up north, the political insanity and missing family we were ready for change. A retirement community? Too one dimensional. Apartment or condo? Limited amenities. Single home ownership? Costly and includes both of the negatives above. Windsong Ranch is different. A new and growing community in the north Dallas area. A mix of young families and retirees. Unique amenities and a variety of planned activities. A brand new, single floor, two bedroom villa was the perfect decision. It accommodates a desire for further downsizing without the isolation of an aged community. Seeing families and young children at play is simply good medicine. The landscaping and green space is wonderful. If youâre a golfer you will be disappointed. There is no on-premise course. Frankly, golfing wasnât on my âmust haveâ list, so it doesnât matter to me. Thereâs plenty of public and membership golf courses nearby. Swimming (including a 5-acre lagoon opening 2019), outdoor activities such as walking, tennis, biking, fishing, and even disc-golf are available at Windsong Ranch.

The only terrible experience was Southgate homes. Unprofessional, and if their sales reps are on vacation there is NO ONE there to help you. They basically expect you to chase them down to give them your money. Also, one of new Southgate builds we toured (that was already purchased) had a very messy construction site. There was materials and trash spread everywhere. If that was my home I wouldnât be pleased, the home should be clutter and trash free. The new owners shouldnât be able to tell what the construction crew had for lunch. *I must add that HIGHLAND homes didnât have that issue, their construction site was free of trash. You can tell that Highland employees take pride in...
   Read moreThis amenity center has so much to offer! The pool is fantastic, the gym is well-equipped, and the community spaces are perfect for gatherings. However, there are a couple of things that could be improved. First, the cafe has been 'coming soon' for ages, and it's a real letdown not to have a convenient place to grab a snack or coffee. Also, the online system for reserving the tennis courts is incredibly frustrating. It's clunky, not user-friendly, and often shows inaccurate availability. If they could fix these two issues, this place...
