What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Dover

nothing other than what I have already witten & stated previously in answering the last questions. What else do you want from me??

Central location, close to towns with restaurants and shopping. Enjoy eating at Harvey's, The Farm and Christopher's

I love that there's a community walking trail that goes right through my backyard. I feel very comfortable walking around by myself during the day, and can easily walk to the library or downtown shops.

We have miles of logging trails to walk on. Neighbors are friendly and involved. Very pet friendly and clean.

Everybody that live here is all nice and friendly they help each other out when they need help the store are close by

the house are not huge. We have all lived in this neighborhood for over 30 years so we all know each others habits
