I spoke to a woman who is on the Homeowners' Association Board. She said that only 10% (12) homes are occupied year round. She said some women who bought hated it in the real winter months, and some love it. It depends on how adventurous you are. I have no problem going to a yoga class, a pottery class, etc. if the roads are safe. Sometimes they do get icy up there, and I won't be able to go anywhere!
I have to give this serious thought. If I make a couple of friends of the 12 people who live there all year, that's enough. I want to do my pottery, yoga, there are writing workshops, I'd like to take singing lessons, there are wonderful seminars at Oneonta College (45 minutes away), etc.
So - it's beautiful and I love the area and the homes. The pool is fabulous.
On the other hand, it's not a community where I can count on making friends,
winters can be bleak, and it's expensive.
I'll know what to do - I'll let it just come to me, after I ask God to help make make the right decision.
Here are some pix of the unit that I really loved best. I hope you can click on them and see the larger ones.

The pics are small, but I think I can make most of it out. What a hard decision you have. Sometimes I'd like to get away from the Houston heat, but my aching bones don't care for the extreme cold.
Let go and let God!
