Looking to score some designer goods at bargain prices? At Ellenton Prime Outlets, just a short fifteen minutes away, you can do just that.

You’ll find designer duds up to 65% off at 130 brand-name outlet stores including Coach, Juicy Couture, Saks Fifth Avenue, Polo Ralph Lauren and much, much more. New outlet stores coming soon include Levi’s, Esprit and LIDS hat store.

The outlets allow leashed dogs in common areas, as well as in certain pet-friendly stores displaying a paw print decal on the window. So grab Fido and go for a stroll!

If you want to make a day trip out of it, head to the outlets in the morning for a few hours of shopping, then head to one of several nearby attractions such as Adventure Island or Busch Gardens. Both are just a 45-minute drive to the north. The Mote Aquarium, just 30 minutes south, is also great fun.

Hi Kate!

I just wanted to say “Thank you” to you and Kara for going above and beyond to keep us in the Yacht Club community. I was completely taken back when I listened to Kara’s message politely asking if there was anything that could be done to keep us at the Yacht Club. I have been fortunate to live in some great apartment communities, but I can certainly say that has never happened to me before! We really do love living here, and I appreciate your steps to keep us as residents. Things with work, and Brandon having to work down in Ft. Myers until a place can be found for him up here, have been really difficult and being able to transfer within the community, and still save financially, as I would have moving elsewhere, really helps relieve some of that stress. We have always had a great experience here, but this is just one more thing that shows how much you all really appreciate your residents.
Thank you so much!

Remember that tonight is Papa John’s Pizza Night at YCHH. Hope to see you there at 5:30pm.

We have put requests in the newsletter time & again…
We have written notes to specific buildings and residents…
We have written lease violation letters to specific residents…

Yet we STILL have a problem with DOG DOO all over the property because pet owner’s are NOT picking up after their dogs. The Yacht Club supplies the DogiPot Stations for disposal and even supplies/pays for the pick-up bags… so why are some of our resident dog owners NOT doing their civic & neighborly duty of picking up after the poop?

Our only option going forward, is to aggressively impose a $25 fine on those residents that are caught violating the Pet Policy. In addition, we will will pay a $50 reward to those residents that supply us proof of such violations.

No one should have to be subject to this unsanitary and disrespectful practice and we will make every effort to ensure that no one is any longer.
