TESTIMONIALS
Seeing Is Believing
“We needed to be a day’s drive from NYC. We kept coming back to Albemarle Plantation, as it offered everything we were looking for: ocean access via Albemarle Sound, marina, and the most beautiful, peaceful location. In our four years here, we stay busy with boating, tennis, golf, bocce, swimming, and numerous Club activities. We have been to more concerts and shows than ever before. Shopping in Hampton Roads area is superb. HOWEVER – the best feature of Albemarle Plantation are its residents. Spend time here and see why we know we made the best choice for our retirement years.”
