Easy Living
Forget about hectic schedules, deadlines and traffic. Embrace an easy lifestyle where wind sings through the pines and frogs serenade you to sleep. Lake D’Arbonne Country is a terrific location for your vacation home or your permanent home. Land and residences throughout Union Parish are remarkably affordable, taxes are low, and cost of living is truly comfortable. Several upscale residential developments are currently underway. Or choose a secluded spot for your custom retreat. Two general hospitals are right here in the parish, and large medical centers are in nearby Monroe and Ruston. Three state universities are a short drive away, as is the Monroe Regional Airport. Live in the country …be close to city services. Perfect.
