Lyptus Hardwoods Help Joey Mines Mix Southern Hospitality With Sustainability
Twelve miles outside the town of LaGrange, Georgia, a dense tree canopy and rolling terrain give way to Retreat on West Point Lake. There, set between old growth forests and the quiet lapping of waves on the lakeshore, homeowners in the 479-acre community can find respite from the chaos of life. Retreat dwellers have easy access to an 8-mile shoreline, untouched wildlife and miles of hiking and biking trails. Even the woodsy appearance of the community homes – with their timber, brick and stone exteriors – brings residents back to the natural landscape.
