The covenants exist to protect the quality and value of our homes and overall environment of the Ranch Estates. They address a broad range of issues concerning lot clearing, site preparation, home construction, legitimate uses of, and additions or changes to, your lot that impact your neighbors or the golf course. Such things as the addition of a storage shed or any structure(s) or landscape changes, stone walls, patios, firepits, playsets etc., particularly for those lots backing to (or fronting) the golf course, require the submission of an Application for Design Review, ARC review and approval before work begins.
