The 59-acre site promises 6 tennis courts, 2 basketball courts, 3 dual-use football / soccer fields, 4 full-sized baseball / softball fields, and 2 youth baseball fields.

Now, this solidifies the fact that when I have buyers looking for nice homes in an excellent school district that Cobb County is one of the first places I direct them to.
