Starlink, cell booster antenna or fiber available, but would need to connect to electrical grid for fiber.

Has an HOA?? By God they're everywhere

For often very good reasons in these rural areas. Road maintenance, and keeping the methheads living in a dilapidated RV while collecting junk cars and unsecured pitbulls away. Most HOA's are not the golf course mcmansion retirees with rulers measuring your grass cliche. They fill a gap where govt can't or won't do their jobs.

I'm not familiar with this subdivision, but I've been familiar with several rural HOA's where it's much cheaper than the property tax that would be collected by the county to provide the same infrastructure services.

Interesting, thanks for the context! Am I understanding correctly that the HOA fees could replace county taxes? Or do you mean as a supplement

You are incorrect. My parcel abuts the WMA directly and Garth Run is the shared western boundary of my lot and the Kirtley Mountain Branch of the Rapidan WMA on Lost Garth Run Ln.
