Windward Lake Club – Windward Lake Club is situated across 19-acres along the southwest edge of Lake Windward. The club features a world-class tennis center, with twenty lighted hard surface tennis courts, two clay courts, two platform courts, and six ten-years-old and under courts.

Windward Sports ParkThe Windward Sports Park is a gathering place for kids of all ages. The playground, swings, and huge sand box area keep younger kids entertained for hours.

Hear From Our Clients

“We have been fortunate enough to work with Brian through 2 purchases and 3 sold homes over the past 10 years.  When I hear people talk about buying or selling a home, they always talk about the stress it brings. We can honestly say that after 5 transactions, we have never experienced that with Brian. Brian is a professional who loves what he does and takes pride in giving his customer an experience they can’t get with anyone else. You can’t put a dollar figure on what it means to be able to enjoy the process of purchasing a home for your family. I would personally recommend Brian to anyone I know, and the Warner family will never buy or sell a home without the help of our now family friend Brian Henson.”

“I can’t say how much we appreciate Brian in making this sales process move so smoothly.  We were lucky to get an amazing offer above list price and Brian managed all aspects of getting us to closing in a condensed timeline.  We appreciated his insight and timely communication in all aspects of the transaction.  We would highly recommend Brian!”

- Chris & Suzanne F.

“Brian was incredible to work with, we highly recommend him!  We were fortunate to utilize his services on both the home we purchased, and the home we sold.  In an incredibly difficult market for buyers, he was able to help us find our ultimate dream home.  Luckily for us, he found a way for us to preview the home before it was listed so we were able to make the first offer which was ultimately accepted.  When it came time to sell our home, he gave us excellent guidance on how to prep and price the home, which resulted in a quick sale way above asking price.  His professionalism and expertise are unmatched.”

- Brandon & Lindsay L.

“It was truly a pleasure working with Brian. It is very stressful selling your home of many years, with all the memories that are attached to it. Brian’s professionalism and easy demeanor helped relieve that stress. We don’t think of Brian as only our Realtor, we consider him a good friend. Thank you, Brian.”

- Ray & Debbie K.

“Brian made the purchase process enjoyable and entertaining. He had a relaxed yet engaged attitude, and readily took cues as to what we were looking for. Once we were in contract, Brian took a lot of the anxiety out of the next steps. He explained processes and timelines, and readily followed up. Even after we closed, Brian remained in contact with us to recommend workers to help us spruce up our new place. Coming from out of town, we were able to use our time efficiently, which we really appreciated.”

- Anne & Phil B.

- Kurt & Rochelle K.

“Brian is unlike many real estate agents you encounter. He treats you like family and has your best interests in mind. We were immediately drawn to Brian due to his expertise, deep network within the area, professional demeanor and his deeply considerate personality. We told him what we were looking for in our dream house and he understood our vision! Throughout the process, he ensured we were looking at the right things and asking the right questions. Within weeks, Brian found our dream house, negotiated it expertly, and then guided us through the details of closing. We are grateful to Brian for all his help in finding our home and, in the process, we found a friend that’s like family.”
