Average Rating for this Community
One of the main concerns is the manner in which Brunswick Forest is marketed. It leads you to believe this is an active adult type development. If anyone is still in the process of finding the right retirement community I strongly suggest: age restricted to 55+ ONLY in a gated community.
I also have the pleasure to work with Brian Galeucia since I selected to build in Brunswick Forest. This has also been a wonderful experience. It is such a please to work with him also. This will also be an on going experience as I work through the building process.
Because of building I will be working with Mark Maxwell. He has been very thorough and a pleasure to start this process.
To sum up my experience:
I'm excited to work through this process with these gentlemen for the next year.
Thank you, from a future resident Brunswick Forest

Thanks Chris!
From picking us up at the airport to giving us Wilmington history and showing us the Mayfair Mall to helping us find the home of our dreams, our 55 Places Partner Agent was the best. They are the real estate salesman that all other agents should be judged by and set the standard that others can only hope to achieve. If I had a way to tell the thousands of other seniors who have the same apprehension about moving to Brunswick Forest, I would tell them to do it sooner rather than later.
Thank you for helping us to find the glorious retirement lifestyle we dreamed about.
All the best,
Chuck and Candace
We have been in the apt. north of Carolina Beach, since June, so we are ready to get our things out of storage and into our new home. Summer was GREAT here, we LOVE Ft. Fisher area! We have met some neighbors around the pond on Talmage Dr., and get over to BF frequently to walk our dog & exercise, use the pool, etc.. Our good friends have moved into their new home in BF on Lillibridge, and they are very happy. When we go over there, we find ourselves just looking up, as TRUSST builds a very pretty home with many details, many of which are toward & ON the ceiling. We are very excited, and are really trying to be patient.
We have met our new next door neighbors and have been out with them socially many times. They will be moving into their home this week - tomorrow, actually. Their home is larger - the "Captiva" Florida style home. Too much house for us to keep clean, but they are happy. Our whole idea for this move was to simplify our lives so we have more time to "play." Brunswick Forest is surely lively. My doctor told me to start taking vitamin supplements to keep up with everyone over in BF! :0 !
Thanks for helping us realize our dream of a new, smaller, home in a fun community! We are sure we made the RIGHT decision!
