April Showers came a bit late this Spring


We have experienced a tremendous amount of rain this Spring in Wichita and the Villas at Hampton Lakes is showing us just how much....




These pictures were taken by our own Sharron Dillon, and they show just how high the water is in our beautiful little pond!!

If you zoom in close you can see the tiny little resident fisherman who normally sits about 3 feet up on the bank of the pond.  In the first picture he is completely under water, in the second picture you can just make out the top of his head and in the third picture his face is out of the water.

Everything is green and lush; however, this may be the fullest our residents have ever seen that little pond.

Congratulations!!


Did you know living at the Villas at Hampton Lakes is fun?

Did you know living at the Villas at Hampton Lakes is friendly

Did you know living at the Villas at Hampton Lakes 
can be rewarding?



Linda Houghton knew the first two things were true; she liked living at The Villas so much she recommended it to a friend, and when they signed a new lease and moved in we surprised her 
with a hundred dollar bill!!

Are you a resident of the Villas at Hampton Lakes?

Do you know friends or family that would enjoy 
living here as much as you do?

Make sure they call Sharron Dillon at 316-303-7010 for an appointment today, and remind them...
to tell Sharron you sent them!!  
It is time we let this little "secret" senior residential area get out!!
