The Summit:
a golfer’s
paradise
G
ary Marple knows an
excellent golf course
when he steps on
one. A golfer for nearly 30
years, Marple finds life at The
Summit—minutes away from
his two favorite courses—just
right for hitting the links.
“I enjoy living within walking
distance to London Downs and
Ivy Hill golf courses,” Marple
said. “It’s convenient and very
easy to access both from here.”
Marple and his wife, Marcia,
also a golfer spending more
time quilting these days, have
been active at both courses.
“Both courses are in good
condition and the senior
memberships are great.”
A retired civil engineer, Marple
plays two to three times a week.
“It’s just a good game.”
Marple said he and his wife
moved to The Summit based
on the positive reviews from
friends and residents.
“The Summit is such a friendly
place. We’ve always heard really
good things and especially with
the new ownership of LifeSpire
of Virginia, we jumped at the
chance to get in here,” he said.
The couple has lived all over the
country. “We love it here. The
Summit offers everything we
need and that’s why we chose to
live here.”
