Savanna Trails in Ocean Springs MS was one of the best planned subdivisions I have seen in this business. It sold out almost the entire Phase 1 of the subdivision in a matter of months, but unfortunately, the amenities promised were never put in place, building stagnated, and through a series of unfortunate events – the dream died.
Not to fret though. The property has seen some new vigor as of late and the newer are of the massive undertaking is now called Savanna Pines. From discussions with owners (I have not verified with developer as agents have not called me back), they have been told that the new developer/builder plans on adding those promised amenities in time which would drastically increase the value of existing homes in the area over the coming years.
If you are considering buying in this area, please contact me. There are great deals to be found now in existing homes that are only a couple of years old and new construction homes.

I have been waiting 4 years for these so called amenities. The new neighborhood across the street has street lights, we still do not even have street lights! I would strongly advise not investing in this project, this mistake has put me $40,000 in the hole from what I owe on my 4 year old home!
I moved into this neighborhood 3 years ago and have been disappointed ever since. My family and i have experienced countless acts of bullying, racism, damaged and destroyed property. Anything that was promised to this neighborhood has not been delivered. We finally have street lights on our street but that took 4 years. And the stray dogs have become a problem for mine and the few other decent families living here. First chance my family and i get to move out of this neighborhood we will, but i doubt we will have any luck selling or renting due to my unfriendly and unsanitary neighbors. From the trash cans constantly kept by the road being knocked down letting trash flow throughout the street and the dirty mattresses that lay by the side of the road for weeks. What a wonderful place to live. No wonder I refuse to pay my home owners association fees!
It really is unfortunate that the new developers did not uphold their word either. This post is almost 2 years old and at that time, it seemed that a turnaround was coming. Unfortunately the developers seem to be just as untrustworthy as the previous ones when it comes to upholding their promises.
Thank you for responding Damion and i apologize for the comment i made above. At the moment I was frustrated and did not take a minute to look at to whom or where my comment was being posted. My original comment was aimed towards the contractors of the development and not at a hard working man.
No offense taken and no apology necessary. I too share in your frustration with some of these developers/builders. I have no affiliation with these guys and know that your comments were not directed at me 🙂
