We have approximately 90 members in good standing with the FLRHA and 60 of those families live either full or part time at the airpark.

The Flying Little River Homeowners' Association (FLRHA)through its non-paid board or directors, voted in by the membership, manages day to day operations and is responsible for the budget of the association. Most of the physical work is also done by volunteers, including road and runway maintence and mowing.
Yes, the airpark was originally platted as five separate subdivisions, each with its own set of covenants to conserve and protect the purpose and quality of the airpark. Currently the FLRHA board is working on harmonizing the differences in the covenances. Each set of restrictions is slightly different, but basically they deal with what is allowed or prohibited in each subdivision, such as building lot setbacks, whether farm animals can be had, maintenance of lots in a tidy fashion. The actual deed restrictions will be available through your realtor when you become interested in a specific property or can be found at the Suwannee County title office in Live Oak.
First of all, this is not what people think of when they think of
Florida, ie. theme parks, and beaches. This is the "Old
Florida", the slower paced, more respectfull, layed back, rural
Florida. Even the county seat, Live Oak, is very much a "hometown"
kind of place where people can still let their children play outside
together, and where the "Christmas On The Square" parade
has the main street lined with lounge chairs to watch friends and
family participate. The topography is one of gently rolling hills
with vegetable, hay, and dairy farms and cultivated pine forests.
Some of our closest neighbors are cows. The people are friendly and
courteous greeting one with "Miss Bonnie" or Mr. Jon, a
very respectfull southern greeting.
The county is full of
natural beauty which is available to all through county and state
parks and is home to a vast system of underground caves and fresh
water springs, a favorite of cave divers. The Suwannee, Santa Fe,
and Itchetucknee Rivers all provide great water experiences of
fishing, swimming, and boating.

Lots on Flying Little River probably average larger than most airparks, giving a very spacious feeling to the park. Although some lots within the airpark are as small as one acre, 4 acres or more is much more typical, depending on the original subdivision platting. Lots outside the airpark, but adjacent to it are restricted by Suwannee County to a minimum of 5 acres for new construction .
There is no requirement to build anything on your lot. When construction is contemplated, Suwannee County codes will apply. Many families have purchased properties years in advance of their plans to build and become residents.
The restrictions vary by subdivision, but generally livestock are allowed as long as your lot doesn't become a "feeder lot operation" and they are properly cared for.
