More than a century ago, Sherwood Forest was founded as a summer retreat. It was a haven where families could spend long, joyful days immersed in nature and enjoy nearly every sport imaginable. Through the decades, Sherwood has evolved from a seasonal retreat into a vibrant, year-round community. The simple cottages of summer have been rebuilt into cherished homes, and its recreational facilities have been expanded and enhanced, all while preserving the timeless charm and natural beauty that a visitor in 1928 so perfectly described:

“When I viewed the seven hills of Sherwood Forest, when I saw the stretches of restful green, the shimmer of the far-reaching waters, the stately forests which Robin Hood and his band would have loved, I realized I had found a refuge from the turmoil of business life and the frenzy of the city.”
