The Retreat was a finalist in the Communities of Excellence contest in the communications division. Association volunteers under the direction of the Communications Committee utilize a bimonthly newsletter, website, bulletin boards, community television channel, town hall meetings, resident directory, email blasts, and open board meetings with published minutes to get information to and from the residents. The newsletter is particularly popular. The website provides information of a business nature, with a resident showcase for display of artwork.

HOA fees in the Retreat run $250.00 a month (as of December 2017). These fees include Basic Cable, Common Areas, Grounds / Plants, Lawn Care, Management Fees, Manager, Recreational Facilities, Reserve Funds and Trash Pickup.
