I've had this map for a while now... however I stopped playing in November due to burning out from plot resetting so much as well as doing a 32 villager cycle. BUT now I am back from hiatus!
Things I love about my map:
A straight path from train station down to the beach.
My villagers all are close together therefore I get to eavesdrop on many of their conversations with each other.
I have my house on my own little (somewhat) island
I have a little private beach that is only accessible by swimming
2 ponds therefore I have plenty of space for PWPS
Retail being close to the docks makes it easy for me to sell things when bug hunting.
Things I wish i had:
Apples as my town fruit... Perfect Apples just look so nice but I tried resetting for what seems like forever to get my ideal map AND apples.
I truly like maps with these rivers, I think they're so nice to put your house on the right of the river & you have room for gardens, etc. right beside the house.
