Same boat as you. The HOA maintains a pathway in a wetlands reserve right behind the residential area and it costs less than $20/mo.

They don't really care what you do besides the following: no farm animals/chickens, no structural changes to the homes without a licensed contractor performing the construction, shoot an email to the HOA if you're going to replace your roof or repaint your house to keep SOME level of uniformity.

Mostly they don't care. Hell, the CC&R's and HOA incorporation docs literally say they won't directly enforce things against you and leave it up to the neighbors to take you to court with the HOA docs/agreements as free ammo. So if you explicitly want to be a menace to your neighbors/piss people off or want to have the only bright ass neon pink home with custom additions in the entire neighborhood - probably not the place for you. Otherwise they've had no effect on myself or my neighbors whatsoever and the wetlands/park is really nice.
