Yes and no. Tax wise, yes, land worth a lot. But in terms of recreation fun, not really. That facility faced directly west and it was always windy, like crazy windy sometimes. My kids only wanted to go there a few times, they always ended up freezing cold and preferred going to the indoor wave pools.
