Rural serenity in Milmay
Situated in the heart of the New Jersey Pinelands, Milmay offers a tranquil rural lifestyle just 35 miles from the vibrant attractions of Atlantic City. This community within Buena Vista Township provides a unique blend of seclusion and accessibility. "It's a really rural area, sort of in the middle of more urban centers," says Dan Boddy, Realtor with Century 21 Frick Realty and lifelong resident of the area. "So it's great for people that want a little bit of space and quiet, without having to completely give up urban conveniences." Set among sprawling farmlands and dense forests, Milmay's atmosphere allows for a peaceful retreat from the congestion of city life.
The MIlmay neighborhood intersects at Tuckahoe Road and Broad Street in Southern NJ.
