PROD contested by @Jacona: based on finding information in newspapers.com; I've searched for this location in the same place twice and have only brought up real estate ads, real estate listings, auction notices, party announcements, 911 call reports, and two short pieces about an escaped lizard.

The minimal coverage present here indicates that this is a subdivision, and WP:GEOLAND does not extend down to the subdivision level. The real estate ads/listings and the passing mentions in the various reports/announcements don't count towards WP:GNG; and two short pieces about a (large) escaped lizard don't meet that bar themselves. Unless someone has better search terms than I do, I'm not seeing a way to justify notability here. Hog Farm Talk 14:33, 19 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: It appears on USGS maps starting around 1961 [1], which makes sense because it lies on the north shore of Lake Lemon, a body of water which was only created in the 1950s. The creation of the lake created the geographic feature and a reason to live there. It is a populated area, but I'm not seeing any substantive coverage about it.--Milowenthasspoken 17:45, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
