Lovely Lake Dale

Lake Dalecarlia, or “Lake Dale,” is a community-oriented neighborhood with affluent homes and proximity to nearby lakes. Homebuyers will find the community is big on helping one another and being thoughtful. “For the 25 years that I’ve lived here, we have been there for each other and come together when we need each other. All the POA members are volunteers. We give our time because we appreciate our community,” says Lake Dale’s Property Owner’s Association member J.L. “When we get big rains, we fill sandbags and take them to elderly residents. It’s just what we do.”

Luxury living in Lake Dale

Lake Dalecarlia homes are grand and upscale. These are all single-family homes with large private acre lots. It’s a rural area, so houses can be scattered unless it’s within a subdivision. Subdivisions are enhanced with maintained lawns and luscious trees. It’s common for neighbors to take jogs along the sidewalks or walk the dog. Between $500,000 and $1 million, homes are brick custom builds with four bedrooms and a two-car garage. For over $1 million, custom builds are given Mediterranean flair. Homes are enhanced with over 6,000 square feet of space, private cul-de-sacs, and in-ground pools.

Fun on the water and land

Meet up with neighbors and enjoy several lake activities all year round. “We go out on our boats all the time. We go fishing, skiing and tubing in the summer,” says Lake Dalecarlia’s POA member. “Once a month, we take our pontoon boats out, bring some food, and drinks and have a great time.” Lemon Lake County Park was the first park in Lake County, dedicated in 1972. Residents of all ages use the 402 acres to their full advantage. Spend an afternoon competing with the family on the five disc golf courses. Throw some kabobs on the barbeque grills and eat within the picnic areas. Other leisurely activities are the playground and walking trails. Furry children will go crazy running through the off-leash dog park. Fairways Golf Course is a local spot to get into a quick swing for an inexpensive amount.
