What Sets Edgewater Apart

Edgewater isn't just a collection of homes—it's a carefully curated lifestyle community where every detail has been thoughtfully designed to enhance how you live. Unlike crowded urban neighborhoods or isolated subdivisions, Edgewater strikes the perfect balance: you have the privacy of your own home, the beauty of nature, and the connection of an engaged community all at once. It's perfect for retirees seeking active living, and families love our resort amenities.

With resort-style amenities typically found at luxury retreats, a championship golf course, pristine lake access, and a thriving social calendar, Edgewater residents enjoy a quality of life that simply isn't available in traditional neighborhoods. And with new construction starting in the high $200s and flexibility in floor plans, luxury lake living is more accessible than you might think.

The sun rises over Fishing Creek Lake, painting the water in shades of pink and gold. On the dock of your Edgewater home, you grip your fishing rod—not because you need to catch dinner, but because this is your moment of peace before the day begins. The lake is glass-smooth, the air is cool, and for a few precious minutes, the world belongs to you.

By 9 AM, you're teeing off on the championship golf course. The fairways are pristine, the greens are fast, and your foursome is made up of neighbors who've become friends. After 18 holes, you grab lunch at the clubhouse, where the conversation flows as easily as the sweet tea.

Afternoon brings choices: a workout at the yoga studio, a kayak session on the lake, or maybe just a good book on your screened porch overlooking the 7th fairway. Your grandkids are visiting next week, and you're already planning which trails to hike, which fish to catch, and which pool games to play.

As the sun sets, you join neighbors for an impromptu gathering at the pavilion. Someone brings a guitar, someone else brings wine, and before you know it, you're laughing about the day's adventures and making plans for tomorrow's pickleball tournament.

This isn't a vacation. This is your life at Edgewater—where every day feels like a gift, where your neighbors become family, and where the only question is: "What should we do next?" Read our complete lake living guide or learn about our golf community to discover more.
