This family-friendly community is served by Burgess Elementary School and St. James Middle and High schools.

The Lakes community lives up to its name and encompasses multiple bodies of water and homesites with stunning lake views. Further adding to the natural beauty of the area, there are many mature oak trees draped with Spanish moss.

The Lakes was developed in the late 1990s and offers many appealing shared amenities. In addition to the lakes and mature trees, you’ll find a fabulous clubhouse and a resort-style swimming pool. Despite having these private amenities, HOA fees in The Lakes are relatively low. All of these desirable amenities and features make The Lakes real estate very appealing.
