Nesbit Lakes is a socially active neighborhood
Roswell’s Nesbit Lakes is a highly social community where residents can enjoy everything from a poker club and bunco nights to Fourth of July parades at the neighborhood clubhouse. Many of the area's large homes are built for entertaining, with dining rooms that can seat 12 or more people. The neighborhood is also centrally located in the region just north of Atlanta. “It’s kind of right at the junction of Roswell, Johns Creek and Alpharetta,” says David Johnson, a Roswell city councilman familiar with the area. The convenient location gives it easy access to the cities’ numerous shopping areas and other amenities.
The Nesbit Lakes community is surrounded by lush greenery and spacious homes nestled among the trees.

A lively neighborhood clubhouse and nearby parks
HOA fees help fund the neighborhood's large pool and swim team. The Nesbit Lakes clubhouse also houses a playground, splash pad, fire pits and six tennis courts—some of which can be converted to pickleball courts.
Johnson says Newtown Park in Johns Creek is also popular with residents, many of whom take their children there to play soccer. The park also has other athletic fields, playgrounds, a senior center, a community garden, and a Veterans Memorial Walk. Big Creek Park along Old Alabama Road has many hiking and mountain biking trails. The Alpharetta-Roswell Greenway, a bike trail that extends into both cities, has an entrance at Big Creek Park.

Heavy school traffic in mornings and afternoons
Nearby schools draw heavy traffic during drop-off and pick-up times. “At certain times of the day, traffic can get heavy and it can get hard to get in and out of the neighborhood,” Johnson says. The city will soon install a traffic light at the entrance of the neighborhood on Nesbit Ferry Road to help with the congestion, he adds. Roswell has also partnered with Johns Creek on a plan to build multiuse trails on Nesbit Ferry Road. “That’s a few years away, but there’s a plan out there to really expand the connectivity of that road,” Johnson says. The neighborhood is close to U.S. Route 19, which leads to Atlanta about 25 miles south.
Nesbit Lake’s CAP Index crime score is 2 out of 10, lower than the national average of 4.
