A planned community centered around a public golf course
Roughly 10 miles south of Arroyo Grande, Blacklake is a master-planned community governed by a homeowners association and anchored by a public golf course. “It’s all about the golf,” says San Luis Obispo resident Lindsey Harn, a Realtor with Christie’s International Real Estate Sereno. “People here really embrace that lifestyle.” While the community has been known to attract retirees, area resident Margaret Morris Kelly, a broker and owner at Ocean Breeze Real Estate, says that young families are moving in. She attributes this to the community's "quiet and peaceful” nature, but also says, “It’s more affordable than the Trilogy and the Cypress Ridge golf communities nearby."
Blacklake’s golf community features tree-lined streets and scenic hill views.
Spacious garages line the residential streets throughout the Blacklake community.

Several subdivisions cater to a variety of lifestyles and price points
Most homes throughout Blacklake have Mediterranean-style details like stucco exteriors and clay-tile roofs. The community has several subdivisions, most with single-level or two-story single-family homes built between the mid-1980s and the early 2000s. Morris Kelly says that the one- and two-story homes in the Fairways subdivision, which were built in the ‘90s on smaller lots, are the community's most affordable. Dating to 2008, Villagio's custom and semi-custom homes are the most recently built in Blacklake, and the early 2000s, single-story homes in Legend are exclusively for residents aged 55 and older. Prices for single-family homes in Blacklake depend on floor plan, upgrades and proximity to the golf course, and range from $700,000 to $1.2 million. One section near the golf course is designated for condos that were originally built in the mid-1980s; smaller condos start in the mid $500,000s, while larger units with golf course views can go for over $650,000.
All homes in Blacklake are governed by a homeowners association and have street-facing two- or three-car garages. "One thing that's unique about Blacklake is that the owners have to park in the garages at night,” says Morris Kelly. “It keeps a clean and consistent look in the community, plus it's a deterrent to would-be car thieves.”
