Fawn Lake
Amenities include a beach, marina, swimming pools and a private country club
Fawn Lake covers 288 acres and anchors the community as a destination for outdoor recreation. It has seven miles of shoreline, including a sandy beach with Adirondack chairs and a shaded playground. The dock and boat launch area has over 100 slips for homeowners to lease, and residents can enjoy activities like waterskiing, wakeboarding and tubing. Other pastimes range from paddle boarding and kayaking to shoreline fishing, with largemouth bass being the most common catch. Along the waterfront, the Fawn Lake Community Clubhouse features an indoor fitness center and outdoor swimming complex home to the youth Fawn Lake Fliers Swim Team.The Fawn Lake Country Club boasts an 18-hole Arnold Palmer Signature golf course, also known as “Virginia’s Masterpiece.” Other country club amenities include Har-Tru clay tennis courts and two restaurants: the Lakeside Grille and the Harbor Club. The Lakeside Grille offers a casual dining experience with an outdoor patio, while the Harbor Club is an upscale spot serving American classics. “You can get a social membership to eat at the club, and Fawn Lake is a golf cart community,” Lillis says. Sports Park is another popular spot for outdoor recreation, with athletic facilities, a playground and a fenced-in dog park. Residents can also access 12 miles of trails to walk, run or bike through Fawn Lake.
Master-planned community with custom-built estates and new construction
Fawn Lake was developed in several phases and features a mix of custom-built, semi-custom and developer-built spec homes. “When the neighborhood was first designed, it was custom builders only. Those properties were all 3,000 square feet plus and had up to a few acres of land,” Lillis says. “We’re talking anything from Colonial Revival to Georgian and French Chateau.” Larger estates and custom-built homes typically sell for $800,000 to $1.8 million, with lakefront properties being the most expensive. More recent construction includes developer-built spec homes. “Now with Ryan Homes and Atlantic Builders, you’re looking at ranch-style and Craftsman-style homes with smaller lots,” Lillis says. Prices for these smaller properties range from $575,000 to $750,000. Fawn Lake has a mandatory HOA, and residents must pay monthly dues of around $275.Education at Spotsylvania County Public Schools or Fredericksburg Academy
Spotsylvania County Public Schools serve the community. Brock Road Elementary School earns a B from Niche, while Ni River Middle School receives a B-plus. Riverbend High School scores an A-minus, and Niche ranks it the best public high school in Spotsylvania County. High school students can earn college credit through Advanced Placement and dual enrollment courses taught in collaboration with Germanna Community College. Nearby private school options include the A-plus-rated Fredericksburg Academy, serving prekindergarten through 12th grade.Fawn Lake Community Association hosts events and social groups
The Fawn Lake Community Association organizes events throughout the year. Annual festivities include an Easter Egg hunt, Fourth of July celebration and Fall Craft Fair. Residents gather around the lake for friendly competitions such as the Kids Fishing Derby and Cardboard Boat Regatta. Folks can also join special interest groups for sports, crafts and other hobbies. The Fawn Lake Church is a local group that meets each Sunday in the nearby Laurel Hill Chapel, less than 10 miles away.Driving into Fredericksburg for shopping, dining and running errands
Residents typically head into Fredericksburg for shopping, dining and entertainment. The city is about 20 miles from Fawn Lake and has a historic downtown with various shops and restaurants. Locals can browse the shelves at boutiques like Monkee’s before grabbing a seat at cafés such as Agora Downtown Coffee Shop. For an upscale dining experience, Fahrenheit 132 is an elegant steakhouse with exposed brick walls and an emphasis on farm-to-fork ingredients. Carl’s is a go-to spot for dessert, serving up homemade frozen custard for nearly 80 years. Fawn Lake is near several shopping centers along State Route 30. Residents are about 12 miles from Harrison Crossing, which has Home Depot, Giant and fast-casual chains like Starbucks.I-95 connects residents to D.C. and Richmond, and VRE offers rail service
While Fawn Lake feels wonderfully secluded, it's about a 15-mile drive from Interstate 95. “One of the best things about being in this area is that Fredericksburg is between D.C. and Richmond,” Lillis says. Residents are about 70 miles from both cities, and the Fredericksburg Line of the Virginia Railway Express offers weekday service to Northern Virginia and Washington, D.C. Fredericksburg Station is about 20 miles from Fawn Lake and connects commuters to Union Station in just over an hour and a half.
