1. How many lakes are there?
   A.  Three east-west facing lakes.  All are interconnected with a series of cuts, or channels, allowing boats to move from one lake to another.
2. How many boats are allowed on a lake at a time?
   A.  One boat per lake at  any one time.
3. What are the lake dimensions?
   A. Each lake is approximately 2300 ft. in length with an average width of 75-125 ft.  The second, or middle lake is slightly wider to accommodate a ski jump ramp.  Each lake has a set of two turn islands – one at each end of the lake.
4. Where does the water for the lakes come from?
   A.  The design of the lakes allows for capture of rainwater runoff from homeowner lots and surrounding fields.  When needed, there is a supplemental well from which water is pumped to keep the lakes at optimum level, year round.
5. Why is the water so blue?
   A.  A few times per year the homeowners association will place a colored dye in the water.  Not only does it improve the appearance of the lakes, but shading the water is an effective tool in reducing evaporation and inhibiting algae growth.
6. Are the lakes open to the public?
   A. No.  The lakes are privately owned and managed by the Homeowners Association and are only usable by lake access lot and homeowners.  Only lake access lot and homeowners and their guests are allowed to use the lakes and facilities.

Failure to have such will result in removal of such watercraft from the lakes.
3. Can the lakes be reserved for exclusive use by a homeowner?
