Imagine a community so well-designed and full of choices that it’s been named “Community of the Year” for
eight consecutive years! Located in Columbia, South Carolina, Lake Carolina is that
special community and it’s created quite a stir. Lake Carolina is an active, vibrant masterplanned community with a mix of housing types where homeowners at every stage of life find the activities and friendships that add quality to their everyday lives.
There are 32 distinct, private neighborhoods, including an exclusive gated community with private amenities. Sidewalks in every neighborhood connect to biking and jogging paths throughout Lake Carolina. Innovative home designs include lakefront, brick executive and manor homes,
courtyard and patio homes, townhomes, live-work
condominiums and more. The entire community is fiber-optic, providing high-speed, high-quality communications access and digital cable television for all homeowners and businesses.
A unique, pedestrian-friendly Town Center offers shopping, dining,
convenience, health care, and personal services. There’s even a
Farmer’s Market, open May through December, which features home-grown vegetables, juicy strawberries, free range meats, flowers and plants, baked goods, organic produce, farm-fresh eggs and cheese, and
much more.

Lake Carolina hosted more than 100 events in 2007 and more are planned during 2008 and beyond.
The communities’ “Concerts On the Green” series invites adults to enjoy a variety of live music, while
children scamper and play with their friends on the Village Green. There is also a Fall Wine Festival, an Annual Oyster Roast,
the Town Center Block Party Movies on the Green and much, much more.
The master plan includes preservation of natural areas, and the creation of more than 150 acres of open green space for the enjoyment of the residents. Rolling berms along the Lake Carolina Parkway provide an extensive bike and walking trail network.
Currently, the network of trails, bike
paths and sidewalks exceeds 30 miles in
length.

The lake, with over six miles of shoreline, features some of the finest large-mouth bass and bream fishing in the Midlands. Water-skiing, swimming and boating offer even more leisure-time possibilities. Multiple pools and playgrounds are scattered throughout, and Sunset Park is a lakeside picnic area. The
Jeep Rogers Family YMCA at Lake
Carolina offers fitness programs and wholesome activities for seniors, families and children. Day camps, after-school childcare, aquatics, sports, and youth incentive and achievement programs will add to an already great roster of activities.
Lake Carolina’s family-friendly design includes on-site schools. Lake Carolina Elementary School has distinguished itself by
being selected as Palmetto's Finest
in 2007, the top elementary school
designation for excellence in the
state and has earned a South
Carolina Report Card rating of
"excellent" since opening in 2002. Kelly Mill Middle School opened in 2004 and was established as an Integrated Thematic Instructional school, featuring honors and advanced classes. The Achievement Via Individual Determination (AVID) program is considered a model for the region.
