Lake San Marcos home values - Home values in Lake San Marcos
Surrounded by homes, ducks, geese and swans, the serene waters of Lake San Marcos forms the sparkling centerpiece for the well-established and beautifully-maintained Lake San Marcos community within the city of San Marcos, about eight miles inland from the Pacific Ocean between the coastal cities of Carlsbad and Encinitas.
Formerly a retirement community, today Lake San Marcos is an all-ages community with the exception of The Chateau at Lake San Marcos condo community which is restricted to residents age 55 or better.
An outstanding feature of this community of some 4,000 residents, is the Lake San Marcos Resort and Country Club. The 140-room resort boasts two golf courses, a driving range, chipping and putting areas, and a pro shop. Other resort amenities include four tennis courts, two paddle ball courts, two swimming pools, and spa services. The North golf course at Lake San Marcos Country Club is a Par 71 course with rolling hills and lake views. The South golf course is a challenging Par 58 executive course. Lake San Marcos home owner fees may include access to many Lake San Marcos Resort amenities. Full golf and social memberships to the San Marcos Country Club are also available.
