A Dream Fulfilled

Today's blog will be the first in a series of informative articles introducing readers to LakeLand Village "A Residential Golf Community" located in Allyn, Washington. Hopefully you are reading this on the localism link and find it helpful.

LakeLand...A Dream Fulfilled

 

More than 50 years ago, Virgil Anderson acquired his first 160 acres, with a dream of farming and raising cattle. He moved his family to their new home, a log cabin built on the "old farm". Adjoining lands were gradually acquired where he and his two sons went to work striving to preserve that dream which brought him and his family to this wooded land. Together they would reclaim the marshland, restore the lake fed by the creek and underground springs, clean out the tangled underbrush, clear the rotting and fallen timbers until their acres would be a wooded park. Someday, there would even be a full-size lake, a refuge for migrating birds and small animal life.

That someday came in 1965 with the completion of Anderson Lake. The land was platted, roads constructed, covenants were written and prospective homeowners were invited to participate in the realization of a "dream come true."

Construction of the Generation I Golf Course was completed in 1972, followed by the Generation II Golf Course in 1983 and Generation III Golf Course opened for play in the summer of 1997.

LakeLand Village today now has 12 Divisions consisting of gorgeous custom homes, sizeable home sites and carefree condominium living.

Over the past 35 years it has been the goal of the Andersons to continue Virgil's commitment to preserve the natural resources for the benefit of those who wish to enjoy suburban living. And the dream lives on...

What a beautiful community. I hope that everyone who reads this takes time to view all of the Allyn and LakeLand pictures. This quiet little community is amazing!There is a reason that it is called a village. It is definitely worth checking out or making an appointment for a personal tour.-Dinah
