Lorraine Lakes
One of LWR's biggest amenity packages, and no golf fee attached.
Lorraine Lakes is one of the newer, larger communities in Lakewood Ranch with a surprisingly robust amenity package for a non-golf neighborhood. D.R. Horton packed in two amenity centers, a massive resort pool, a water-park splash zone, indoor basketball, pickleball, sand volleyball, and more. The homes skew toward families and move-up buyers who want space and resort living without a mandatory golf fee.
