Facilities at the arbor

The Arbor has an outdoor Pavilion, with fireplace, which is used for community activities such as Happy Hour (1st and 3rd Fridays Memorial Day through Halloween), Chili Cook-Off Contest in October, Crawfish Boil in April or May, and the Lake James Clean-up each Spring. It is located off Anchor Dr., with parking available. There is also a separate building that has a restroom and storage for the Social Committee. The Pavilion is available for private party rentals by Members. Reservations can be made via our Property Management Company (FirstService Residential). 

 The Arbor has 106 Boat Slips, leased from Duke Energy, located at two dock locations on Lake James; one off Anchor Dr. (92 Slips - currently under reconstruction planning, due to Storm Helene in Sep 2024 - diagram here is the prior footprint) and the second location is off Water’s Edge Dr. (14 Slips). These Boat Slips are individually deeded to Property Owners, who are obligated to pay an Annual Fee, established by The Arbor’s Board, to cover maintenance, repairs, electricity, reserve funds, and the annual leasing fees charged by Duke. Sale and/or annual rental of these Boat Slips is only permitted between Property Owners within The Arbor. 

 The Arbor has a fenced in, surveilled, gated boat storage facility, located at 144 Waters Edge Dr., for 90 boat trailers and boats. An application needs to be on file with a description of specific property with our Property Management Company (FirstService Residential). An annual fee, established by The Arbor's Board, is charged for each space rented by a Property Owner. A waitlist has started and rules are being established for 2025.
