Walking Trails

In April 1990, the Rocky Glen Nature Trail was opened.  It is approximately 1/2 mile long, winding through a nine acre plot.  The access is located on Ash Road and is marked with a sign.  There are over 80 identified species of native flora along the trail.  There are benches and bridges to make the walk easy as well as pleasurable.  

The Brook 'n Dale Trail was opened at the end of Pine Road  on the North side of the lake.  It too contains a multitude of native flora, benches and bridges.

The Lake:

Fishing and Boating 

Lake Louisa is a man made lake with approximately five miles of shoreline.  Residents enjoy fishing, water skiing, tubing, swimming and boating. 
The lake is plenty in bass, carp, catfish, perch.  A fishing license is required while fishing in a boat or on the shoreline. 
Blue Ridge Shores is dedicated to boating safety.  We have restrictions concerning boat size, horsepower, wake and no-wake zones, traffic patterns, etc.  Due to the size of the lake and for the safety of our residents and their families, no jet-ski's are permitted on the lake.
All motorized and non-motorized boats must be registered with the Blue Ridge Shores Office.  To register a motorized boat, please provide a copy of the state registration, proof of insurance, and proof of completion of boater safety course.  We must have current documentation on file to issue or renew boat decals annually.  There is also an annual boat registration fee for all motorized boats based on horsepower.  Non-motorized boats, such as a kayak, canoe, paddleboats, john boats powered by electric motor, etc.  must be registered as well and have a one-time registration as well.  
For specific lake and boating restrictions consult our Bylaws.
