Luxury Waterfront Homes
on Lake Lewisville

Lake Lewisville draws luxury buyers who want space, views, and convenient access to Dallas–Fort Worth. The shoreline runs past Highland Village, The Colony, Little Elm, Oak Point, Shady Shores, Hickory Creek, and Corinth – giving you a wide range of neighborhoods, from gated golf communities to acreage estates.

A master-planned, golf-centric peninsula community with lake views, trails, and two courses at the Golf Clubs at The Tribute. The neighborhood positions luxury homes on a narrow spit of land that’s surrounded by the lake on multiple sides.

Stewart Peninsula sits directly on the lakeshore with parks, trails, and a lakeside golf course. Expect a mix of custom and semi-custom homes, many with water or course outlooks.

A long-established lakeside community on the south shore. You’ll find waterfront and water-view streets plus neighborhood amenities and proximity to shops and schools.

Known for larger lots and a low-density feel on the Oak Point peninsula. Inventory often includes custom homes; residents use nearby public ramps for lake access.

A luxury pocket on the north/northeast side with sizable homes and a neighborhood POA; buyers come here for space and quiet streets near the water.  

Lake Lewisville is a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reservoir. That matters because the Corps sets shoreline rules and issues (or denies) permits for structures on federal land.

• No new private docks/boathouses. The Lewisville Lake office states that new boathouses or docks are not allowed. The only path is to buy a property that already has a permitted boathouse in safe, usable condition. 
• Permits don’t “transfer.” After a sale, the prior permit ends; the Corps may re-issue a new 5-year permit to the new owner after inspection and proof of boat ownership, consistent with Corps policy that shoreline use permits are non-transferable.
  
• Expect setbacks on Corps land. Much of the land below ~535’ elevation is owned by the federal government, which limits private improvements and where you can place structures or drive vehicles.

If a “dock-ready” claim shows up in a listing, verify it against the current Corps position and the property’s actual permit history.

Tip: If you plan to compare lakes region-wide (DFW core), also review the rules on Grapevine, Ray Hubbard, Eagle Mountain, Cedar Creek, and Lake Worth—each lake is governed by a different authority and the permissions differ.

• Golf & trails: Daily-life amenities are a major draw: two Tribute courses, neighborhood parks, and long lakefront trail segments. 
• Marinas & ramps: Access points ring the lake, from Hickory Creek and Shady Shores to Little Elm and The Colony; check ramp availability and seasonal closures as part of due diligence.
• Proximity: Many waterfront streets sit 15–35 miles from major job hubs in North Dallas and Las Colinas, with quick reach to DFW Airport depending on the pocket.

• Waterfront vs. water-view: Waterfront streets can deliver dramatic views but not always private dock rights (see Corps rules).
  
• Orientation & exposure: Wide-open coves can mean more wake and wind; protected inlets are calmer but may have shallower water.
  
• Acreage vs. community amenities: Oak Point and parts of Little Elm skew to larger lots; The Colony offers amenity-rich, master-planned settings.
  
• School zones: Boundaries vary around the lake; confirm current assignments during your offer window.
  
• Improvements in the take area: Any work near the shoreline—paths, landscaping, structures—can trigger reviews by the controlling authority; don’t assume approvals.
  

If docks or shoreline work are a must-have, pair tours with a quick rules consult and document review up front.
