Bad Investment ? Afraid to buy at Lake Caroline. 0.5 rating By Anonymous ( Mar 01, 2019) I tried to get into the community to meet with the HOA to see what the rules are for building and lake rules. They refused to help me and turned me away. I do not want to drag my relator from DC down here unless I can get general information. Went to Century 21 across the street ...Read More from Lake Caroline and talked with the agent who handles Lake Caroline. She did not know anything or could answer a questions. I was told If I buy a lot or house then the Lake Caroline will fill me in with there rules of the lake and building restrictions. Wow way to scare buyers and drop property values. What's up with all the secrets with this place. Then they said sir this is a gated community. I live in a gated community in Northern VA and they are helpful. Read Less
