Who We Are

Lake Sherwood Acres  is a "well-kept secret" of 312 homes located between S. Sherwood Forest and Coursey Boulevards.  There are 81 homes built along the shores of a  20 acre lake, as well as 231 homes that are located off the lake.  The neighborhood was developed by Victor Coursey in 1974 when this area was considered far out from down town. Part of the draw for this neighborhood is the 25 meter swimming pool and large clubhouse, as well as the many, well maintained green common areas and private lake.

Sherwood Lake Association Purpose

The Sherwood Lake Association Articles of Incorporation state that the association "is a non-profit corporation organized under the laws of the State of Louisiana, for the purpose of, among other things, owning, preserving, maintaining and regulation for the use of its members the lake shown on the official plat of Lake Sherwood Acres Subdivision..."

Where are we located?

We are located east of  S. Sherwood Forest Boulevard and north of Coursey Boulevard. Click Here for a map of the area and of the actual  neighborhood.

Please be aware that the Lake Sherwood Acres Restrictions and Covenants and  Baton Rouge City Ordinance No. 10669 passed on August 14, 1996, requires all sellers to furnish the buyers of their property a copy of all deed and building restrictions affecting that property. Additionally, all dues must be paid in full prior to the sale of any property and a written “Paid in Full” Invoice must be presented at the closing. Contact the treasurer well in advance of the closing for a copy of the Invoice.


Lake Sherwood Amenities

Sometimes we forget that Lake Sherwood Acres has many amenities that have withstood the deterioration that accompanies many older subdivisions. Our lake and grounds are in excellent shape, and the Club is an active beehive of activity for the summer and throughout the year with frequent use for meetings, complimentary resident functions and rentals.






Move from Lake Sherwood



 Residents and Friends,


It Is with sadness and a heavy heart that I have to send out this notice to you all. This  will be my last communication.

 

Effective at the SLA board meeting this week I have resigned from the board. I will be  moving back to Connecticut where I came from and moving into a retirement  community in Stamford Connecticut on July 28th . 


I have been on the board since 1997 and serving you all (that’s Yankee for y’all 😊) has  been a pleasure.


I will miss the camaraderie and the challenges that came with that service.


I wish you all well and for you to provide whatever assistance you can to the SLA Board


Sincerely.


Don Frattini


SLA Ex- Vice President



Lake Sherwood Acres Subdivision wishes Don Frattini all the best in his move and new life he will be leading in Connecticut.  He has been a devoted Sherwood Lake Association board member since 1997, having served faithfully in various positions through the years.  


We will miss him greatly.

If they reach the lake, they decompose and consume the dissolved oxygen that fish depend upon.
