Acreage is the median of positive lot-size observations below 100 acres coded RES in the research, not a measurement of every home lot. Samples can be incomplete or overlap; do not add them to calculate community totals. Confirm the actual parcel, original permit, additions and recorded map before relying on a date or size.

Evidence: community documented. Development dates, association formation and individual home completion are separate facts. Research updated October 10, 2026.

These assessor samples help compare building eras, but do not establish the first or last home in a subdivision or the permit history of an individual address. 7 additional groups appear in the table below.

The sampled county records include NW SUMMIT LAKE SHORE RD, NW TURKEY RD, TURKEY RD NW and 1 more street names in Unincorporated Thurston County. These are sampled records, not a mapped neighborhood boundary.

Questions to take to a showing

  • Which recorded plat, phase and lot does the address belong to?
  • Are the water view, beach path, dock or road rights recorded for this parcel, or are they simply nearby?
  • Who provides water, sewer, permits and road maintenance at this exact address?
