About Queens Lake
Queens Lake is a neighborhood in the York County part of Williamsburg, set along Queens Creek and bordered by the Colonial Parkway and York County's New Quarter Park. A freshwater lake more than a mile long runs through it, open to boating with electric motors only, and a marina on Queens Creek connects to the York River and the Chesapeake Bay.
Homes were mostly built from the 1950s to the early 1980s, and most sit on lots between two-thirds of an acre and an acre. The Queens Lake Community Association runs the pools, clubhouse, courts, field and marina.
The homes
All 17 homes that closed in the past year were single-family houses. They had a median size of about 2,935 square feet and were built between 1952 and 1999, with a median build year of 1975.
Most lots were between two-thirds of an acre and an acre.

Association membership
The Queens Lake Community Association is a nonprofit and works differently from a typical homeowners association. Properties with deed restrictions must keep a deeded membership and pay annual dues, and that membership transfers when the home is sold. Owners of properties without a deed restriction can choose to join. The marina, pools and lake access carry additional fees beyond the annual dues.
HOA and fees
Queens Lake does not have a typical HOA, so the first question for any home is whether the property is deeded. Deeded properties carry required membership and annual dues, and the membership passes to the next owner at closing.
Recent sales most often reported $48 a month in association dues, and a few reported none. The association can confirm a property's membership status and the current dues.
Annual dues: reported as about $48 a month on most recent sales
Marina, pool and lake access: additional fees set by the association
Deeded memberships transfer with the sale of the home
Recent sales
These figures cover single-family houses that closed between November 2025 and September 2026. The median price was $651,000 at about $227 per square foot, and prices ranged from $518,125 to $1,225,000. With 17 sales in the year, a few higher or lower sales can move the numbers, so use them as a general guide and ask Brandon for sales that match a particular home. Sellers received a median of about 100 percent of the first listed price.
Location and getting around
Queens Lake is about 12 minutes by car from Merchants Square, about 32 minutes from Newport News/Williamsburg International Airport and about an hour from Richmond International Airport. The Colonial Parkway runs alongside the neighborhood, and New Quarter Park is next door. Drive times are estimates from the middle of the neighborhood without traffic.
Schools
Queens Lake is in York County, so public school assignments come from the York County School Division rather than Williamsburg-James City County Public Schools. Check the division's attendance zone lookup for the exact address, and confirm with the division before you rely on it.
Start with the division website: York County School Division.
Questions buyers ask
Is membership in the Queens Lake Community Association required?
It depends on the deed. Deeded properties require membership and annual dues, and the membership transfers with the sale. For other properties, membership is optional. Ask for the deed and the association's current information before you make an offer.
Can I use the lake and the marina?
The lake, marina and pools are run by the association and carry additional fees beyond annual dues. The lake allows electric motors only, and the marina on Queens Creek connects to the York River.
Is Queens Lake in James City County?
No. Queens Lake is in York County, which affects property taxes, school assignment and local services. Brandon's guide to James City County and York County explains the differences.
