The Stonebridge Ranch Beach Club is located at 6201 Virginia Parkway. It includes an iconic beach and swim lagoon and overlooks beautiful Stonebridge Lake. This original amenity has been serving up family fun for over 30 years! Every summer, residents enjoy cooling off under the shade trees, hosting parties at the rentable pavilions, building sand castles and playing sand volleyball. The pool is staffed by professional lifeguards during all open hours. Just down the hill, you’ll find our tennis courts.

POOL CALENDARS 

We strive to keep at least one pool open each day during pool season. Each pool is closed one day per week for cleaning. On rainy days when thunder and/or lightening are present, the lifeguards call a thirty-minute safety break and then reassess the situation.

Occasionally following very heavy rains, if the lifeguards can’t see the bottom of the pool due to sand runoff from the beach, we must close the Beach Club to protect swimmer safety. In such cases, we will post the Beach Club closure to the homepage of this website and the official SRCA Facebook group.

HOMEOWNER ACCESS

  • Homeowners and their household members may enter the pool gates (and do so free of charge) if their SRCA account is in good standing. To be in “good standing” means you have an account balance less than $50.
  • To enter the pool gates, Stonebridge Ranch homeowners and each of their household members (ages 3+) must provide proof of residency by presenting a valid form of Stonebridge Ranch Photo ID. (Note that children age 0-13 cannot enter the pool gates without a parent or designated guardian who is at least 18 years of age.)
  • If a property owner wishes to transfer amenity privileges to a tenant, both the landlord and tenant must fill out the Transfer of Privileges Form. The form also requires an annual $100 processing fee. The association does not mediate which party pays the fee, nor do we offer a prorated fee based on when you turn in your form.
  • Homeowners electing to lease their home in accordance with SRCA’s governing documents must complete a Lease Registration Form and submit a non-refundable registration fee of $100 per year for each leased property.  The deadline to register is January 31, 2023, for homes in a current lease or within 30 days after an owner executes a lease agreement for a home not previously registered on or after February 1, 2023. Failure to register and/or submit the required form and fee will result in a $250 fine per month starting February 1, 2023.
  • You can download the form via the link above, request an emailed copy via STONEB@Ciramail.com, or stop by the office (6201 Virginia Parkway, M-F 8:30 AM to 5 PM) to pick one up.
  • Parents need to replace the photo ID card for a growing child about every three years, as the child’s appearance changes. There is no fee for replacing photo IDs for growing children. However, you must provide the documentation noted here each time you replace a child’s photo ID.
  • To replace lost photo ID cards, the association charges a $5 fee. The fee is payable at the office by check or money order. (We do not accept cash or credit cards.)

BRINGING NON-RESIDENT GUESTS

  • On non-holidays during the 2023 season, each household in good standing may bring up to eight (8) guests to either pool. On recognized pool holidays (Memorial Day, July 4th, Stonebridge Ranch Day, and Labor Day), each household may bring up to three (3) guests. Note: the number of guests permitted to the pool is subject to change depending on state-mandated headcount capacities related to COVID-19.
  • Each guest (age 3+) must pay a fee at the pool gates to enter. We accept cash and personal checks. We appreciate exact cash, and we do not make change for bills higher than $20. The cost for ages 3-49 is $5. For seniors age 50+, the cost is $1.
  • Homeowners and tenants who have obtained a Transfer of Privileges may purchase a Guest Punch Card for $15 at the pool gates. When in the presence of a resident, this punch card permits pool admission for five (5) visits. (It may not be used for pavilion rental guest fees or for entry into social events.)

  • Diving is not permitted at either pool.
  • Parents/guardians may not leave young children or children with special needs unsupervised.

LAKE ACCESS

Stonebridge Ranch residents are not permitted to launch their own personal watercraft from the pier. 

You may see watercraft on the lake during non-open pool hours. This is because residents with lakefront property are permitted by their village.
