Five months ago it was announced that the Loudoun County Storm Management Program identified Ashburn Lake as one of its top projects to fund in 2023. The State of Virginia has committed a matching grant, bringing the total committed investment to $4.2 million.

What does this mean for Ashburn Village residents? A cleaner, healthier, deeper lake that is fully funded by grants.

***Renovations***

The Steam room is currently closed, we are working on a repair and hope to have a solution soon. We apologize for the inconvenience.

The AVSP Parking lot will be closed to the public for concrete repair Monday, May 1st – Wednesday, May 3rd. There will be handicap parking and 6 drop off/pick up spaces available. Please plan accordingly and if you are able to walk or bike to the facility we recommend that you do.

Thank you for your understanding.

We Have a New Playground

The playground will be primarily used for the Licensed Daycare at AVSP, but will be open to the public Monday-Friday after 6 PM and Saturday and Sunday all day.

Marina

The Marina will open for the season on Saturday, May 6^th. The Marina will be open on Saturday and Sundays from 11am to 5pm. Starting, June 12^th it will also be open Monday to Friday from 1 PM to 7 PM. Please check in at the front desk for a life vest and to sign a waiver.

Year Round Racquet Sports Bubble!

We are actively working on solutions to temporarily cool the tennis bubble while we wait on the air conditioner unit that is delayed. We appreciate everyone’s patience as we work to improve this amenity for our residents and turn it into a year round structure.

Our sports bubble is staying up permanently. Work has begun to install the necessary electrical components and concrete pad prior to the air conditioner unit arriving later this year. The unit was supposed to arrive in time for summer, but we now heard that the manufacturer has a delay in getting the necessary components. This means that we will miss out on the entire summer. We are considering our options and will provide an update on the summer tennis bubble and related programming.

Changes to Checking In

Anyone entering the facility who is not a resident or member scanning in will have to give their information to the front desk attendant. We will no longer be using the QR code for guests to enter the facility. Thank you for understanding.

Membership Photo

Members must have an up-to-date photo on their account to enter the AVSP. If you enter via the express entry with no photo on file, you will be asked to exit and enter through the main lobby entrance. We are working on adding/updating pictures to everyone’s profile, please be patient with us during this process, we appreciate your cooperation.

Feedback Form

We are always striving to elevate your experience, if you have any comments, concerns or suggestions please fill out a form here.
