The Village of St. Charles is a neighborhood within The Villages master-planned community in Florida. It does not operate under a traditional homeowners association (HOA). Instead, governance and maintenance are handled through Community Development Districts (CDDs) and a deed-based amenity fee system.
Information on specific HOA fees is unavailable as there is no traditional HOA. Residents pay a monthly amenity fee (approximately $204 per household as of 2026 for new/resale buyers, subject to CPI adjustments) that covers access to recreation facilities, executive golf, pools, and other amenities. CDD assessments for maintenance and bonds appear on property tax bills. Details vary by property; check districtgov.org for specifics.
Deed restrictions and architectural review guidelines apply through the CDD system. Exterior modifications require approval via Architectural Review Committee (ARC) applications. Standards cover landscaping, parking, property maintenance, and community aesthetics. Rental and occupancy rules align with the 55+ age-restricted status. Specific covenants are property-specific; review declarations for the relevant district.
Amenities are provided community-wide through The Villages system, including recreation centers, pools, golf courses, parks, trails, and social facilities funded by the amenity fee. Neighborhood-specific options include the St. Charles Recreation area with pool and bocce. Full list available via districtgov.org or thevillages.com.
Residents enjoy an active, social retirement lifestyle with golf cart accessibility, nightly entertainment at town squares, clubs, fitness options, and low-maintenance living in a planned community setting.
