Getting to know Shady Shores

Shady Shores is a Denton County town in the Lewisville Lake area and one of the Lake Cities communities. The town publishes a dedicated explanation of nearby U.S. Army Corps of Engineers property as well as its official municipal map. Those resources are useful because a shoreline setting does not make all nearby land private or establish a homeowner’s lake-use rights.

Check at the address, not the town name

  • Check the official town map for the property’s municipal boundary.
  • For a lake-adjacent lot, verify the Corps property boundary and permitted uses before assuming a fence, dock or access path is allowed.
  • School attendance zones, flood risk, HOA obligations, utilities and property taxes follow the exact address. Use current records: TEA school district locator, FEMA flood maps, county appraisal districts.
