Life at West Shores
West Shores puts the water at the center of everyday life. Enjoy an afternoon boat ride, spend time along the sandy shoreline, or gather at home overlooking the lake. A marina with fuel pumps, a recreational island, and nearby walking and park amenities add to the setting. Buyers can explore waterfront homes or consider the off-lake villas, which offer a different outlook near the community’s wetlands. With access to the Omaha region, West Shores offers several ways to make lake living part of a primary residence.
West Shores is a private residential lake community in Waterloo, Douglas County, Nebraska. Its official website describes a 206-acre sand-bottom lake within a 640-acre development, with waterfront residential lots and off-lake villa lots. Listed amenities include a marina with fuel pumps, a recreational island, a children’s park, and a walking trail. The HOA and SID No. 453 have separate responsibilities.
