In 1989, a native Williamsburg singer/songwriter purchased 33 acres on a waterfront point from The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation for $1.2 million. That sale raised funds for the Foundation, and the decision was made to sell the remaining woodlands between the point and the Foundation Golf Courses. In 1993, a subsidiary of The Foundation developed a gated residential enclave, nestled between Colonial Williamsburg, Route 199, and the Foundation Golf Courses.
