The Northeast Florida Builders Association’s Sales and Marketing Council recently honored Beacon Lake with two Laurel awards. Beacon Lake, a new master-planned community in northern St. Johns County, received two Laurel Awards, Best Print Ad and Best Logo, honoring marketing excellence.

“We are honored to receive this recognition for Beacon Lake through our marketing and advertising efforts,” said Bruce J. Parker, Managing Director for BBX Capital Real Estate, Beacon Lake’s master developer. “Beacon Lake offers a welcoming neighborhood environment with family-friendly lakefront amenities and coastal-inspired home designs by premier builders. We appreciate the accolades from our industry peers and we hope it will encourage everyone to visit our community and learn more about living at Beacon Lake.”

Beacon Lake showcases eye-catching homes, a lakefront setting with a nautically themed Lake House Amenity and Fitness Center, and a neighborhood with pocket parks and stop-a-whiles for enjoying the community’s natural surroundings.
