Cascade Lakes
An established 55+ community in West Boynton Beach with 600 single-family homes, a 28,000 sq ft clubhouse, seven Har-Tru tennis courts, and mid-range active-adult pricing—no golf or equity fees.
Most buyers look at this community when they want newer construction with gated security and family-focused amenities. It works best if you value predictability and low-maintenance living. The tradeoff is HOA rules and less flexibility compared to non-HOA neighborhoods.
Cascade Lakes: Established, Mid-Priced 55+ Living in West Boynton
Most buyers look at Cascade Lakes when they want a single-family 55+ home with real amenities in West Boynton, without stepping into luxury-Valencia pricing.
This works best if you're an active-adult buyer who wants a house, a serious tennis program, and a social clubhouse—in the $400Ks to around $700K.
The tradeoff is age of construction. Homes here were built 2000–2002, so condition varies and finishes aren't the newest. If you want current construction, look at the newer Valencias.

Rachel's Perspective
Cascade Lakes is a solid value answer for buyers who want a house, tennis, and a social scene without a seven-figure price. Condition varies with early-2000s homes, so the right listing matters. If it's on your list, I'll pull current homes by condition and price and compare it against Valencia Falls and the newer Valencias so you get the right tradeoff.
