About us...
Lake Viking
is a private 630-acre man-made lake with excellent fishing,
lots of wildlife, water sports, boating, skiing, and
swimming. It's a great place to live! Lake Viking is just an
hour northeast of Kansas City (or an hour east of St.
Joseph on U.S. Highway 36, then turn north) on I-35 to Exit
#68.
The entire
community encompasses 2,300 acres of hilly, tree-covered land. The
lake itself is 630 acres of clean, clear water, the center of a
large natural watershed. It is referred to as an "Ozark-type lake,"
surrounded by hills and many natural lake fingers or coves. The lake
ranges to a depth of over 70 feet. There are 19 miles of maintained
shore line, most of which is protected by rock to eliminate erosion.
Lake Viking is
owned entirely by private property owners. There is no
commercial development company. There are approximately
1,800 active lot owners. The market for property is a
traditional market where private owners offer their property
for sale to prospective buyers, with or without the
involvement of real estate brokers.
Water-front homes for sale starting at $250,000 up to
$790,000 and waterfront lots starting at $15,000 up to
$200,000. We have homes off the water starting under
$100,000 and lots starting at less than $1,000.
All property
owners are a part of the Viking Valley
Association and pay membership dues and
assessments based on the number of lots owned.
Dues are set by the Covenants and Restrictions.
Assessments are approved annually by the
membership.
Members in
good standing elect a Board of Directors which establishes
policy and directs the operation of the community.
The
association employs a full time lake manager and staff of
clerical, maintenance and security personnel. Policy is
controlled by existing covenants, restrictions and by-laws.
We welcome your
inquiries. Come visit us any time. We think you'll
agree that Lake Viking is lake living ...the better way!
