Why Whippoorwill Lakes

The best of both worlds. Nature and neighborhood.

  • Inside Opelika City Limits

    You get the privacy and space of estate living without sacrificing the utilities, services, and community infrastructure that come with being inside the city.

  • Tranquil Lakes & Nature

    The natural beauty of Alabama is right outside your door. The lakes and surrounding landscape give you a peaceful backdrop that most neighborhoods can’t offer.

  • True Custom Freedom

    Bring your own house plans. This isn’t a development where you pick from three floor plans — you design the home you actually want and build it on land that’s yours.

  • Close-Knit Community

    Whippoorwill Lakes is intentionally small. You’ll know your neighbors. The development was designed for people who want community without density.

  • Expert Builder Partner

    Chattahoochee Homes brings the expertise to take your vision from plans to reality — crafting every detail to your specifications with craftsmanship built to last.

  • Represented by StillWaters
