Two Associations

Glenridge has two homeowners associations. Glenridge HOA of N.C., Inc. is the Master Association, and the townhomes have their own separate sub-association. This website is published by and for the Master Association.

Single Family Homes

The Master Association covers all single-family homes, which fall into two classes. Class II homes pay pool dues and have pool access. Class I homes do not automatically pay pool dues - and do not automatically have access to the pool. Please contact the board if you wish to pay pool dues before the season starts and get access to the pool. Class I homes who do not pay pool dues and do not have access to the pool, may still be invited by other friends/family at the pool.

Townhomes

The townhome sub-association governs the townhomes and owns the community pool. The Master Association leases the pool from the townhome association and runs it for members.
