You don't play golf. You don't want to pay for it either. Here are the strongest 55+ communities in Northern Virginia with no golf fees embedded in their cost structure.
The following Northern Virginia 55+ communities have no on-site golf course and no golf-related costs embedded in their HOA structure.
