Created in 1982, Lochstead is a peaceful, private, residential community of 70 homes located in East Falmouth, Massachusetts, on Cape Cod. The community includes a swimming beach on beautiful Coonamessett Pond, two areas to launch kayaks and small boats, a salt water swimming pool and hot tub, three clay tennis courts, a basketball court, walking trails, and the Manor House, the center of many of the Association's activities. Once a predominantly weekend and summer community, a majority of Lochstead’s residents, several with young children, now make it their primary home.
Lochstead is located approximately six miles from Falmouth center and Mashpee Commons, both offering excellent restaurants, shopping and services. The Town of Falmouth has wonderful schools, places of worship, theaters, golf courses, libraries, and, of course, 10 beautiful municipal saltwater beaches.

The Manor House, a century-old home that overlooks Coonamessett Pond, is the hub of the community. This beautiful building, which was recently renovated, offers residents a venue for informal events such as cocktail parties, pot-luck dinners, TGIFs, games, book groups, or just to socialize. There is wireless access throughout, a sunny library with books and a flat screened TV, and the business office of the Association. Residents and non-residents can reserve and rent the Manor House for private events, as well as three bedrooms on the second floor, one with a full bathroom and a private enclosed porch , and two others and with a shared full bathroom,
Governance
A seven member Board of Trustees, each member elected to a two-year term by the homeowners, governs Lochstead. The Board of Trustees is responsible for both the fiscal and physical maintenance of Lochstead and its amenities, determines policy, and interprets and applies the by-laws to operational matters in the community. Every July at the Annual Meeting, residents gather to discuss community concerns, vote to approve new board members, and receive a yearly financial report from our accountant.
