Welcome to Lake d'Evereux! We residents take pride in our beautiful community by the lake in historic Fairfax County. One can trace the heritage of this area back to the time of George Washington. What is now Lake d'Evereux was adjacent to the Mount Vernon estate that covered a good part of northern Virginia. During the Civil War, this contested area saw the likes of both Confederate and Union forces. It served as basically farmland up to the time when the Washington metropolitan area began to expand to the south.
