Lake Pinehurst began with Horse Creek, a small spring-fed stream that cut through an area of Pinehurst that had little habitation other than a small farm in the area now occupied by Lake Point Villas and Aronimink Condominiums.

In 1950, the Pinehurst resort built a small lake that fronted what is now Westlake Point. In 1972, following the Diamondhead Corporation’s purchase of Pinehurst from the Tufts family, the lake was expanded to its present configuration to create an aquifer with which to provide irrigation to the original five Pinehurst golf courses. In 1983, a waterfront owner by the name of Al Bethel spearheaded initial discussions concerning the concept of a property owners association for lake area residents. On November 20, 1984, Bethel, Bud McManus, Mal Owings and Mac Raffo met with interested property owners to review a proposed charter. On March 25, 1985, the first Charter was mailed to Lake Pinehurst Residents with an invitation to the first annual meeting of the Lake Pinehurst Association.

The original charter’s stated purpose is as follows: To encourage, promote, protect, support and enhance the living environment on and surrounding Lake Pinehurst; to provide a coherent voice for the residents of Lake Pinehurst with all units of government and the lake owners; to be aware of all pending legislation and regulations which may effect (sic) the living standards enjoyed by Lake Pinehurst residents and arrive at a consensus on what, if any, course the Association should pursue to accomplish these stated purposes. While wording may change with time, the concept remains sacrosanct – to protect the lake and surrounding environs for the benefit of the Pinehurst Resort and it's members.
