About Gleneagles
Gleneagles is located on the east side of Lexington, Kentucky in a rapidly growing part of the city. Interstate 75 and the Hamburg shopping area are close by, giving our residents quick access to many conveniences.
Gleneagles is a deed restricted community, meaning that we have covenants, codes and restrictions that must be followed. Our residents pay annual assessments which are used to grow and maintain our neighborhood.
Gleneagles is also know for its Greenway space. The Greenways are corridors of protected open space managed for conservation and recreation purposes. Greenways often follow natural land or water features and link nature reserves, parks, and cultural features with each other and with populated areas. Some of our Greenways have been designed with walking trails. We currently have two Greenways with trails. Each are located on Polo Club Blvd and are indicated with signs. One is near Shaker Run and the other is near the end of Gleneagles near Birkdale Dr and Royal Troon. The Royal Troon walking trail connects to the Brighton East Rail Trail. Rail Trails are trails made from abandoned railroad corridors. For more information on Greenway spaces or Rail Trails, please visit www.kyrailtrail.org.
Our board of directors is made up of residents that are elected at each annual meeting. The board meets monthly to discuss issues and make decisions about our neighborhood, including how best to spend our assessments. Gleneagles residents are encouraged to attend both the annual meeting and the public forum of each monthly board meeting. For more information about the board and meetings, visit the Contact and Events sections of our site.
In addition to the information you can find here, Gleneagles also has a Facebook page with up-to-date information for all neighbors! Just click on the logo at the top right of the page

National Weather Service forecasters are predicting that central Kentucky will feel the effects of Tropical Storm Cindy with periods of heavy rain, beginning Thursday morning and continuing through Saturday.
“The biggest threat to Lexington is the continued rainfall over several days,” said Tim Brandewie, Operations Manager for Lexington Emergency Management. “Low lying areas and roadways that usually flood will likely flood as what’s left of the tropical storm makes its way through the Bluegrass. The National Weather Service predicts as much as four inches of rain will fall by Saturday night.”
Here’s what you can do now to be prepared for a heavy rain event:
- Make sure gutters and downspouts are clean and free of debris. Make sure water can drain away from your house or business.
- If your basement is prone to flooding, move furniture or belongings to a higher level, or put them on blocks or shelving above floor level.
- Check your neighborhood street drains to make sure they’re open and clear.
If your street, driveway or parking lot has flooded before, look now for an alternative parking area on higher ground. Move your car before flooding occurs.
Before the storm hits, take time out to check the following:
Be Aware – Follow news and weather sources, TV and radio stations, social media accounts and websites. Download and update mobile phone apps to get updates and alerts about changing weather conditions.
Check Your Kit - Make sure your emergency kit is up-to-date and stocked with what you need should you have to relocate due to flooding or other conditions. Food, water and medicines need to be replaced on a regular basis.
Review Your Plan – Your emergency plan should include copies of important papers, phone numbers, a household inventory and an out-of-town contact in case family members become separated from the group. An out-of-town phone number will work more reliably than trying to reach someone in-town. Make sure everyone knows how to text message – A text will go through when a regular phone call won’t.
