Welcome Home

world of sprawl. We take pride in being a premier neighborhood in the
heart of Dunwoody. On our site, you can review the news and upcoming
events, and voice your suggestions on making the neighborhood an even
better place to call home.

Centrally Located
Ideally located between Dunwoody Club Drive and
Mt. Vernon Road in the heart of Dunwoody, DCFW is withing walking or biking
distance of downtown Dunwoody. Enjoy the historic Cheek-Spruill Farmhouse, the
many local restaurants and shops in the Shops of Dunwoody, or wildlife in the Dunwoody
Nature Center.
Convenient access is avaiable to Perimeter Mall, the Dunwoody
MARTA station, I-285, and GA-400 for those times when you want to leave the oasis
for Atlanta's famous nightlife, shopping, and entertainment.

Community Spirit
DCFW has a strong sense of community, from our annual Newcomers Dinner
to holiday gatherings, from regular block parties to a helping hands committee for
neighbors in need, and from our active community watch program to our responsive community
board.
In 2006, DCFW was recognized as a top "Family Friendly" neighborhood
in Atlanta, and that is certainly still true today. All are welcome, from the largest
families to the smallest, from new families to empty nesters.

Terrific Schools
DCFW is in the Vanderlyn Elementary, Peachtree Middle, and Dunwoody High
school districts. Each of these schools has won multiple awards and are consistently ranked
among the best schools in Georgia.

Rural Environment
The "Forest" in DCFW is an apt description. DCFW is a wooded, rustic
retreat from the bustle of the Atlanta suburbs. Birwatchers will enjoy the bluebirds,
goldfinches, and our resident red-tailed hawks. Don't be surprised if you see a
deer nibbling on your plants one morning.
Large, wide lawns and backyards with trees for climbing are the norm
and through traffic is minimal, allowing everyone to get out into the environment and
enjoy.

Recreation

Swim and Tennis club, play tennis at the Mill Glen Swim and Tennis club, go to the

Library, enjoy the park at Brook Run, or take a walk in the nearby Dunwoody
Nature Center.
Dunwoody offers many soccer, baseball, and basketball leagues and
even boasts an Olympic silver medalist in fencing. Whatever you're interested in,
