Welcome to the Carolina Trace Community

Carolina Trace is a community that has three separate entities operating within it. Please read below to direct inquiries to the proper organization:

The Carolina Trace Association (CTA) - You are at the website for CTA. CTA is responsible for the gates, gatehouse and security contractor, landscaping and care of the common areas, and main road (Traceway N and S) inside Carolina Trace. It is a non-profit association whose members are the eighteen independent Property Owner Associations (POAs) within the Carolina Trace community.

Property Owner Associations (POAS) - There are eighteen separate POAs within this community, each with their own deed-restricted covenants, conditions, reservations and restrictions (CCRRs). Click for contact information for each POA.

Carolina Trace Country Club (CTCC) - This is located within the Carolina Trace community, but CTCC is a private, independently owned and operated club.

RESIDENTS are asked to ignore the request for registering at this website. All information is accessible and unlike POA websites, resident registration is not required. Requests will be declined as we cannot disable this part of the website.

NONRESIDENT ACCESS IS THROUGH THE MAIN GATE ONLY: Due to differences in GPS updates and map sources, CTA has discovered that using its formal address doesn't always direct visitors to the main gate.

Please instruct your visitors to enter "NC-87 and Traceway South, Sanford, NC 27332" or "6300 NC-87, Sanford" into their GPS systems, which will always bring visitors in through the NC-87 entrance of Carolina Trace. Instructions for visitor passes can be found here.

Please direct all guests and contractors to this address so their GPS brings them to the main gate only. Those entering Carolina Trace without an e-sticker will be asked to show a valid Driver License *.

GATEHOUSE TELEPHONE NUMBER: 919-499-2339 (Please note that requests for visitor gate passes is now through the Gate Sentry system, please visit https://www.carolinatrace.org/p/Gate-Sentry-Gate-Pass-System for more details.)

If you are unable to get through using the main line listed above, please use this phone number if your need to contact the gatehouse is urgent: 984-270-0701.

* ID CHECK FOR ALL CT VISITORS: The CTA Security & Safety Committee (S&S) has worked with the Gatehouse to enforce the long-standing policy of checking for valid Driver Licenses from those entering through the visitor gate (visitors, contractors/workers, and residents without e-stickers). This policy is in place to protect CT roads and common elements. It is presumed that a person with a valid Driver License also carries a state-required insurance policy for liability. Your understanding and cooperation in advising your visitors of this policy is appreciated.
