Your Home Away From Home

For four years, college will be the center of your life. At Beacon, we offer a unique and rewarding apartment-style housing system with one-, two- and three-bedroom options. This allows you to experience much of what it is like to live independently, while still participating in an organized, inclusive, and diverse community. All of our complexes are within walking distance of college buildings and have easy access to Leesburg’s lakefront parks and public bike paths.

The new Jack Jones Oasis opened in between the Villages Apartments and the RAP and PAR residence halls. The extensive renovation has changed the vibe around The Villages Apartments by refurbishing the pool and creating a pavilion complete with a gazebo and fire pit, while also upgrading the Wi-Fi connections on that part of campus. Other updates to the venue, which sits west of North Palmetto Street, include a new enhanced basketball court and new sand volleyball courts.

In addition to the Oasis, each property offers distinctive amenities, such as outdoor gardens, community grills, tennis courts, and bike racks.
