Here’s a Spruce Creek Fly-In–specific checklist for new home buyers after closing. It’s a mix of practical homeowner tasks and community-specific must-knows: Home & Utilities
- Set up/transfer utilities (Florida Power & Light, water, sewer, trash, internet/cable).
- Change locks or reprogram door/gate codes.
- Confirm mailing address with USPS (Spruce Creek addresses can be tricky for GPS/delivery).
- Update insurance carrier with your new property details (home, flood if applicable, and aircraft/hangar if you own one).
Community Access & Security
- Register with Spruce Creek Property Owners Association (POA) for official records and dues billing.
- Pick up your community decals/passes for vehicles, aircraft, and golf carts from Security.
- Learn gate access procedures for guests, contractors, and deliveries.
Aviation-Specific
If you own or plan to own an aircraft:
- Register your aircraft and hangar with the POA/Airpark office.
- Review runway/taxiway rules (7FL6 identifier, 4,000-ft runway, weight limits).
- Arrange for fuel service access if needed.
- Join the Spruce Creek Flying Club or connect with neighbors for hangar space if you don’t yet have one.
Country Club & Amenities
- Decide on Spruce Creek Country Club membership (golf, tennis, dining, social). Membership is optional but central to community life.
- Learn golf cart rules—many residents use carts for community travel.
- Familiarize yourself with club amenities: 18-hole golf course, tennis courts, fitness, dining, social calendar.
Rules & Regulations
- Review the POA Covenants & Restrictions: exterior changes, hangar/home use, noise rules, parking restrictions.
- Check for aircraft operational guidelines (run-up areas, quiet hours, lighting rules).
- Be aware of pet and landscaping rules—Spruce Creek enforces them.
Community Life
- Sign up for Spruce Creek POA emails, newsletters, and emergency alerts.
- Introduce yourself to neighbors—this is a tight-knit, aviation-minded community.
- Explore local groups: Ninety-Nines, EAA chapter, sailing, book clubs, etc.
Local Orientation
- Identify closest services: Port Orange shopping, Daytona Beach airport (KDAB), medical offices, and local schools.
- Learn hurricane prep expectations: shutters, hangar safety, and community storm procedures.

AOPA had some very nice things to say about Spruce Creek. Yes, we have been around longer than that. We have been recognized as a premier fly-in airpark community. Surprisingly little has changed in some ways. We are still the same welcoming aviation community close to great beaches and world famous attractions. There have been many updates and upgrades to stay in the forefront of the Florida Space Coast region. Read the Reprint of AOPA article.
