Lakefront life & local news for The Colony, TX Independent & reader-supported

About The Colony Ledger

An independent local publication covering the stretch of Denton County between Stewart Peninsula and Grandscape.

Our Mission

The Colony Ledger started as a way to give this lakefront town a dedicated local voice. We're a stone's throw from Dallas and Frisco, but The Colony has its own rhythm — 23 miles of Lewisville Lake shoreline, a school district that stretches across county lines, and a retail-and-entertainment district at Grandscape that's redrawing the map of North Texas. We cover the stories that matter to the people who actually live here.

What We Cover

  • Lakefront — Stewart Creek Park, Hidden Cove Park, and life along Lewisville Lake's eastern shoreline.
  • Neighborhoods — The Tribute, Stewart Peninsula, Lake Ridge, and the growth reshaping The Colony.
  • Schools — The Colony High School and the Lewisville ISD campuses serving local families.
  • Happenings — City events, Cinema Nights, Liberty By The Lake, and the community calendar.
  • Eats & Culture — Grandscape's growing dining and entertainment scene.
  • Home Services — Honest, locally-focused guides to contractors and service providers.

Our Desks

Stories on the Ledger carry one of a few local bylines — The Tribute Shores Desk, Stewart Peninsula Desk, and the Five Star Desk (named for The Colony's longtime sports complex on Blair Oaks Drive) — reflecting the different corners of town our contributors cover.
