Going to the pool - hiking the nature paths - golf cart excursions will be top of list.

What other fun things can we do? Prefer inside the Villages but would be willing to travel outside up to 20 miles.

Thanks in advance.
GatorWorld has a big display of huge gators you drive through to see. They also have a petting zoo which the young ones (and the Grandparents will enjoy). Its located about 1 mile west of I75 on Hw 44, minutes from The Villages. Website is gatorworldparks.com. About 8 miles west of I75 on HW 44 is Wild Bills Airboat Rides. Also about 1 hour away is Homosassa State Park. They have boat rides to the Wildlife Park/Zoo. Just google these. We have been to all of these with our Grandkids and they loved it.
