Cassie,
Yes, there are fees. I think walk in for a day is a ten dollars.

I really don't know much about it. I know there are no locker rooms.

I know the equipment is full most the time in this season.
novelchick- I so agree! Look at the thread about what people don't like in the Villages. People have been complaining for years.

At my exercise this AM they had to cut off the number of people at 72. People get there 45 minutes early because the room is so full. The instructor took down the names of those turned away...about 26. She is trying for a larger room.
However, my year around neighbors just exercise at home rather than try to get in.
Up North I exercise a ton and it is through Senior Citizens centers which are free and I pay 100 bucks for 3 months for use of a gym and large pool, hot tub and locker room with sauna and showers. Oh do I miss that. Guess where I lose weight !!!
