It also depends on whether the homeowner gives you a pass or not. "Guests" can't use any of the amenities without the resident being present. But most homeowners who rent their properties out arrange for their tenants to have temporary resident IDs, which gives them access to all amenities.

If you are getting a temp. resident id then you can play executive golf, any of the sports or activities in any of the rec centers. If you're here just for a couple weeks' vacation, you'll have time to enjoy a pretty good variety of activities. If you're coming with the hope of deciding if The Villages is a good place to retire, you'll need to set aside a couple-three days for checking newer construction and explore some neighborhoods and home styles in the Sumter area and points north as well, hit a few open houses to at least see what these homes look like inside and what options you'd have for your budget.

We came for vacation for a couple of weeks, for a few years before deciding to move here.
