A couple of years ago (2009) just prior to my first TV lifestyle visit I spent a couple of nights at Terra Vista in Citrus Hills and found their health club to be as advertised, first class in every respect. Then I drove over to TV. I did not find free weights except at the MVP which at that time had only one flat free weight bench. The MVP was not even open when I went over there late Sunday morning. When I finally got in I found it cost an arm and a leg to work out there, too. I felt the TV facilities were inadequate considering the population who could use them. This was verified by the 20 minute limit signs and sign up boards near the cardio equipment for those waiting. 20 minutues is just a warm up as far as I am concerned.
What Terra Vista does not have are all the other facilities, the rec centers, many pools, a large population, a golf cart lifestyle, multiple clubs and activiites, nightly entertainment such as dancing in the squares and so on. What is there is very, very nice, first class and reasonably priced if not a bargain. The problem is it is a small community in a rural area. There is not a whole lot of choice in what to do or with whom to hang out.
I am returning to TV for the month of October. I may run over to Terra Vista again. It is a beautiful development.
