Just get "Villages GPS App" for your phone... Click the Pools tab and then you can click the map view to see exactly where each pool is on a map.

Love that app! Would be lost without it.

The pool at the Willow Tree Rec Center is an adult pool. Short cart ride.

Default Adult pools/mailboxes

There are a number of Villages where you have to travel outside your Village for an adult pool or to even to get your mail. One must due diligence when purchasing a home in The Villages depending what your “wants and needs” happen to fit into your lifestyle. Besides pools and mailboxes it might be how far the house is from an executive golf course, championship/Country Club or a grocery store. To some it might be the church of your choice. Well, you get the idea.

Right! I’m in the Brownwood area and we have 3 sports pools close by and many neighborhood and adult pools within a short cart ride. Very convenient!

I count 12 Community pools north of 466. Wider golf carts and more pools seem to happen as The Villages grew and as the developers found what worked better.


Here is a map of community pools in The Villages.

Little Fuchsia Square shows Sports Pools
Little Orange Squareshows neighborhood pools
Little Green Square shows ...you will see here.

There is no pool in Piedmont. There is no pool in Bell Aire. There is no pool in Glenbrook. But, its just a short golf cart ride to get to one.

what you were told and what is true are not always the same. I was told the Developer paid for the Tornado back in 2006 (?), and that he (Morris), was always watching over us. This was according to the Trolley Narratior...named Walt. Well, I guess he is not paying too much attention to the SINKHOLES. The Alhambra village's Lake has been DRY for over 2 years, and the residents have paid over 200,000.00 dollars and still no fix.
To answer your quesion, Alhambra has NO pools.

Default Pools

I think you’ll find that the larger pools at the regional Rec centers are called “sports pools”. They are designed and scheduled for lap swimming, walking, water aerobics, etc. The sports pools as well as those at the country clubs are adults and residents only pools. The smaller pools at neighborhood Rec centers are almost always “family pools” where children and guests with a Villages ID are welcome.

I don’t know how the pools in the newer southern villages are designated. I’d be surprised if there weren’t some where visiting families and grandchildren were welcome. Remember to get temporary ID cards for your visiting family members and/or guests. They are easily obtained at any regional Rec center.

Polo Ridge doesn't have a pool. Glenview only has the country club pool that you pay for.
