The Villages Golf and Country Club San Jose is a great place for animals, domesticated and wild. It is a wonderful place to call home for dogs, cats, horses, as well as wild turkeys, many species of birds, deer, foxes, and coyotes.
For dog owners there are miles of hiking paths where dogs are welcome on leash. There are 450 acres of open space with 10 miles of hiking paths going up to an elevation of 2300 feet. Even the most athletic dogs will get plenty of exercise on these paths. There are also many walking paths within The Villages San Jose residential neighborhoods for a less strenuous stroll. One beautiful path goes through Winery Court in the Hermosa Village. (Right past my new home) Dogs are also allowed on the golf course paths at The Villages San Jose when the golf course hours are over.
The Villages San Jose also has a dog club which meets the first Saturday of every month for socialization (human and canine) and to discuss issues related to dogs in the Villages San Jose.
The Villages San Jose have a one day a month off leash dog park which is great for dogs who want to retrieve balls or play with other dogs.
Horses are also part of the life style at The Villages Golf and County Club. Residents of the Villages San Jose can board their own horses in the equestrian center which features stalls, a covered area and an open paddock. You can also ride your horse on the 10 miles of trails or 450 acres of open space. I don't believe there is any other retirement community in the area where you can have a horse.
In addition to domesticated animals there is an abundance of wild life including deer, wild turkeys, foxes, coyotes, and many species of birds. It is a good idea to obey the leash laws when living at The Villages San Jose in order to keep your dogs safe from the wild animals. I think this is a small price to pay for being in such a gorgeous environment.
There are many reasons to move to The Villages San Jose when you are 55 or older. The wonderful environment for pets and wild animals is just one of them.
Right now there are 11 homes on the market ranging in price from $290,000 to $659,000.
