The community offers 5 miles of hiking trails that are off limits to motorized vehicles. An indoor pool and a large living room with a TV and pool table are located inside the Community Center.
Residents also have access to two tennis courts, a baseball field, an outdoor playground, and a basketball court. There are three community docks that offer lake access homes each a dock slip.
