What Are the Best Things to Do in Central Florida?
When it comes to fun and interesting activities, Central Florida certainly knows how to show its residents a good time. Green Key Village’s prime location in Lady Lake, Florida is ideal for all sorts of recreation, providing easy access to what the area has to offer. Here are our top favorite things to do in Central Florida:
- Cocoa Beach. The perfect getaway spot on Florida’s east coast. Central Florida residents are fortunate to have easy access to Cocoa Beach’s breathtaking sunrises, breezy weather, and sea turtle nesting grounds. Enjoy one of the dining spots on the beach or nightlife activities that run from cool jazz clubs to beachside cafes. The Central Florida beaches aren’t the only local attractions. Within a few miles, you’ll find cruise ships, day trips aboard a casino ship, deep-sea fishing boats, and more at Port Canaveral. Kennedy and Cape Canaveral Space Launch Centers are just a few miles to the north. Watch the day or night launches or spend a day visiting the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex. It’s fun and educational!
- Lakeridge Winery & Vineyards. About 25 miles west of downtown Orlando lies Clermont, the home of Lakeridge Winery & Vineyards. It ranks as Florida’s largest premium winery and is a pioneer in the development of premium and sparkling wines. Set on a 127-acre estate amid gently rolling countryside, Lakeridge has spearheaded the production of native muscadine grapes, the foundation of its award-winning wines. Lakeridge wines are sold under the Lakeridge and Lakeridge Reserve brands. Together, these labels have won more than 13,000 awards for excellence in winemaking. More than 160,000 people visit the Winery annually, enjoying complimentary tours seven days a week.
- Harbor Hills Golf Course. Located just a few minutes from Green Key Village, this stunning Lloyd-Clifton-designed par 72-championship golf course was rated 4 stars by Golf Digest. From the scenic elevations to the extra wide mature oak tree-lined fairways, Harbor Hills offers the perfect setting for weekly foursomes, group outings, or tournaments. Five sets of tees provide members and guests of all handicaps a fun and challenging experience. It’s not hard to see why Harbor Hills is the Lady Lake area’s premier championship golf course.
- Leesburg Boat Club. Neighboring Leesburg, FL, is surrounded by water. Lake Harris runs along its southern shorelines, Lake Griffin is to the north, and Lake Denham flows along some of its western borders. Having lakes everywhere naturally means lots of opportunities for boating. The Leesburg Boat Club was first organized in 1947. Well-established and prestigious, this members-only club supports local boat owners while stimulating interest in boating, protecting the local waters, and participating in and sponsoring civic affairs. New members must be sponsored by an existing member.
- Sharon L. Morse Performing Arts Center. Presenting a variety of world-class performing arts and cultural offerings to The Villages and surrounding communities, like Lady Lake, the Sharon L. Morse Performing Arts Center brings Broadway-quality entertainment to Central Florida. In its multi-level theater with the best and latest audio and visual technology, the Sharon seats over 1,000 guests. Performances are varied, offering concerts, comics, dance recitals, musicals, and operas.
