The Village Fun

The Village has a full plate of activities and recreation for the entire family. Some of the country's best mountain bike, hiking and horse trails surround the Village. An afternoon horseback riding is just the answer on a breezy summer's day. Take the reins through some of the most beautiful forested mountains in the country, taking in the scenery overlooking Fontana Lake, the Nantahala National Forest and the Great Smoky Mountain National Park.

The Disc Golf Course, tennis courts, hiking trails, 18 holes of miniature golf at the Hillbilly Putt-Putt and game room are just the start of a beautiful day in the Village. The newly remodeled Recreation Hall is home of the famous Fontana "Floating Dance Floor", which is prized by dancers for its forgiving and comfortable feel. Cloggers and Square Dancers alike come from coast to coast to kick up their heels on this famous dance floor. The hall also hosts a number of events throughout the seasons.

Seasonally scheduled activities add to the special memories of a Fontana vacation.  Activities include campfires, live music, basket and crochet classes, kids arts and crafts, games and relays, softball games, ultimate frisbee, ghost tours, staff hikes, storytelling, yoga, talent shows, karaoke, clogging, and square dancing.
