Exploring West Davis

West Davis is an interesting part of Davis to explore. It's home to the West Davis Pond, The Village Homes subdivision, Stonegate Country Club, Arroyo Pool, Aspen Greenbelt, and numerous parks, among other things that I have yet to discover.

The West Davis Pond is a nature preserve flanked on one side by a paved path that's pleasant to bike or walk. You're sure to spot some wildlife; binoculars will allow you an up close view.


The paved path continues across the street from the pond and winds through the Village Homes. To your right, there are vegetable gardens and chicken coops, to your left, the Village Homes. The residents share their outdoor space. The homes, outdoor areas, sidewalks & garages (or lack thereof) were all designed to be energy-efficient. I haven't explored as much as I'd like because I'm usually with our dog & the baby & I'd rather avoid the off-leash dogs playing in the (unfenced) dog park.


Stonegate Country Club is a few blocks away & apparently offers good tennis lessons. Big Sis will probably start group lessons in a few weeks ($7 for 45 min- not a bad deal).

I hope to discover other things in this area as time goes by.
