Enjoy the greenway with access just a few blocks from the property on 53rd and Wyoming. A three-mile loop around the golf course, great for a walk, jog, or bike ride! The greenway also has branches off the loop that take you to nearby Lion's Head Shopping Center (Target, Trader Joe's, and Anatolia, a fantastic Turkish restaurant), and to Publix (groceries).
