The arts and crafts center hosts both formal classes and resident-organized clubs for many different interests, including watercolors, pottery, scrapbooking, holiday crafts, and drawing. Activities vary during the calendar year and depending on the interests of residents.

Fitness and wellness are major parts of the Arlington Ridge lifestyle. Our Spa and Fitness Center hosts a state-of-the-art workout room with both strength-building and cardiovascular equipment, plus a group fitness room for aerobics, cycling and zumba. Other facilities include locker rooms with showers and saunas, spa treatment rooms and an outdoor heated fitness pool.

Arlington Ridge features two tennis courts and two pickleball courts for enthusiasts in both sports. Both are lighted for evening play. A number of organized leagues and groups are open to residents interested in regular competitive play.

Miles of private sidewalks and biking/cart lanes wind throughout the Arlington Ridge community. In addition, county-operated Palatlakaha Environmental and Agricultural (PEAR) Reserve, which adjoins the Arlington Ridge community offers has several miles of biking and walking trails to explore, including a unique “birding” trail.

If you love the water, Arlington Ridge has a pool that is perfect for you. For relaxing and socializing, come lounge at our free-form “resort-style” pool with beach entry. For aerobics, lap swimming, and other “aquacize” activities, visit our heated fitness pool adjacent to the fitness center. And for a muscle-soothing soak after your work-out or just for relaxing, try our over-sized spa with therapy jets.

Our Library is a tucked away gem that offers a very comfortable and quiet environment for bibliophiles to enjoy a day of reading.
