Orchard House is Valencia's main gathering place and the heart of our resort-style amenities. The clubhouse and its shaded outdoor spaces host resident events, holiday celebrations, and casual meetups with friends. Right next to the clubhouse, the event lawn has room for morning yoga, a game of cornhole, or a family frisbee toss while grown-ups catch up nearby. When it's time to slow down, stretch out in a hammock and savor the sweet side of life at Valencia.
The infinity-edge pool is the centerpiece, with open water views and sun shelves for lounging in the shallows. It's a welcome place to cool off during a long Texas summer. For family cookouts, built-in grills and outdoor dining tables sit right beside the pool. A playground keeps younger kids busy, too. Residents can follow upcoming events and updates around Valencia's vibrant amenities in the Valencia Life app.
