Cresswind at PGA Village Verano
The 55+ Enclave Inside an All-Ages Golf Community

A 249-home, 55+ pocket within the larger all-ages PGA Village Verano. Kolter built it for buyers who want age-restricted neighbors and a dedicated pool, while still tapping into Verano's elite Club Talavera amenities. The catch: you inherit Verano's full fee stack.

Cresswind at PGA Village Verano solves a specific problem: PGA Village Verano is an all-ages community, and some 55+ buyers want age-restricted neighbors. Cresswind is the answer — a gated, 249-home enclave inside Verano with its own swimming pool, reserved for active adults 55 and over. You get the smaller, age-restricted feel plus full access to Verano's ~40,000 sq ft Club Talavera. But you also inherit Verano's layered cost structure: HOA, the mandatory Talavera membership, and a CDD.

Cresswind vs the Rest of Verano

The age restriction is the whole point. The broader PGA Village Verano welcomes buyers of all ages. Cresswind is the 55+ section — if living among other active adults matters to you, this is how you get it without leaving the Verano amenity ecosystem.

Your own pool, shared everything else. Cresswind has a dedicated pool separate from Verano's main facilities, but you still access Club Talavera, the 27-court pickleball center, and the fitness centers.

Same fee stack applies. Expect HOA ($480–$545/mo) plus the mandatory ~$2,000/yr Club Talavera membership and Verano's ~$1,400/yr CDD. Budget the full stack, not just the HOA.
