Over the years there have been similar complaints but they have been about almost all of the country clubs, Glenview, Mallory, Cane Garden, Havana, ...that they would not hold tables for large groups of golfers as they came in. They wanted all golfers to arrive and then be seated, but that was for lunch.
There must be a good reason for that. Perhaps all sixteen didn't show up sometimes? Perhaps many Villagers do dine at four? Maybe she has had drinkers linger a good while into the dinner time? I am sure she didn't make the rules.
I would not like to be a server in The Villages. I don't have the patience they must demonstrate daily. .
Not the same but the first to come up in search for "they wouldn't seat us."
