Hi if you rent, you can buy a recreation pass and it is worth it for sure, I think it is good for the entire rental period.
You can call the Village offices from the phone book, they are good at getting information together.
There are rentals in the Sun paper, and also on
Rental Homes | Houses For Rent | Homes for lease | Homes For Rent By Owner - FRBO.com etc, rentals by owner.
I heard offhand, that if you have a guest pass, then the golfing is free but limited to something? We do not golf. Ask the sales office.
Go on line to the
www.villages and look at a map and decide, do you want to walk to everything, golf cart to it or drive. Do you care about busy roads, swimming pools (plenty in the rec centers) the rec centers are really awesome.
Some rentals have golf carts furnished and if not there are several places to rent carts, and be careful all of them are not a bargain, do some shopping, and they will bring it to your place included in the price.
Do you want a villa, all fenced and private, small garage or a house with a lot of room and yard and garages?
Good luck. bbbbbb
