I saw a plan that showed a cart path running alongside 468 and then heading north-west parallel to the turnpike and eventually crossing 468 just south of Brownwood. That seems like a more feasible plan.
I can't recall where I saw it, but I'm thinking that it was posted here on TOTV.
And yes, it's going to be a hard sell with only two executive courses and no championships. Even if they build a championship course, residents in those Villages would be restricted to that one course unless they want to travel a long way in their golf carts.
The nearest championship course is Bonifay and that about 5 miles as the crow flies and I'm guessing 8-10 miles by golf cart. And that's the closest.
I have friends who will be moving to The Villages in March. They are considering Fenny and I strongly recommended against it. Unless you like being isolated from the rest of The Villages, and lot of people might, this is not the area for you.
