From a long time wannabee...as others have posted, take as many of the trolley tours as time allows. Ask questions of Villagers; most are happy to share their experiences about living in The Villages. Enjoy the nightly music and dancing at the squares (Spanish Springs, Lake Sumter Landing and Brownwood).

Restaurants I love to eat at during visits: Cane Garden Country Club, City Fire, Too Jays, Lighthouse Point Bar and Grille, Cody's, Amerikanos Grille, Thai Ruby and The Original Water Bagel Co. on 441 (I don't think it is golf cart accessible, but a Villager could confirm that).

If you enjoy going to open houses, open houses for both new and pre-owned homes are held daily in The Villages. Check out the Villages web site for the open houses. Also, the Daily Sun newspaper will have open houses listed in their classified section.
