Not sure how you came up with that. The golf cart trails that will go from Fenney area to Brownwood go nowhere near Lake Deaton. From Fenney, you will take a tunnel under CR468, go by the new Everglades rec center (not yet constructed), ride parallel to the turnpike in the direction of US301, cross a bridge over the turnpike where it will then be almost a straight shot to another bridge crossing 44, then a small bridge cross a pond, right into the parking lot at Brownwood.
It's very misleading if you look at how you currently have to travel from the rest of The Villages to Fenney, crossing 44 by Rohan and the down 468 which goes south and slowly sweeps east to Fenney. If you imagine yourself taking that same ride in a golf cart, you'd say no way is that a reasonable ride. But compare that route on a map beside the planned route to Brownwood on the same map. You'll see it's a much shorter, direct route.
