We lived in a patio villa in Hemmingway from 2008-2012 while we were snowbirds and it was great for that. In 2012 we made a full-time move here and opted for a 3BR CBS villa to get a bit more room and quiet.

Pro: low maintenance and affordable. Great for part-timers.

Con: It is noisier than the CBS, that's a fact. The interior was a bit lower end than the courtyard villas. Exterior: I don't think the vinyl wears that well long term. A 2BR courtyard villa usually isn't too much more expensive.

Best wishes. I'm sure you'll be happy in The Villages, great place to live.
