Being able to play February golf, in shorts no less, is like heaven though.

I have visited The Villages 3 times in high season and more than that in the summer. If the OP is going to be a full-time resident, I would definitely visit for a week or 2, or longer if you can in July or August to see how you acclimate to a Central Florida summer.
I will be renting in the Village of Bonnybrook for 2 weeks in July. I need another dose of Central Florida in July! This will be my first visit to The Villages since February, 2020. I am looking forward to seeing all of the expansion south of 44 that has taken place in the past 16 months. I really want to see Edna's on the Green. See you all at Spanish Springs, Lake Sumter Landing and Brownwood starting one week from today!
