I have 2 suggestions. One is to download the FREE Villages app (THE VILLAGES APP). In addition to a lot of interesting options, it also includes "Destinations" and you indicate where you want to go and get directions for your Golf Cart. (did I mention it is FREE ??). The second is to learn the routes the way we did. Buy a Villages map and at every intersection unfold it and look totally lost. I guarantee that in 5 seconds someone will stop and gladly give you directions and offer a ton of helpful advice. (and other than the $5 map cost, the directions you will receive are also FREE).
