But I have to tell you, I am very concerned about the lack of retail and chain restaurants down here. Hopefully when Meggison and 470 meet that will open up some retail to the east…
But there is ready access to the Turnpike. For now, look a little outside the Villages.


Leesburg is just 15 min away, Clairmount 20, Orlando/Tampa 45, Disney 50.

The northern sections are 20+ min further away.
