If you can afford a month , I would recommend that you do it. It will be much cheaper by the month. It will be almost impossible to get a 10 day rental and you get more of the flavor of the villages if you stay longer. Regarding where to stay- stay in the Lake Sumter area . If you can get Creekside Landing , Mallory area , it’s a short golf cart ride to Lake Sumter and you are centrally located between Spanish Springs and Brownwood areas. Both are a distance by golf cart but still very doable. Do not stay in the newer area south of 44. Golf cart rides to even go to brownwood are about an hour and much easier by car. The setup of the bridges make the areas by Morse an hour ride by golf cart - easier to go to brownwood and across that the Chitty Chatty Bridge so far. Hopefully they will find an easier way as more areas are built , but right now it took me 2 hours to do the loop from that area. Best square with the best bands is still Lake Sumter also - also the square with the most restaurants. Right now , very few restaurants down in the new area south of 44. Old area across from Spanish Spring , makes you need to use the bridge across 441 to get to any of the squares. Quite a trip to go even to lake Sumter from there and at least an hour each way to Brownwood by golf cart. Hope this is all understandable to you. So start with the Lake Sumter area for your rental . Get a feel for the area before you even considering buying , stay for a month so you can get the flavor of each of the areas, and what is available so that it meets your needs. Good Luck
