My wife and I visited 6 or 7 times before we purchased. We decided on the second day of our first visit that we wanted to live here when we retired. We "lived" each time we visited in order to see how we could take advantage of TV's amenities once we moved here. We toured homes on each visit so that when we knew we wanted to buy that we would already know the floor plan that we wanted. We purchased about 8 years ago in a village that was about 10-12 years old at the time because we knew that we wanted to be close to town centers, The Savannah, The Sharon, good restaurants, and large box stores like Lowe's and Home Depot. We bought about half way between Spanish Springs and Lake Sumter Landing and completely redid our home as we had built our last two homes "up north". We flat love the lifestyle down here. We are involved in a number of groups both from the neighborhood and from church. My wife is part of a small group of women who regularly do trips together on nearly a monthly basis, both on land and sea. We are as active as we want to be as well as secluded and private as we want to be. We are blessed to be here as we can choose to live exactly as we want. Best of luck to you.
