I did speak to a family that was renting for a week. They said it was cheaper than booking a hotel at Disney. Curious sightseers who have never been to Florida. They got a kick out of driving the included golf cart around, looking for alligators, spending time at the squares, took advantage of the supplied bikes, and using the private pool in their rented villa. Drove to Disney and came back the same night. Went to country clubs for dinner. They said they felt like millionaires and had one heck of a time.
This gives me yet another reason to be grateful I live in the Historic Section. Most of the properties here are manufactured homes. Any family looking to enjoy their private pool and feel like millionaires, would not be renting in our area of the Villages. Not to mention that it's around an hour JUST to get to the Turnpike from here.
