1500 sq. ft. 3 bedroom/2 baths. I guess it comes with a golf cart. Near the Shallow Creek Golf course and apparently 15 minutes from Sawgrass ... like Sawgrass is a huge draw.
$7000/month for January or February?
Are people really paying that kind of money for rentals in the middle of nowhere?

I rent in the villages often so I think I have a handle on the market...yes $7,000 is overpriced. I see a lot of owners post crazy prices in hopes a niave renter will panic and rent out of fear of missing out on the chance to rent for a winter. The reality is there are hundreds if not thousands of villages homes to rent, keep shoping and you will find what you want. The market is about $4,500 for a patio villa, and maybe up to $6,000 for a very nice 3/2 with a golf cart. Anything over that and you are getting screwed.
