But that area is difficult anyway. The golf cart route takes you way up to the Water Lilly bridge or down to the Bexley bridge which are both fr out of the way.

Cases like this, where the golf cart paths are greatly separated from routes legal for bicycles, are going to be a problem. Obeying the signs, avoiding circles, and using common sense while waiting for Google to recalculate will work but sure, inexperienced drivers will have problems.
The point was that Google Maps does not always follow the cart routes in bike mode. The Villages apps do.
