I think the only downside to Rio Ponderosa is not having any option other than driving your golf cart on Morse, in order to get -anywhere- outside Rio Ponderosa.
On the historic side, I have lots of places I can go, shop, eat at, get medical care from, without ever having to drive my cart onto Morse.
But that isn't really a deal-breaker for me since I don't mind driving my cart on the Morse cart/bicycle lane. I'm not phased by it at all. Perhaps that's because I consider the golf cart bridge over 441 to be sort of like a roller coaster hill and consider it FUN to drive over rather than scary.
The entire experience of golf cart driving is adventurous to me. It's a mini-thrill that lends to the OTHER reputation of the Villages as a Disneyland for seniors.
