Thanks for the report.
We will be headed up there soon.
The sites are about equal distance for us but the Turnpike shutdown risk makes the Villages location via 301 a more reliable option than Clermont from the southern Villages.

The new Walmart will reduce the motivation to use Costco for day to day stuff when it opens and distribute some of the snowbird traffic.
