We were there over Mothers Day one year and spent half the day driving around looking for a restaurant where the wait was less than an hour, even driving down to Leesburg. During the season some of the pools have to turn people away due to maximum occupancy limits.
We were there this past Christmas and New Years and it was crowded every where we went.
Your Realtor was telling the truth in my opinion. There's a lot of adjustments that we'll have to make but we expect that they'll be off set by the nice new home we'll be getting, the activities we will be able to participate in and the people we'll be meeting. We're golfers.

you are kidding right? mother's day is typically in mid may and you spent "half a day" driving around looking for a restaraunt and I love the "during the season" pools turning people away... would the season be january thru april when the weather is not really pool weather? wow so you are really moving here as soon as possible even though you hv to make all those adjustments... great preface...
I think your only adjustment is perhaps accepting the the fact that you bought a village want a be property near by cause you got so much more house for the money and now it is impossible to sell for half of what you paid for it. nice post though especially the part where "your realtor was telling the truth" classic, good one. I bought in tv eight months ago and i could not disagree with your post more and guess what I have no angle or agenda but then again i have not been here in mid may for mothers day when all the snow birds are gone .. have fun in leesburg next month.
