We have friends that live in Hawthorne which is on US27 south edge of Leesburg. It is on Lake Harris I believe. They are there for boat slip purposes and very happy. Also, we did check out, very thoroughly, Summer Glen, which is between Top of the World and The Villages. Other than "lifestyle" and amenities they have much better housing, price and quality wise, than the Villages. The Lifestyle hooked us, as many others. With the length of your stay you should find something that suits you and it may or may not be the Villages.
I should mention that when we get together with our friends in Hawthorne they always come to the Villages and we have never been down to see their place or ride their boat... Maybe there is a story there.
