We just sold our house in Massachusetts, and will be closing while we are down at TV enjoying the Lifestyle Visit. We hope to get the lay-of-the-land before we head over to a rental we found in the Village of Duval for the month of October. We hope to find a pre-loved, or perhaps build a new home over the next couple of months. Having spent 4 days at TV in April, we are just curious what to expect.
Hi PeteDz, welcome to TOTV. Congratulations on selling your home. You can call back and ask the person who booked the Lifestyle Preview Visit what perks you are getting.

When we did your visit two years ago this December (wow, was it that long ago?) before we bought, we were given: guest passes to access any and all the facilities; two rounds of golf at two different championship courses (I actually asked to change one course to Cane Gardens. It looked good in the information I read and I was right); movie passes; breakfast at the Veranda (which is now closed); a cash voucher, I can't remember the amount, for lunch or dinner at the Lighthouse Restaurant in Lake Sumter and lunch or dinner at Arnold Palmer Country Club; a voucher for a discount at The Villages Banner Mercantile; ... I think that is what we received back then.

We stayed in a beautiful fully furnished Creekside Cabana which was equipped with a golf cart and bicycles. We were near a pool, shuffle board and pickleball.

Have fun during your time in the rental and good luck with whatever you decide on: building or buying a preowned.
