We returned in November for a 4-day Lifestyle Preview visit and completely fell in love with the surroundings, sense of community, and friendly people.

Now we're figuring out how to accomplish the next step: buying in TV! We are leaning toward buying a lot and building, although if we find that "perfect" house we might go that route.

A new unit has opened up in Fernadina. We would like to see those properties, plus the Sanibel and Charlotte villages, in person. We are planning to come down for another week, and would appreciate any suggestions, ideas, thoughts, experiences, etc., from the collective wisdom of TOTV.
PanG, Welcome to TOTV! Read and post questions and you will learn so much about moving to and living in The Villages from the wise people who post here.
