The cart video was funny but what caught my interest was this huge retirement development that had about 100 MILES of golf cart roads, tunnels and bridges. Shopping, recreation centers, entertainment, restaurants via golf carts!? Huh? The Villages? I spent 2-3 weeks every summer in Largo, FL for 10 years and hadn't heard about this place.
So after enjoying a dozen videos, reading Leisureville(!), watching The Villages DVD and, most importantly, reading this forum <THANKS!>, I have rented a house (with cart) in the village of Lynnhaven for the month of May to see and experience this place for myself!!
I sold my house in 2006 and downsized to an apartment, then retired in 2008, so if this place looks like a good fit maybe I'll make the "hop".

contact the villages and set up a lifestyle business for about six days. They will charge you a reasonable fee but then they will give you freebies equivalent to or more than you paid.
You have to come here. There is no way for you to even begin to understand what this place is like unless you see it. And then you still may not believe it.
