We arrived in May 2011 for the Lifestyle Experience. We met our host who took us on the short tour over to Creekside Villas where she explained about our villa, the golf cart, bikes, tee times, etc. She also gave us a copy of the rec news and a calendar, which I thought was odd (I later understood why this is an important thing to have! lol!). We told her upfront we weren't interested in looking at homes as we had no intention of buying. We visited our friends who lived here, played golf, ate out, danced at the square, met new friends, and had a ball. When we checked out, we again told her we had no intention of moving here but would love to visit in the future. With no pressure or hard sell, she wished us well and off we went...only to call her in 3 months to tell her we were moving here full-time!! Such is the power of visiting The Villages!! It has now been 1 year, and we've never looked back. As one guy said as he walked by us at the pool one day, "Why are we the lucky ones (to live here)?" I don't know; I only know that every day of Village living is a blessing.

Good Luck! You will have a fabulous time!
