Habitat for Humanity is a great resource. We donated a lot of our furniture to them when we realized that four bedrooms don't fit into two!!!!!! Ha..Ha!!!! Actually, we should have left everything in the house up North and sold it furnished.

We did buy several pieces at Southern Lifestyle but that was before he knew there were options.

I know the Villages has a list and if they rent it for you, LOOK OUT, they have a REQUIRED list and it can cost you a BUNDLE.

Better to rent it yourself on an excellent website called ****...vacation rentals by owner. It is nation-wide so you have to click on Florida and then you will click on the Villages and voila.....you will see how others furnish their homes they rent themselves.

When you come down, set aside time for yourselves to do the enjoyable stuff like drinking and dancing in the squares. All the other stuff, if you make a list, will fall into place.

Bargains and Treasures is another great resource and Kent Furniture further north on 441/27 towards Ocala has rooms of fair priced furniture. Don't go overboard since you are not planning to live in it full time. Just get nice stuff that can take rental treatment and make a welcoming appearance.

Best of luck to you!!! :bigthumbsup:
