Red face golf cart path to Lowes

I know when I go over the bridge from Spanish Springs into Orange Blossom, I take a left... but where do I pick up the Golf Cart Path, that leads into Lowes?

Go until road starts to curve to right, on your left you will see a cart path with a small gate, specifically for carts. Btw make sure you protect your gate card, thats the only way you will get home.

Cross the bridge, make a left, run up just over half a mile and exit to your left.

These gates require a card and are SLOW and cannot be bypassed. There is no attendant either.

When you cross over the Spanish Springs bridge you will be on Paradise Dr. Continue on Paradise Dr. past the Rec Center and past the Boone Ct. vehicle gate. About 5 houses past Boone Ct (I think it is address 1159 Boone Ct), you will find a path to the left which leads out of Orange Blossom. Take that path and go through the gate (Remember, you will need your gate pass to get back in). Then follow that road past all the doctor offices to you get to WaWa's gas station. Turn right and then left and you are right by Lowes. If you now look at Google Maps, you will see where this route is.

Once over there you can also get to Walmart and Dollar Tree as well as Sonic and a few other places.

You also need your gate pass to get out.

After Lowes you can get to Aldi's, Walmart, Stonecrest golf course, and you can even cross back over 441 to get to Spruce Creek golf course.

If you are really feeling adventurous you can go all the way up past Walmart to Sonic and have lunch or Ice Cream. You may need a guide to find it the first time.

For those that live on the Historical side and close to Spanish Springs, the gate to all the development along 441 is a wonderful asset. We were here when the “Great Wall” went up and then came down. Happy trails…

We need a bridge or tunnel over by lowes-ish.
The cart bridge by vets memorial park is out dated and dangerous.
Too steep.
& Those little woop de doops at the bottom.

I got rear ended in my golf cart by a golf cart Coming down too fast, all I hear is whooooooosh, brakes locked up, sliding, and bang.
Treacherous when the rain starts.
I was going slow as there was another cart going the opposite way.

Please note: two carts doing 20 mph and collide. That falls into the fatal accident category of 40 MPH relative impact.

SLOW DOWN

Right, I wanted to jump the curb when I was over there.
