golf cart rentals
 

has anyone used grndpa and grandma village buggies?

I have used Grandpa and Grandmas Village Buggies and have been very pleased. My sister has used them numerous times and will continue to use them.

My first vote would go to Jim Followell. His carts are in good condition; his rates are reasonable; he's quick to fix any problem and help you out. I've had clients who have used grandmaandgrandpa and have been very happy with their carts and service.

My basic attitude is almost anyone is better than renting from The Villages -- their carts are rarely in decent condition, go way too slow and are most definitely overpriced.

Just rented one today from Jim Followell for my son who is coming to visit for the holiday weekend. Nice guy, good rate. I paid his partner for 6 days, and a few minutes later he came chasing after me to give me back money - he said 5 days counts for a week - so he gave me one day back.
The cart is gas, but that works for me. Since Jim doesn't pay for the gas (he asks that you return it full), it's got to be much less mainetnance than replacing batteries every couple of years.

Humor
 

I do not mean this as something serious since it does not deal with health or any other serious matter. I also rented a golf cart from LSL as we were having family visit for a few days. I took it back after one day as (1) people could almost walk faster than it ran and (2) it was really dirty and at the price I did not feel it was my responsibility to take the time to clean, wash and vacumn it. I expected the gas smell since that would be something which would happen with gas.
When I returned it I mentioned my concerns and was told I was wrong. It was really funny as here I am the customer, unhappy and I am wrong. I guess they have not heard of Stu Leonards in Conn. They are a rather large market and they have only 2 rules for their employees. The first rule is the customer is always right and the second rule is to refer to the first.
The person actually started to engage me in an argument and I refused to participate as it would have been a waste of both our time.

A couple of years ago we had friends visit and rented a cart for them from Don's Golf Carts. They delivered and picked up. The cart was electric and went 19MPH and had curtains. Rented for $350 for a month. We were very satisfied with the rental. That was 2 years ago. Their phone number is

Grandpa and Grandmas great service and you do not have to worry about that cart being slow. Do not even need to be there when they pick up. Great people:clap2:

Grandpa & Grandma's
 

I have renterd from Scott Prince at Grandpa & Grandma's Village Buggies. They deliver to the house and the carts have power (and speedometer) and I have not had any problems with them.. You can contact at 552-8478

Thanks for all of your replies, but this thread that I started is actually from 2009. : ) Since then, we've bought a new house in Buttonwood, and we are 8 months from moving there. The responses are still useful, though, since we haven't bought a golf cart yet.

Renting golf carts
 

Want a good place to rent a golf cart? We just had a 5 day rental of 2 four-seater gas carts from Jim Followell. Pick-up and delivery were smooth and on time. Couple of seat belts on each so we felt safe with the grandkids on the back seats. Nice curtains (since it rained every day, we sure used those)! Recommend highly-and have already booked another rental with Jim. Call 352-259-7525 and check it out.

Make sure you have insurance on the cart when renting
