Curious...where are your must-see/go-to places when showing first time visitors around TV (restaurants, scenic views, beautiful rec centers etc.)?

Eisenhower Rec Center, Rohan Rec Center, golf cart ride to Brownwood and of course the bronze cattle, golf cart ride to Lake Sumter with lunch on the deck of RJ Gators, and the preserve off of Moyer Loop.

Golf cart ride to....anywhere and everywhere!

Atlas Dog Park and the adjoining Nature Preserve are quite nice to visit. You cannot take pooches into the Nature Preserve though.

Town Squares for the evening entertainment.

The Barnstorm Theater is our best IMHO. People should check this movie theater out. It has many western themed nick nacks in its lobby as well as further inside.

all of the rec. centers and squares then everything else if time allows.

I like to take guests for golf ride over to the Historic District. Going over 441 is a fun ride and viewing the homes are fun to see how TV started. Much more "neighborhood" type feel there. Always love viewing the warmth of the homes there and uniqueness.

A fun ride is going over bridge at Lake Sumter, then down 466, then back down Buena Vista thru the large oaks of Lake Sumter area.....my favorite spot in TV.

So many of our visitors are amazed at the number of places we can go on a golf cart.

As well as commenting " I have no idea where I am, I hope you do". We do, it takes time but yes we do.

The more north you take your cart the more mature the scenery.

Bacall Rec Center so they can get a picture with Bogie. Definitely Eisenhower. Then, I try to let the interests of my guests steer me where else to go when.

I did this only a few months back. I start off taking them to the 3 market squares. I show them Lake Sumter after which to Spanish Springs and on to Brownwood. They are truly surprised at the scale of The Villages and by the different styles of the squares. In the evening, make sure they see one of the squares where live music and all the dancing go on. I also show them a few Regional Rec. Centers like Seabreeze, Colony but last will always be Eisenhower. Will take them also to one Championship Golf Club with a lunch if possible. We did dinner at Lopez this time. For the future guests, I must include the Fenney area. Oh my goodness! 😊

Walking the entire dock at Lake Sumter Landing early in the morning and late at night (and anywhere in between)! Something really therapeutic there. Count on it.

I know this sounds odd, but we stop at the regional centers, and rec centers. Not only are they in awe of the decor, but my favorite restroom is in Seabreeze. The color and tile combination is just pretty. As I said odd place to take them to centers, but if the developer took that much time to make a bathroom look like a spa retreat, than you know the rest must be wonderful.

I would take them down to Fenney so they can see how The Villages is expanding.

[Villageswimmer]

My favorite is Rohan. To me, the history of TV and the aerial photos are fascinating. Also the paintings on the doors done by Villages artists.

Yup, Sumter Landing is the Place too go. Our company Always say's WoW, plus it's not that far away in a Golf cart ride from the house. That's the Fun of it All........:thumbup:

p.s. I call it my back yard here in TV..:D

[manaboutown]

Of great interest to some but certainly not all might be participating in the lengthy happy hours at well known drinking establishments on the squares.

Geeess, who thinks about that when U take ur company to see Sumter Landing? I don't have to participate. Just Enjoy the View :D :D

[mikemalloy]

OK, assuming there are no time constraints we start off at the Ike and then drive through Brownwood. We then go up Buena Vista all the way to 42. Most guest can't believe how big the Villages is. During that time we see the changes in architecture in the past 20 years. Then we go across El Camino and visit Spanish Springs. We cross 441 and they get to see how it all began. We travel up the the "heart of the Villages" Sumter Landing and then go south on Morse to Moyer Loop. We see all the new homes built and in progress. We'll visit Rohan and see the Soaring Eagle Softball complex. The tour used to stop there but now Feeny is an add on it time permits. Even without the Feeny visit, folks just can't believe the size of our home town.
