Limit to guest stay?
 

Curious if there is a limit to how long a grandchild can visit or how many nights an adult can stay?

30 days total per year for grandchild. No limit on guests over age 19, but I don't know how long their guest passes can be (for pools etc.)

If over 19, as long as you can tolerate them. If under 19, 30 days total for the year.

who checks up on this???

The guest pass would need to be renewed every 30 days

The number of young adults and grandchildren living in The Villages is growing at an alarming rate. The school buses come into some of the areas in here to pick up children that live permanently with Grandma and Grandpa.I believe that nobody really checks up on this , therefor this so called 55+ community may soon become a myth.

It's in the computer once you get guest passes. However, if no guest passes are issued, then it becomes one of those things that is complaint driven.

Why get a guest pass not needed

That is so funny.

So I'd guess that like 'gated community' it is a myth. Last winter I was never askedto show my guest pass

All information can be found here;

http://districtgov.org/departments/R...D%20Policy.pdf

Guest ID cards are issued for a guest (s) whose current residence is outside
Lake, Marion and Sumter counties for up to 30 days from the issue date. Guest
ID card renewals may be requested after the 30th day for an additional 30 days
and renewals may continue to be issued every 30 days.
The In-Area Guest ID card for qualified family members is valid for one (1) year
from date of issuance.

I think most people would wonder where exactly you mean? I have never seen a school bus around here in The Villages anywhere except on main arteries like 466, 441/27 or 466A..

I respectfully say that I think your post is a gross exaggeration.

I would be willing to bet a Coca-Cola that if someone had grandkids living with them in The Villages that someone would quickly make a call to the Compliance Department.

Just look at the number of complaints have been generated for lawn decorations!

There would a literal uproar over live-in kids.

I don't believe this to be true. Where are the "areas in here"? What villages or streets are you referring to? Maybe the the non-age restricted, family friendly areas that are adjacent to The Villages?

As long as 1 roll of toilet paper lasts.

I have a plaque that says: Family and fish start to smell after three days.

No golf/pool
 

I guess you didn't play golf or go to a pool. :)

a

Or go into a rec center, or take a class.

The Villages is not a gated community. It's a community with gates, which means anyone can come and go as they please. You will be asked for an i.d. if you use the pools, the rec centers, playing golf, etc.

School buses in The Villages? Like Gracie, I've never seen one here, except on the main roads. Or in front of the schools.

Please allow me to jog Saturday morning memories with this old thread:
https://www.talkofthevillages.com/fo...r-lake-124516/

That old thread even after 87 posts it was never actually determined what was going on.......................

.........and the buses never came into The Villages, just a street near a gate but definitely outside of TV.

I did both and yes golf required me to show my
card, but NEVER at the pool. I went there 3-4 times a week...water classes

If you are in the water when a check for ID's is done you will not be asked to exit the pool and show an ID.

Actually I asked several times at Mulberry pool and was told not to worry about it...classes were very good..

Our guests were asked at the pool.....once.

Is Mulberry a sports pool? If not, you were taking an unapproved, non-TV-sanctioned class started by a neighbor, and once in the water, you were not made to get out and show your ID.

If Mulberry is a sports pool, then you should have been made to show your ID at the door. If you weren't, some employee was not doing his job.

Mulberry is a big deep pool. The classes including agua zumba were professionally run. I did see workers moving the lanes but never once was I asked for my card. I did have it with me however.

So, did you have a regular ID, or a guest pass? Because if you just had a guest pass, you weren't allowed into a sports pool period, for any reason. I think you just got lucky. I'd stick with Mulberry if you come back, because everyplace else checks IDs.

My adult daughter and I were there a couple weeks ago on the LPP. We joined a water aerobics class at a sports pool (I think it was the Savannah Regional Rec Center) and no one asked us for an ID. My sales rep said that we were allowed to join any class or actitity with our guest pass. We went to our closest neighborhood pool 3 times and no one was there to check passes either.

BTW . . . we loved the pools, classes and all the rest of the fun we had! :coolsmiley:

You were probably legal due to the lifestyle visit. Still, it's another case of TV not enforcing its own rules not to check for IDs.

But I'm glad you enjoyed yourself! Hope you found TV to be a place you would like.:)

Where can I fond one of those plaques?!?!

During my visits to The Villages, I was asked several times for my guest pass at the pools and every time I took a class at the rec. centers. And I was happy to show my guest pass!

Our adult pool has a wet T shirt contest at 4pm on Fridays, I do not remember them asking for ID's...After the contest everyone heads to the square for more drinks and dancing, it is a great way to start the weekend.

I have friends who have had their granddaughter live with them for 2 years. They live in a villa close to Mallory. They are glad most of the owners in their village are snowbirds so there has not been a complaint yet. The granddaughter was 2 when she came to live with them.

Some times I am glad I can't find my glasses:beer3:

:1rotfl:...A wet T Shirt contest for the over 55 set....too funny!!

We need to show our passes for water aerobics quite a lot. I have been carded in regular pools as well.

I used to get asked at least 3 times a week. It now sits on a table next to me propped up in a folder. Problem solved

What makes them so privileged?
