Suggestions for neighborhoods / Villages with best Xmas light displays?
 

I want to take my elderly parents out for a drive to see Christmas lights, can anyone suggests best places / neighborhoods where there are a lot of houses with Xmas lights & decorations? I'm fine driving anywhere within a 20 mile radius of the Villages, so Leesburg, Tavares, Ocala all work for me. Thanks!

I would guess that up north where the homes are older and less expensive you would have a better chance of seeing that type of action.

And that would be because why?

I read that and thought the same thing... then thought (have NO idea if this is correct) maybe what they meant was that when we built our home near Lake Sumter the prices were about 1/3 of what the same house would sell for now, so perhaps the thinking was people who are now coping with homes that cost 3 to 4 times that would have less to put into displays and a significant electrical bill ? Just trying to decipher the reasoning.

The Villages Daily Sun used to print a wonderful Christmas light trail map and list of homes. It was such a nice gesture, our neighborhood really looked forward to it, we'd form a golf cart train, view all the lights going through the various villages, and then go to a location for hot chocolate and snacks. Don't know why the Daily Sun stopped this much appreciated feature... or we just have over looked it for a few years now ?

Still waiting on this logic.

There are a few streets off Moyer Loop that all get together to do displays...

Wise way in pine hills across from rose weichens has some good displays. It become snowman way during the season.

That's the one I was talking about...

A golf cart parade came through our neighborhood tonight to enjoy the lights at the houses up here in the old section. It was great to see so many folks out on this chilly night! Must've been around 50 golf carts, some also lit up and decorated, a bunch with drivers and passengers wearing costumes.

I was in on that parade. Randi and I love to see all the hard work you people put into making your houses look festive. We counted snowmen for a while and stopped at 275. There must have been a sale at Dollar General!!!

Try Village of Chatham...Hazelwood loop and Arlington loop:wave:

Try Colson St in The Village of Fenny

Village of Osceola Soaring Eagle - View Path, Nottingham Loop

Village of Hemingway - off Odell Circle - Arvin Lane,Mandrake St, Folkstone Way,Janwood, Driftwood, Castle Hill.

Not sure of Village - Off Odell - Nash Loop -Home has music synchronized with music

Off Moyer Loop - Pope Place, Hutcheson off Pope - Wise Way, Dewitt

Hope this helps
