Cracker Barrel at Lady Lake by golf cart??
 

Does anyone know if you can go to Cracker Barrel at Lady Lake by cart in The Villages?

Best way to find out is to ask the Villages app for directions. Mine doesn't find a Cracker Barrel so my guess is you cannot get there by golf cart.

EDIT: Apparently, since Cracker Barrel is outside the Villages the app will not provide directions. As mentioned below, it should be reachable through the Paradise gate in the historic side.

Yes. You have to go thru the gate on the historic side (you must have a card, no button).

Thanks. Just use the resident gate card we use in TV?

Yes, but you have to actually use the card, the gate doesn't have a red button you can push to open it.

You go over the golf cart bridge to the historic side, through the park and onto Paradise. Follow Paradise past the postal station and softball field. You'll come to a stop sign at the Boone Gate. Continue I believe 5 houses past that intersection. You'll see a house with a rainbow flag on the left, and a narrow golf cart path immediately after that house.

The gate is just up that path. Go through that gate, follow that back road - it runs parallel to 441. You'll get to another stop sign just after Wawa on your left. Take a right there, and a quick left in front of BJ's. At the end of that little section of the drive, take a left (you'll see the Lowe's parking lot in front of you). Then a quick right, and the rear entry to the Cracker Barrel parking lot is just up ahead on your left.

Why not just use a car?

1. There are actually some villagers who don't have a car, and use a golf cart exclusively for daily transportation anywhere that a golf car can go (and Uber anything outside it).

2. Golf carts are infinitely more fun to drive around here.

3. Avoiding 6 traffic lights is a pretty big deal, especially when at least two of them involve left turns.

Because they can and they want to use a cart. It's fun, it's adventurous, it's novel, and it's unique.
Why don't you get rid of your car and instead get a skateboard? I mean, that's the kind of sense the "why not just use a car" post made.

Exactly right ElDiablo - because we can and it's fun, adventurous, novel and unique. Same to you OrangeBlossom - your #2 says it all - It's fun!!

Had someone ask me the other day when I was playing golf at a course that was 40 minute cart right away; "Why would you drive all the way up here"? I said - because I can. I'm retired, I live in a resort and can get around wherever I want on a cart - fresh air and sunshine. The drive is 1/2 the fun!!

I agree about the golf cart being lots more fun! But my question is, “Why go to Cracker Barrel?” We tried it again recently after many years and don’t understand the attraction.

No entry as indicated that I know of - I have tried with no success.

Yes you can.

Make sure to take your gate card since you will need to access the area and back. One of the few gates around here that has no red button. I live in Silver Lake, historic side.

You can use Lowe’s or BJ’s in the gps, if can’t find it.

You live in a “resort”?

It is not accessible by cart.

It is.
