distance in miles
 

With regard to traveling in a battery operated golf cart compared to an automobile, how far in miles would the Village of Calumet Grove be to:

1. Polo Grounds to the south
2. Lake Sumter Landing Market Square
3. Spanish Springs Square

My husband and I have both tried mapquest but they don't seem to take the address of the home we will be renting. I've typed it in every which way.
I've also tried typing in the village alone. We do have the big foldout map which I purchased at the mercantile store. The legend is questionable as to true "time" and distance in miles to get from point a to point b.

The home owner thought 15 minutes in a car to both town squares?
Not sure of that. So, 30 minutes in a golf cart? one way......

Also, I fully realize this is the WRONG PLACE to ask...but any suggestions for a casual (not suit and tie) Thanksgiving dinner place for November at which time our son, his wife and infant will be joining us for the holiday. Thanks to all in advance, who can help with suggestions. Appreciate your help.

I do not use mapquest so much, maybe it is the same as googlemaps. Googlemaps lets me drag the starting point and destination around map.

Here is a link that should have "somewhere in calument" to spanish springs.

One neat feature is the ability to drag the route around. See the white dot on el camino real? That is there because the original route was out on 441/27 and I dragged it to use elcamino real.

hope that helps, play around with it. IMO a pretty powerful map for free.

I've used this site to calculate some distances.

Excellent..........thank you very much. Using your link and the actual address it came out that Calumet Grove is in the town of Bellevue, Florida? Does the state or county go by the "Villages" names or by the original town's name?
This was very helpful and I do appreciate it.

Thanks to you also. Obviously good for cyclists and runners.
Our son in Colorado would find this useful, especially for the elevation changes.

With Google Maps you can also right click on a location and select "Directions from here" and right click on another location and select "Directions to here" and it will fill in the route and give the mileage and time.

.

It is about a 10 minute run to the Polo Grounds and about a 25-30 minute ride to either square.

It is about two miles to the Polo Grounds and a 5 mile drive to the squares.

I live in SPringdale which is just down the road from Calamut Grove.

enter "The Villages, FL"

Thank you all..........finally got it. We do use all the various maps, but this time it would not take the particular street in the Villages nor the name of the village itself......I did type in The Villages, Florida as well. But, finally did get it to work and the village ended up being in another town. Go figure.
Probably, what the area was originally called once upon a time. We map things all the time but this morning, neither my computer nor my hubby's computer would find that particular street..........no matter how it was typed in. Again, appreciate all the ideas...........

Sounds about right. It's what the owner said as well........THANK YOU.

A suggestion when using mapquest or google maps
put in

the villages, Fl, the address. We seem to get more address when we search that way.

Will do. Thanks.....

Try Vic's Embers Supper Club in Leesburg.

God No
 

Call Palmer Country Club (see phone book), I don't have number. We've eaten there last four years. Great meals and service. Well worth the price.

Are you putting in the entire street name? Ie the SE 91st or whatever preceded your street name? If you live in Marion county that is part of the address.
