Seeing the beautiful lake(s) at The Villages, my husband and I were wondering if you can rent a boat by the hour or for half a day outings? We are planning a lifesyle tour later this year, but would like some info about this now. Could residents give us some help? Thanks! Sue

Dear Sookey.

It hurts my heart to say anything negative about a place that I love so much, but I am hoping that all of the wonderful things about this place that you will find when you get here will divert your mind from the fact that this is really not a mecca for boaters.

Hope you enjoy everything else and fall in love with it like most of us do.

Welcome and enjoy your visit.

If you want to stop by a "real house" PM me when you get here.

Kind wishes, Gracie
