We used Cart Farm 352-259-9701 (John & Jeni) a family operation. $75 dollars a week, better rates for longer rentals. They drop off/pick-up cart at no additional charge. Carts are insured; cart was fast. I believe this is the Jim Followell operation that was turned over to his Son/Daughter. Carts are gas.

Gracie, if Villageshooter's wife condones living with him "In a box down by the river," I'm sure he won't have any problem if she reads this forum. I have to wonder though if she calls him her "LITTLE DOM!"

Still wondering who they found to insure a rental golf cart.

Foremost Insurance insures rental golf carts. They are thru The Villages Insurance on Del Mar Dr. It cost me $51.66 per year. Their number is 352-753-2280.

I called and was told that Foremost is not writing any golf carts that are being rented. Do you have a contact person?

Sorry, I gave incorrect info. I use Foremost insurance for MY golf cart. I just sold my rental home in December and I used All State to cover the RENTAL golf cart. Thomas Keedy is the agent I used. He's at 352-753-1177. As of Dec, they were still covering Rental carts.

Allstate is no longer writing rental golf carts either. Have been unable to find anyone who will insure rental golf carts.
