Default Brownwood to Bradford by golf cart

I am considering new construction in the Bradford area and wondered if anyone can tell me how long it would take to get to Brownwood by golf cart?

Thanks

It would depend on where you buy in Bradford, that is a pretty large village, Depending on who's in front of you it's a 12 minute drive in a car, longer in a golf car, from Warm Springs to the Paddock Square entrance via Megisson and it could be up to 15 minutes more to get to Megisson from the southeast sections of Bradford so I would say it could go as high as 30 minutes.

Looking at the maps I would guess about 30 minutes as well. I figure someone must have timed it.

Thank you

I live in Bradford close to the Rec Center; in my cart, it’s quicker for me to go north to Hillsborough, across to Buena Vista and south on BV to Brownwood rather than take the Meggison Rd. route.

I have found 5 mph as average speed is pretty close. 5 miles away equals 25 minutes by golf cart

I live in Bradford - first time golf cart owner - and, although, I have The Villages GPS app - I find the plain Villages App (using the ‘Destinations’ tab (and selecting directions by Golf Cart)) better for me - provides very accurate directions. Took me 20+ minutes and was a great experience.

We've been shopping homes too and I wanted to know commute times by golf cart before deciding. Here are the times I recorded during my research from a week or so ago. I don't have an actual time from Bradford but hopefully these will be helpful. By the way, we have an older rental cart that does about 19 mph top speed. I know there are faster out there because I get passed frequently.


From Lake Sumter Landing to Oceola Hills (Deskin Ln North) 25 Minutes
From Oceola Hills (Deskin Ln North) to Chitty Chatty Neighborhood Rec Center 8 Minutes

From Oceola Hills (Deskin Ln North) to Brownwood via Hillsborough Trail 17 minutes
From Bonifay CC to Chitty Chatty Req Center 18 minutes
From Chitty Chatty Rec Center to intersection of Megisson and Morse 8 minutes
From intersection of Megisson and Morse to Water Lily Bridge 17 minutes
From Water Lily Bridge to Brownwood 8 minutes
From Brownwood to Evans Prairie CC 9 minutes
From Evans Prairie CC to Palmer Legends CC 23 minutes

I drove from the southern part of Bradford to Brownwood in 30 minutes(down to Megisson, over and up to Brownwood). Since it is basically a single lane road, the rate limiting factor is the density of the cart traffic.
