Of course, no one working for the Villages ever knows ANYTHING. I just hope enough people mention it and that word somehow gets to the decision makers. Can’t we get a water feature in Brownwood Paddock square on par with Spanish Springs for example? Love the Villages but feeling a little cheated in this regard.
Amazon has small portable water falls incased in plexiglass, various sizes, battery operated. Different colors as well.

Some are actually small enough to take with you, set it down next to you and enjoy.

Meanwhile others will get that same soothing feeling that you will be having. Enjoy

So say we all!

Bonita. Our house in Va sold much faster than we thought and did not have time to build one and when we went to Feeney thought it was too far away from the earlier Villages.

In our ramblings while renting, we pretty quickly decided that anything at minimum of a couple of miles north of Brownwood would be out of the question for us.

But that's just our preference and obviously, there's lots of people who don't mind even being south of the toll road, with no current golf cart access to the rest of The Villages (or a real golf course for that matter).

I always take guests to see the bronze cattle and horses at the entrance to Brownwood. It is a great place to pose for pictures, and unique to Brownwood. I really appreciate the diversity of the 3 squares, and enjoy showing the different flavor of each to my friends

Wow. Never will take guests there ? Life is so unfair without a water feature at the square.

Those of us living in "Feeney" are doing just fine, thank you very much.

Got a good spanking for bringing this up but no one has answered the question. Why? Maybe there’s a great reason. Just curious. Thanks for all the replies. This troll will crawl back under his bridge now (maybe there’s water there). 😁
I will answer your question with another question. Where would you think they could boy this water feature without taking away some of the 2 most valuable things in Brownwood retailers and parking?
