Default Question for part time villa renters

Do you allow your villa renters to use your golf cart?
I know it is a 'no no', so , where do you keep your golf cart while the renters are in your villa?
I am posting this question on behalf of a friend.
Do you leave your cart inside or outside the villa garage?Any ideas/suggestions/advise is welcomed.

Thank you!

Because the cart insurance might not cover renters!

Just leave it in the garage with no keys available.

In the case of a gas cart, remove the battery.

So , if cart is left in garage, renters would need to leave their car outside, correct?

Take the keys out and make them sign a paper...that they agree not to drive it.

This was the case when I rented.

Most patio villas fit a car and a cart. I know mine does.

It's safe in TV, I leave my electric cart in the garage with the keys in it, with the garage door closed.

That was a good one that said take the battery out in a gas cart! Serious leg pulling, on that statement.

I knew a guy who rented his patio villa out and he didn't want anyone driving his cart so he took one tire off of it and let it sit in the garage that way for 6 months...

No. Villas have at least room for a car and a cart. Now, if the owner has filled some garage space with storage, there may not be room for the car, but I don't think that's common.

What happen if renter want to rent their own cart? Where do they put it in a patio villa, if your cart is there. Storage at cart barn would solve your problem

I keep my golf cart inside the garage and the renters rent their own golf cart. I give them $10/day off the rent to rent a golf cart. I dont want to deal with the liability if they crash and get hurt with my cart.
