It's where I stayed when I had my LSV in 2011, the Lakeshore Cottages just east of the sales office at LSL and at the foot of the Morse Bridge. If you're coming off Morse at the first light there is Bravo Pizza on the corner and Winn Dixie to the left, straight would take you to the square, instead turn right and turn again. It has a gate, it has a very nice pool and only has 53 homes. I stayed for a week and used the pool everyday and I was the only person there. The very first home on the west side overlooking Lake Miona was Gary Morse's home, I don't know who owns it now. Gary obviously liked it for the convenience but it was so quiet in there and out of the way but yet you're only a short walk to the square and stores.

I kept up with some of the homes in there, Gary Morse's I believe sold for about $700K and the one I stayed in sold for about $600K. They're nice homes but you're paying for the location, the lots are very small and have no room for a pool, a big lanai or a golf cart garage. However, when you walk around on streets it makes you like you're on a movie set. You don't see anyone and the homes are immaculate and you have sidewalks with curbs and it's very nice. Here the location on this map.

We have found some here in TV feel they are "entitled." When Souillere villas were being constructed in 2018 we enjoyed the pool there because not many people lived in Soulliere and the pool was never had more than 3 or 4 people. There was one bimbo who used to be there at times who thought it was OK to blast music while she marched in the water. My wife would have liked to drown the witch, but I told my wife I would really mind having to visit her in jail. No we didn't confront her just left the pool and went back to our villa.

Radio is one thing. But kids in adult only pools seems to be OK now? Seems rules are for everyone else.

OP, why not ear plugs?

You won’t hear music nor the conversations.

i'm not sure where you live, but if you'd like to come over to where we are, south of 44, our pools have signs posted with rules. one of them is no radio's. only 1 time did i see someone 'break' the rule, and it didnt even bother anyone. he had it @ a table, listening quietly to sports while his grandkids swam. the neighborhood pools are even quieter.

I can't believe all the useless suggestions. Do what I do. I simply take out my hearing aids! Works every time. Also, I take them out at home when my wife starts to complain. Works like magic - makes life so quiet and appealing.
Huh? What did you say?

I have a question regarding rec centers' pool etiquette which I couldn't find an answer to when I looked at the rules on line. Do you think someone playing music for all to hear is okay at rec pools? I personally would never do it and don't appreciate being subjected to it, especially when I'm looking to have peaceful read on a lounge chair by the pool. I found this happens at the beach too, even had people do it on a tennis court up north. Thoughts?

Way too far for me, especially since I only have a golf cart this year due to border crossing restrictions. Glad you have that rule written on pool properties. We have to work on that north of 466. But thanks for the suggestion!
