What's not fair?? Villagers often-times go to CC outside of T.V. to play golf and pay the rates there. So would that be not fair to the residents that live in those CC communities. Just asking!!

I played almost all Executive courses, but I’m sure some people would like to debate my argument. She could play outside TV cheaper, to me I think there’s more to it than what she’s telling you. Besides I thought you had to have a guest pass or be a resident to play on those courses? Something sounds a little fishy about what she’s doing. I played a lot of pool & I know for a fact that when someone moved outside TV the were RED FLAGGED & they couldn’t even sneak in because some tried.

Non-Residents can definitely play the Championship courses. They have to pay a non-resident fee that currently runs $20 more than a Resident Member Fee for a 18 hole round.

Although Town square music is not technically part of your amenity fee. It would not exist if it wasn't for us villagers paying our amenity fees as there would be no villages and no funding to do so. Its all good, just wish they knew which bathroom to use, including the pets! LOL We all got to go somewhere.

If I knew where the hell I was going, I would have been there by now!

I was the last one to post in that thread. What did I say to make them close the thread?

[mjpuleo]

when a resident entertains family or guests that is a totally different situation; just strolling in from the outside to eat, play golf, etc., with no connection to anyone living in The Villages is a horse of a different color. They want to use "our benefits" free while we are paying for this beautiful lifestyle. on the other hand, would the restaurants and country clubs survive without the business of outsiders??? it's a hit or miss situation.

That thread had run on and on in a written version of amoebic dysentery. It was time to close it and perhaps even wipe it clean.

The restaurants on the golf courses are public restaurants. They are not Country Clubs. Non residents pay a higher green fee on the 18 hole courses than TV residents. They can not play on the exec courses.

Please go back and read all the posts. People are trying very hard to explain your mistaken thoughts. The residents are paying for nothing that outsiders can use.

No, it's not..."hit or miss."

It's not even a..."situation."

The public, ALL of the public, have the right to use public roads, to go to privately owned establishments that are open to the public...and spend their money.

NONE, ZIP, ZERO, NADA of your amenity money, goes toward helping any of these businesses or paying for the public roads/street lights/parking lots/Etc...to visit these establishments.

The Villages Golf Carts actually rents those white numbered carts to non residents.
My wife works outside The Villages and co-workers have told her that they do it on a regular basis just to drive around.

It was unpleasant because of your lack of understanding of what you bought into .
