Southern Oaks-Fenney Lack Recreation Buildings?
Cannot believe it's just 11 months since Fenney opened! Wow, the building pace is amazing and people ARE moving in! I'm loving the progress, can't wait to see what's coming next... As we're now looking to purchase a second home in SO, I gotta ask: its been reported that TV club numbers have jumped some 28% over the past few years, where are the many thousands of new folks going to meet for club meetings, card parties, dances, theatre, events etc. in their new "home-villages" area in Southern Oaks-Fenney? The Fenny Sales Center is rather short on meeting rooms compared to other regional recreation centers? Is the plan that we drive our cars (not carts) back north? To Rohan? Eisenhower? I do not want to be one of little faith, but Blue Heron and the other new "recreation" areas do not offer "meeting space"... Does anyone have any ideas/leads on how the indoor meeting space needs are to be handled for folks south of 44? And is more executive golf on the way?

Having said that, I see no reason why recreation centers will not be added as in the past and golf courses too. State of the Art Recreation Center in The Villages® Recreation Center Locations Patience Grasshopper. (Quote from aged and wise philosopher, Bogie Shooter)

More of EVERYTHING is on the way. For example, a regional rec center will be built in the northwest quadrant where CR468 crosses the turnpike. Mass grading has already begun, so it will be open ... soon

True, it is underway and there are more in the plans. The sales office in the Fenney recreation center is temporary and that will open up more space in there when that time comes. Don't forget also that quite a large section of Southern Oaks will be a short golf cart ride to Rohan and the areas being built north of 468 east of the turnpike and south of 44 will have easy access to Eisenhower via Buena Vista. They know what they're doing down here. It's fun watching it all happen, except for the dust.

We are snowbirds and renting for 2 months. We’re in the Calumet area of TV, we’ve heard so much about Fenny, so we finally took a drive there at some point we’ll buy a home in TV. I don’t understand what the attraction is of living in Fenny it’s a real negative when you have to cross the Turnpike to get there, it’s almost like it’s not really part of TV. It was a 22 mile drive to get there from where we are renting. Would someone elighten me what the attraction of Fenny? I’m also under the impression that there’s a prison not too far away from Fenny?

Some realtors are not happy about Fenney because they aren't allowed to sell new homes. New homes can only be sold by The Villages in house agents. I don't sell Real Estate. I am a happy Villager.

As soon as the bridges and tunnels are completed, Villages to the south of Rt 44 will “feel” more like the rest of The Villages. The Villages is the best planned retirement community in the U.S. IMHO.

Do those who knowingly chose to buy and live in Fenney have the "disconnected"?
I would think not as it surely was a major input in their decision making. The disconnectedness (or not) is point for discussion for many unfamiliar with the evolution of TV. |

Like you just mentioned, it almost does not feel like the Villages. That is exactly why people like it. It's away from all the craziness, but yet still the Villages.
