About this property

Fly-in place to stay close to The Villages

This lovely place is very close to the Villages, so all entertainment and shops are within a 10 minutes drive. But you’re still in a secluded area on a 5-acre lot.
All the big attractions (Disney, Universal, etc.) are within an hour's drive. Same for the outlet stores.
Pilots! Fly to your own vacation destination since this cottage has its own grass 3200 ft runway. Tie-down is available for free.
Arrangements can be made for non-pilots to enjoy the freedom of flying.
Or just jump in the pool and relax. The pool can be heated (80 °F) in wintertime for an extra fee.

The Villages are just around the corner. So we have all the shops and restaurants close by. But when you are on the property it feels like you are in the middle of nowhere! It's a 5-acre lot part of a bigger 80-acre lot with a grass landing strip. On our 5-acre lot are two houses.

No public transportation nearby. You'll need a car!
