About this property

FREE Golf Cart! Fabulous Location! Classy Decor! Pet-friendly!

Nestled in the heart of the sought-after Winifred Village, this exquisitely adorned home offers an unparalleled experience in The Villages. Set within proximity to the renowned Lake Sumter Landing (that lighthouse that shows up in all the photos of The Villages) and the iconic Polo Field, this haven is a mere 5-minute golf cart ride away from these hotspots.

With Winifred Village's backyard bordering the esteemed Arnold Palmer Golf and Country Club, this location is a golfer's paradise. Adding to the allure, a delightful pool beckons just a 5-minute stroll on foot or a swift 1-minute ride in the cart!

Giving my guests a 5-star experience is my passion!

Our host was very accommodating. The house could use a bit of updating but it was clean and roomy for four people. The location is good and having a golf cart is a nice touch.

The owner was very communicative and responded very quickly to any question or request; simply a great guest / owner experience. The beds were the most comfortable beds that I have ever slept in while traveling; I travel a lot for work so that is an extreme compliment.It was a comfortable, relaxing place to be after a 1500 mile plus drive and dropping children off at college(s). I would definitely stay again.

We had an amazing stay at this property! The spacious kitchen was perfect for our family meals, and we loved having the backyard for our dogs to play in. The added bonus of a golf cart made it easy to get around the area and explore. The guest passes were incredibly convenient, especially for accessing the pool, which we really enjoyed.The host was fantastic—very responsive and helpful, providing us with all the information we needed to make our stay comfortable. We visit The Villages a couple of times a year, and this property has become one of our favorites. We would love to return in the future and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a wonderful getaway!

Great Experience, Lovely Property

Brad was probably the most communicative and accommodating host in existence. The location for us was perfect, 3 blocks from my in-laws and down the block from the pool, close to Arnold Palmer and a short distance by golf cart to the square. Having the golf cart for use was a game changer because I didn’t have to figure out how to rent one. The property is lovely and fit our needs perfectly.

About the host

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

The house is beautifully decorated and in the 10 years I have been visiting The Villages, I had no doubt that it is located in one of the best areas (Winifred Village). The famous Lake Sumter Landing (that lighthouse that shows up in all the photos of The Villages) is 5 minutes away via golf cart as is the famous Polo Field.

Winifred´s back yard is the famous Arnold Palmer Golf and Country club.

Plus the pool is 5 minutes away by foot or 1 minute in the cart!
