Map & Owner's Profile
Close to Lake Sumter Landing - Including 4 Passenger Golf Cart
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Caroline
I first saw The Villages in an AARP magazine in 2001. It didn't take me long to make a visit to see what the talk was all about. We bought our first home here in 2004 and sold and bought our second and present home here in 2006. We chose our current location not only because of the beautiful home and neighborhood, but mostly because of the perfect central location. We are only about 1 minute to the Caroline Neighborhood pool and 3 minutes to Coconut Cove Recreation Center where you can take the Grandkids swimming. We are also about as close to Lake Sumter Landing Market Square as you can get and about the same distance to Mallory Hill Country Club.
The Unique Benefits at this House
When you stay at our home in The Villages you have the same privileges to all the amenities as I have. Golf, Swim, Shop, Eat, Pickle Ball, Bocci Ball, and so much more including everything else The Villages has to offer. Our home is tastefully decorated with everything you will need for a comfortable stay, including the 4 passenger golf cart. Please read our Traveler Reviews and check out our Calendar.
About a 3 minute golf cart ride to Lake Sumter Landing Market Square with Nightly Entertainment, Shops, Restaurants and so much more.
About a 1 minute golf cart ride to the Caroline Neighborhood Adult Pool.
About a 3 minute golf cart ride to the Coconut Cove Recreation Center. This is where you take the Grandkids swimming. It also has Pickle Ball, Bocci Ball, Billiards, Conference Rooms and more.

We know that choosing the perfect place to stay on vacation is tough, and we have encountered many disappointments over the years, but not this time! Our stay in this property on Maybank Loop was rewarding in many ways. The Villages is an excellent place to visit if you want to be active and included in any and all activities. The unit we rented is in excellent condition, pleasantly decorated, clean, and supplied with one's every need, including televisions in every room! However, given the opportunities in The Villages, you will find yourself "out and about" with little time for television. The location is excellent, with easy access to grocery stores, restaurants, entertainment and shopping. If you find anything you need or questions to be answered, you have ready access to the owner. We would recommend this property to anyone we trusted to take care of it appropriately.

The unit we rented on Maybank Loop was well above average both in supplies provided and cleanliness.

Excellent in every way. This unit is conveniently located, well supplied and clean. The owner was always available should one need to ask questions, etc. The Villages development is unlike that we have ever seen. The communication stream regarding activities, etc. was excellent; every person we met at the recreation centers was courteous and helpful, and most of them treated us as if they were glad to have us there! We participated in tennis, pickleball, euchre, dominoes and attended several concerts in the Church on the Square, two lectures on medical issues as well as a Dixieland Jazz band rehearsal (which was excellent). Needless to say, we enjoyed our visit to the Villages.

We highly recommend this property if you are looking for a wonderful house in an excellent neighborhood with very accommodating owners. The house speaks for itself -- very clean, well-maintained, classy but functional furnishings, and close to restaurants and entertainment. Photos can't capture all the benefits this house and it's location have to offer. Our thanks to the Carnicom's for sharing their beautiful home with us and for helping make our visit a memorable one!

We had a wonderful stay in this lovely home. (It is even more beautiful than the pictures indicate.) It was fully furnished with everything that you could possibly need. The home was absolutely immaculate and very close to everything. (The location cannot be beat!) We would highly recommend this rental. Tim (the owner) was very professional, helpful and courteous to us and we hope to have the opportunity to rent from him again. Thank you.
