Welcome to Our Village Gem 2 – Steps from Lake Sumter Landing!
LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! Stay in the heart of The Villages—only a 3-minute golf-cart ride or 7-minute walk to Lake Sumter Landing’s restaurants, shops, and nightly live music.

We named this home “Our Village Gem 2” because it’s our second Villages property and has the same comfort, care, and attention to detail that our guests love. The location, in the Village of Caroline, offers peace and privacy just steps from the action.

The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware, dishes, and utensils, and fresh linens and towels are provided—just bring your suitcase and settle in.

Perfect Location
Few homes are this close to Lake Sumter Landing. Walk, bike, or take the golf cart to restaurants, shopping, and free nightly entertainment.

Golf is free for Lifestyle ID holders on Executive Courses, with small fees for Championship play.

Property was very clean. Attention is needed to furnishings, lights, and kitchen stove. One thing we did not like was having to wash bed linens ourselves. How can you be sure the previous renter actually washed all the linens or simply just put them in the dryer and turned it on and they appear to be cleaned. Not sanitary in my opinion. This also requires you to get up at the crack of dawn in order to complete a wash cycle and dry the linens prior to departure. I personally, would rather pay a few dollars more in cleaning fee to have cleaning people wash the towels and linens, I have no problem with stripping the beds and leaving linens in the laundry area, as I have done in previous rentals. The mattresses in both bedrooms are tired, need to be replaced. We had to buy a foam mattress pad in order to get some comfort while sleeping, on both beds.

Great place to stay

The only difficulty we had was the fact we had an early flight out and we had to get up super early to wash the sheets and towels. Although, in all fairness I think that had I let them know, they may have said not to worry about it. They were very easy to work with. Would stay here again w/o any hesitation.

Clean & comfortable

The owner was very pleasant to work with and was available pre, post & during our rental. The home was comfortable for 4 adults to relax and visit. Plenty of towels. The bed in the master bedroom was comfortable. The bed in the 2nd bedroom, I was told was not comfortable, but when I checked the bed it seemed soft and quite possibly not supportive for some. The kitchen was fully equipped. We only made breakfast and had everything we needed, the option for drip coffee or Keurig coffee worked out for everyone. The golf cart availability was a plus. However, we didn't use it, as we didn't want to get caught in a rain storm. Enjoyed the close proximity to Sumter Landing/market square. Highly recommend and plan to visit again. enjoyed the

Great location

Nice property with a very easy golf cart ride to Sumter Landing!!! My only (but significant) gripe was the request to wash the sheets and towels before leaving the property. 1) This is presumably incorporated in the cost. 2) Who has time for this? I washed the sheets as a courtesy and still waited 20 mins for the wash to finish before we could leave. I would have waited another 40 mins had I washed the towels. Never mind had we used the spare bedroom and had two other loads of sheets and towels. And it was an older washing machine so there was no way to wash sheets and towels together.

Perfect Location and Lovely Home

My husband and I, along with our dachshund, spent a week at this home in early July 2024. The house was clean, with modern decor and a well-equipped kitchen and bathrooms. The beds and linens were very nice, and the living room furniture was quite comfortable. We also appreciated the YouTube TV for watching local news and weather while there. The location was very convenient for many things, including a grocery store, Lake Sumter Square, and golf courses. And it didn't take long to get to Spanish Springs via gold cart, either. We really appreciated the fenced-in backyard for the dog.
