About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

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!

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!

Wonderful Stay/Excellent Host

Brad had all check in information, details about the house and area all organized and sent to me ahead of arrival. He also gave detailed instructions about how to reach him 25/7 in case you need anything at all. He was very responsive to all communication and friendly to work with. The house was very clean upon arrival. And the house came with golf cart and activity pass. I can’t wait to stay again!

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.

Beautiful Place!!!

Our 2 week getaway was top notch!! The house was beautiful and very clean. Had everything you could think of for appliances in the kitchen. The owner sent us links to videos on how certain things worked, for instance the TV, the golf cart, etc.This was the best!! Communications and response time with the owner was top notch!! Plus, we had use of the golf cart. We had such a wonderful time and I give credit to the owner for that!! All of this for a great price!! Thank you so much!

This was a very nice property. The home is very clean and well maintained. The golf cart is also an added bonus for getting around in. The host provided guest passes to the pool and something else, but honestly I did t have time to take advantage of it all.

So Comfortable it feels like "Your Home Away from Home"

Brad was an excellent host, and really communicated perfectly. The house is extremely clean, very comfortable, and highly detailed with decorations. It was great and I wouldn't change a thing. The four person golf cart was a great BIG plus. I would not hesitate and look forward to visiting again. Thanks, Bob S.

Everything as described

Nice quiet neighborhood & comfy beds! We stayed here because of the convenience of the location. My husband had surgery and this place was only 11 min away. It was nice to have things to do with my 5 year old while he was under to keep our minds busy. The golf cart was fun and so was the pool. We had to go to a different pool though because the one closest to the house is adults only. We had to find a family pool. Lots of food options nearby.

May Getaway

The house was very nice and we truly enjoyed our stay. Although we encountered some small issues, they were handled promptly by the owner. We couldn't have a thsked for a more gracious host than Brad. The proximity of the house to Lake Sumner Landing was OK, making it a convenient spot for our activities. The kitchen was fully equipped, and all we needed were groceries to feel right at home. Overall, it was a fantastic stay, and we highly recommend this property.
