The Villages Golf Carts on CBS Sunday Morning

Yesterday, CBS Sunday Morning had a story on golf carts in The Villages. The story discussed the golf cart lifestyle in The Villages, showed a brief clip of The Villages Golf Cart Drill Team, and showed some very cool custom golf carts on the road today in The Villages. Check out the video below.

How to find a golf cart rental – Many of the homes available for rent in The Villages will come with a golf cart. But some don’t, in which case you’ll probably need to find a rental cart. Here’s where to look.

    My friend built his house there about 13 years ago. I thought he was crazy to move from Maryland until I visited..which I have many times.
    What a refreshing, beautiful & fun community. I’m privileged to be able to spend time in such a great place..

    Thanks, Dave Holter, my buddy

    I have visited there several times and really get a charge out of all the golf carts and happy owners. Thanks for rounding them up in this great feature. It is a pleasure to watch.

    The golf carts are nice, but they don’t protect me from the rain or offer me air conditioning like my new Wheego does! I love it! Simply amazing. Its electric like a golf cart but cuter and more safe. You can get them in st pete at suncoast!
