Walk or Cart to Lake Sumter Landing! Our Village Gem - 5 Star - w/ Golf Cart

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.

Highlights
• Golf Cart included – explore like a Villager
• Smart TVs in living room and both bedrooms
• High-speed Wi-Fi throughout
• Bright, inviting décor and open layout
• Indoor and outdoor dining areas

The Home
Enjoy an open, light-filled floor plan designed for relaxing or entertaining. After a round of golf or an evening at the Square, unwind on the sofa with the 55-inch Smart TV, or stream a favorite show in either bedroom. 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. From this central Caroline location you’ll have access to over 50 golf courses (14 championship, 40+ executive), multiple recreation centers, pools, fitness, pickleball, tennis, and more. Golf is free for Lifestyle ID holders on Executive Courses, with small fees for Championship play.

Dining & Relaxation
We love heading to the Square for happy hour and live music every night. Nearby Country Clubs offer great dining and entertainment, or you can enjoy a quiet meal at home. A convenient ALDI grocery store is nearby at Stillwater and Morse for all your essentials.

Perfect location and perfect accommodations for us and our little dog ❤️ we especially liked how they enclosed the sun porch and made it air conditioned living space with a love seat and tv, it was a nice surprise!

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.

My stay

I had a wonderful three-month vacation here. The house is just as stated, with everything that I needed. The backyard is enclosed for a pet. There is a golf cart included. The hosts are so attentive, want everything to be perfect for one's stay. I couldn't of asked for a better location. I would positively recommend this home. I will be back also.
