About this property
2 KING BEDS in Village of Duval + Gas Cart - 2BR/2BA CHARM! + LOCATION!
* Perfect location! Halfway between two lively town centers, close to shopping on Rt. 466-A, right in the center of The Villages! There are 19 golf courses within a 15 minutes cart ride!
* Perfect to share! Two king bedrooms, each with full bath.
* Perfect for fun! Six golf courses within 5 minutes, Regional Rec Center, 1 block.
* Perfect for relaxation! Designed for easy living. Fabulous sunrise-facing lanai.
* Free guest passes and use of owner’s gas golf cart included.
This charming, clean and comfortable home in the Village of Duval is in the perfect location, ideally situated for folks who want to take full advantage of all The Villages has to offer. In the geographic center of The Villages, you will be halfway between Lake Sumter Landing and Brownwood Paddock, just minutes away from either using the owner’s golf cart. You can listen to free live music every night of the year, enjoy restaurants and shops, and conveniently participate in your favorite activities.
Stay Awhile Cottage is perfect for one or even two couples: It features TWO king bed master suites, brand new plank floors throughout, and tasteful furnishings to keep you comfortable and cozy. You will feel right at home as you walk in the door. Relax in the open and sunny living room, or on the large, breezy lanai, which is screened and with windows for year round comfort.
There are two luxurious sleeping areas: EACH bedroom is furnished with a super-comfortable KING BED for an amazing night’s sleep.
The fully supplied kitchen has everything you will need for a quick breakfast, a gourmet dinner, or anything in between. There is filtered water at the sink and a coffee pot (drip or Keurig) with starter supply of coffee/filters, blender, microwave, and everything else your kitchen at home offers. There's even a wine bar (BYOW!)
Relax in your down time in two comfy recliners or curl up in bed and watch your favorite shows on any of three cable-connected TVs, stream movies on demand through the included Comcast streamed tv service, and even connect to your Netflix or Amazon Prime or other services on the Roku TVs.
Life in The Villages is sweet: You wake up to birds singing as you sip your morning coffee or relax after golf, tennis, or pickleball on our fabulous 24’x12’ lanai. If you don’t feel like cooking, you can enjoy your meals in one of over 30 country club restaurants —there are 4 within two miles—or one of the dozens of great spots in Lake Sumter Landing (~3 mi. north), or Brownwood Paddock (~3mi south), the two lively town squares, each only a short ride away in our golf cart (a gas-powered Yamaha). And speaking of golf, there are nine courses within five minutes and over 50 courses available for you to play throughout The Villages. Interested in the hottest new sport? Take free pickleball lessons 3 minutes away by golf cart and join the largest pickleball community in the country! Or join any activity you can think of. With over 3000 clubs in The Villages there’s no way you will be bored—unless you want to be!

About the host
Hosted by Joel Ackerman
Dee and Joel Ackerman live near Atlanta GA, and enjoy travelling around the country and the world. We love the lifestyle in The Villages, and after visiting a number of times, bought our homes in The Villages to share the lifestyle with others who also would enjoy this fabulous retirement community.
Why they chose this property
There are thousands of homes in the area. We wanted a home that was comfortable, clean, and livable in a relaxed and casual way, and also dog friendly (for Belle, our Great Pyrenees and sometimes fellow-traveler). This home fit the bill. We updated it. Changed out the floors, painted throughout, and Dee (a retired interior designer) decorated it for comfort and style. We like to park the car and get around by golf cart, so we added a cart you can use along with amenities like a barbecue grill on the patio, and a comfortable table and 6 chairs on the lanai.
With so much to do, this area is ideal for mature adults. You will have access to the 50+ executive golf courses and four championship courses just to start. Tennis, Pickleball, cycling, many area pools and rec centers are also available for your use. And there are over 3000 clubs and interest groups to join and enjoy.

What makes this property unique
* Happy, easy living. It's open, light and bright, and we've tried to make everything easy for you.
* Great for 2 couples: Its a 2BR/2BA, but lives like it has 2 Masters. King beds with super-comfy mattresses on each. Big living area, dining table for 4 plus 2 at the bar, 6 more on the lanai if you have a large crowd.
* Clean and comfy: We got rid of the carpet and put in new wood-like floors throughout. Put the best foam mattresses on each king bed, and all new linens and towels.
* All the day-to-day amenities: We stay here too, so we made sure everything you need is here, from filtered water, to coffee (including a starter set of filters and coffee), to all the cookware and dishes you will need to cook dinner. Beyond the kitchen, there's a washer/dryer, vacuum, and all the other daily conveniences to keep you going. Park the car in the garage and tool around in our golf cart like native Villagers do!
