About the host
Hosted by John and Linda Mason
John and Linda met in The Villages and we got married on 12/12/12. We love showing visitors this wonderful active community. We take pride in our home and the community we found to retire in.
Why they chose this property
This property is in a beautiful location with easy access to local pools, recreation activities, shopping, golf, tennis, pickle ball, restaurants, two of the three squares, and all the wonderful opportunities available in The Villages.
What makes this property unique
Our favorite place in our home is sitting on the lanai and looking out at the quiet neighborhood. It is so peaceful. Our renters have told us that the bed in the master bedroom is fantastic to sleep on and the voice activated remote is a treat to use for finding TV channels. They also love the slate appliances and the Floridian Decor.
