Bridge to shopping, churches and residential areas
From downtown Spanish Springs you can take a road leading over this bridge to several churches, various shops, medical facilities, and the Spanish Springs residential areas. It is used by both automobiles and golf carts.
Last year we enjoyed a Lifestyle Preview visit and fell in love with The Villages. The first night in town we stayed at one of the commercial hotels just outside Spanish Springs, and I got up early and walked around to get the lay of the land. I went over this bridge, turned around, and went back - probably three round trips. This bridge is just beautiful and the view from both sides is remarkable. Thanks for the wonderful photo!
@ Gary - Greetings! Yes, The Villages is quite delightful. There are a lot of hidden costs, though, so check them out carefully...especially the bond on the houses. If you buy used, make sure that bond ($30K, I think) is paid off...
The Villages is one of the fastest-growing retirement communities in the United States.
Located in Central Florida, about an hour's drive northwest of Orlando, the Villages is now home to some 150,000 residents, many of which travel the area via golf cart.
There are now three "home towns" in The Villages, Spanish Springs, Lake Sumter Landing and Brownwood. Music and dancing is provided nightly in the town squares of each of the home towns.
The Villages is a beautiful community and we hope you enjoy viewing our photos showcasing its many charms.

@ Gary - Thank you for your kind comments!
Did you buy in The Villages?
Jacob - I wish we bought in The Villages, but we are two years away from retirement. But if we live that long, we'll be there!
