Real Estate Agent with Dick Betts National Speaker SL3537832

There is a special place 1.5 miles east of The Villages, Florida just off 466a you should find the time to visit, The Rose Plantation. Does a dress code, eclectic China, fine silverware, stemware, and linen tablecloths enhancing the setting for the Americana-style food and wine interest you? Looking for a break from the chain and new constructed restaurants? Miss that place that has been there forever place and has that certain feel? Read this from their website:

“Newspaper publisher William Dwight of Holyoke, Massachusetts built the estate in 1917 as a winter retreat. The Dwight’s were the "Gatsby’s" of Fruitland Park. All through the Roaring ’20s, the Dwight’s hosted Christmas galas, Halloween masquerades, annual tennis tournaments and dozens of socials and garden tea parties. After a handful of new owners over the century, we purchased the property with a vision of it becoming something special for the community. We turned the century-old lakefront plantation home into an upscale boutique restaurant called The Rose Plantation.”

With so many choices in The Villages having that special birthday, anniversary or just want a classy place for a memorable evening.

Good morning DIck. As society becomes more casual and accepting, it is nice to know there is a place where the grandeur of yesteryear still survives and thrives. Enjoy your next visit.
