Default Map of Golf Cart Trails

Is there a map you can pickup or purchase of the golf cart paths? (Yes have the app..wanted something we can look at and learn our way around..)

In case not aware, In some places, residential streets can be used for short cuts or to avoid traffic/gates.

The GPS apps can help find those.

And if you have not heard, some neighbors do not like you to use them.

In case they haven't heard, the streets are public.

They should have done they due diligence when purchasing the property if a little golf cart traffic was an irritation.

The multimodal map doesn't show the tunnels - would be really nice to show the tunnels along with their designation (i.e. B1) to use this with the published tunnel heights.

A "little" golf cart traffic? Now that's funny.

Thanks everyone! I was surprised when I followed the gps app from Magnolia Plaza to Sawgrass and I took me through the new construction where the roads for cars are closed. Are we allowed to drive carts through those areas? The golf cart paths seem fine and didn't have closed signs.

From Magnolia Plaza to Sawgrass is all MMP. First west to the Waterlilly bridge, and then east along Meggison Rd to Sawgrass. I can't think of a place where you go through construction.

Wow, looks like the paid GPS app is routing through construction areas!

The barriers and no trespassing signs should be respected...

I'm not sure how you missed the barriers! If you try and go down Corbin Trail, there are concrete barriers and a wire fence across the road.

If you try and go down the MMP at the Monarch Grove entrance, there are two wooden barriers with warning signs, although some people seem to think it's ok to move one of them aside and proceed through.

Either way, you traveling through a construction zone and subject to trespassing fines.

If the neighbors don't like that, they can issue the golf cart drivers citations/tickets. Oh wait, it's not a crime. Awwww. Too bad, so sad

The golf cart paths had no barriers. But as you can see I was confused on why the app brought me that way...I dont know my way around so was depending on the app. That's part of why I would like something printed. The app must have an error in it thinking these roads are opened
