If you are looking for the best car service at the lowest prices, its Randy and Sons Automotive located on SR 52 just West of Little Road (CR-1).

Hudson Florida Tune up or tiresHow did i come across this outfit? Well that is a fair question. A member of my staff needed new tires a few years ago. She had made many many many phone calls shopping around. And lo and behold it turned out that the lowest price she could find was at our neighbor Randy & Sons.

Not only did they have the best price mounted and out the door, but over time they showed themselves to be a company of integrity that only did what was needed.

Randy and Sons has established itself over the years as a trusted local automotive car service station.

Obviously it takes more than just good prices on tires to earn customer loyalty. But let me tell you, I was so pleased with their service, when I ended up using them, that I referred them to my brother AND my mother.

Randy & Sons are up on their training, have some of the latest state of the art equipment to treat your car they way you would want it, every time it gets serviced, regardless of whether it is for a common Lube Oil & Filter, or a complete Tune-up

If you’re thinking Hudson, Florida You must be Thinking Golf at The Links

If you’re thinking Hudson, Florida You must be Thinking Golf at The Links

womans backswing

Since The Links in Hudson Florida is one of my favorite Golf courses, and they do not have a web presence, at least as far as I can tell, I figured they deserved to be highlighted. I had included them in a previous blog post here: http://tinyurl.com/poxro9

I know of no other course where you get so much bang for so little
buck. Want to take a quick break from everyday life, but can not put in a full 4 hours on the Golf Course? Get a bucket of Balls for just $5 and drive away your stresses on the Driving Range for a nice diversion.

And since I am talking about the Driving Range I want to remind you to keep it in the back of your mind as you go after your drive on the 9th hole because the driving range parallels the hole but in opposite directions. So as you move up the fairway on the 9th you need to be aware of any stray slices/hooks that may find their way into your game. As not so good player, my big threat is trying to retrieve my hooked drive from the Driving range. That is not a good idea

And while this is not World Woods or Bethpage Black, it can not be beat in its price range from $15 to $40,back swing a round including cart. The Golf Course winds through The Estates of Beacon Woods, The Reserve and The Fairway Oaks Subdivisions. And after the 12th hole you have to go through a tunnel under Little Road (CR-1) to get to the 13-16th holes, and than come back under to finish out your round. And it has been a pretty consistent 4 hour round for me. My brother and his best friend have done it in 2 hours during twilight rates, but….

Now during Snowbird season, the course can get backed up a little bit at a couple of congestion prone areas, usually preceding a par 3, but that is usually the best time to meet new and interesting people to network with.

At The Links Golf course in Hudson, FloridaI have met people from Canada the Midwest and the Northeast so far. And if you would like to get a view of the layout of the Golf Course you can go here: http://tinyurl.com/ppgkz5

At http://tinyurl.com/ppgkz5 they claim The Links Golf Course is a 72 par, but to my knowledge, it is actually a 71 par Golf Course

Tasty Ice Cream Treats and more in the Hudson and Port Richey Florida Area are at Twistee Treat Twistee Treat Ice Cream

Are you looking for a delicious Ice Cream Treat or some snacks to cool off from the oppressive Florida Heat? Well take the family down to Twistee Treat In Hudson, on the border of Port Richey Florida. I had to get down there early in the day to get an unobstructed picture of the Unique structure. Usually it is overflowing with people, particularly at night, and vehicles park where ever they can find space.

Twistee Treats is a favorite among locals & visitors alike, and yet has very modest prices for its delicious treats. And in case you can not read the signs, on top of Ice Cream the also sell All Beef Foot-long Hot Dogs, Chili Dogs, Corn dogs along with fresh made Hamburgers and Cheeseburgers that are absolutely fabulous. I would put them up against your favorite burger place any day of the week and twice on Sunday.

They are also conscientious of today’s health concerns, and as a result also offer sugar-free & fat-free ice cream for all the various treats you can make from ice cream there. Their menu is extensive so you can go there many many times to try all the varieties they offer, or perhaps you have but one true love. For me it would be the banana split. I could eat that every day all day if I could. The only down side to this iconic ice cream stand and more is its location. If you are not looking for it, you would miss it. As you travel on State Road 52 on the border of Hudson & Port Richey Florida you will see a Bank of America Building at the intersection of Zimmerman where a stop light is located. On the north side of 52, behind the Bank of America Parking lot is the Unique structure. From the research I have done it appears there have been 90 of these buildings made for the Chain but as of now, I could only find scattered details as to how many are left, with the majority of people saying only 35. A lot of information is located at http://www.agilitynut.com/food/twistee.html including franchises for sale, which appears to be the only way to get one of these buildings now.

The unique Ice Cream shaped building has been in existence for over 25 years, and with your committed patronage, there will be another 25 years of Tasty Ice Cream Treats and more in the Hudson and Port Richey Florida Area at Twistee Treat

Waterfront Gulf Access Leisure Beach, Hudson, Florida Real Estate is so affordable now

Filed under: florida,hudson florida,leisure beach,real estate — LoveTheGulfRE @ 14:47

Waterfront Gulf Access Leisure Beach, Hudson, Florida Real Estate is so affordable now.

One of Hudson, Florida Premier Waterfront Gulf Access communities is one of my favorite communities. And as a result of the Subprime mortgage meltdown prices have become very attractive. As you will see in the map below, the charming Community of Leisure Beach is only made up of 7 Streets and is minutes from the gulf.

  1. Nautical Isle
  2. Leeside Isle
  3. 1st Isle
  4. 2nd Isle
  5. 3rd Isle
  6. 4th Isle
  7. 5th Isle

Every street, save 3rd Isle, is a cul-de-sac so it is also a very quiet neighborhood making it easier to enjoy the serene lifestyle of Florida Waterfront Gufl Access in paradise. Back before the crash you could not buy a waterfront gulf access lot for under $300,000 in most communities. The most recent sales were distressed properties and did not break above $200,000. Now while most properties have only about 60′ of waterfront, the properties on the cul-de-sac’s have as much as 135′ of waterfront. And it was just a couple of years ago that the Canals were dredged.

Another attractive feature of this Waterfront Gulf Access community is No Bridges. You’re sailboat is free and clear to launch here with direct Gulf Access. so not only can you fit a long boat in this community, tall ships are at home as well. So if you are a boat owner, or plan on being one, I would suggest you take a good look at Leisure Beach In Hudson Flordia. And if you zzom out the map below, you will see the New Hudson Super Wal-mart in the bottom right corner.
