The cart inside Paradise Grove

The gas-powered golf cart comes with the stay. Keys on the kitchen counter, gassed and ready in the driveway. It's for getting around Paradise Grove — the community amenities, an evening loop, a run up to a neighbor's. It does not leave the gate.

Where the cart goes

The cart is welcome on every road inside Paradise Grove. Routes guests use most:

• House to community amenities. Two pickleball courts, basketball goal, community fire pit, clubhouse, and the seasonal pool are all a short cart drive from the front door.
• Sunset loops. The community roads have quiet stretches with trees on both sides. A slow loop before dinner is a good way to wind down the day.
• Neighbor visits.If you're sharing the house with friends or family in another Paradise Grove rental, the cart is the easy way to bridge the two.

Where the cart doesn't go — take the car

The cart stays inside Paradise Grove. For anything outside the gate, take the car:

• Wax Marina — two-mile drive, about five minutes by car. Pontoons, fishing, lake access.
• Iberia Beach — outside the community, short drive. Public swim area on the lake.
• Mammoth Cave — fifty-minute drive. Plan a day, take a tour.

House rules for the cart

• Inside the gate only.The cart is not street-legal outside Paradise Grove. Don't take it on KY-728 or any state route.
• Don't leave the key in.Park in the driveway or garage when you're back for the night and bring the key inside.
• Drive slowly on gravel. The community has some gravel sections; under-tire grip is fine but the dust kicks up.
• Kids in the cart.No standing, hands and feet inside, drivers must be old enough to drive a car legally. Same rules you'd set anywhere else.
