We had the most amazing holiday at this property. Upon arrival the house was clean, tidy and had all the amenities you could need. The resort felt safe and the neighbours quiet thus allowing us a peaceful holiday. The location overlooking the lake was beautiful and we throughly enjoyed watching the vast array of birdlife and fish. The house is 20mins away from Disney but also equidistant between east and west coasts which we also visited. Our sincere thanks to a great host and we hope to return one day.

Our family truly enjoyed our time in Florida, and having such a wonderful house made the experience even better. The five bedrooms and four full baths were perfect for our family of ten. On days when we weren’t visiting the amusement parks, we appreciated being able to use the on-site tennis and basketball courts, as well as the game room in the house.

About the host

Hosted by Maddie Lock

Host profile image
For nearly thirty‑nine years, my late husband Denis and I built a life centered around family, love, and togetherness. We raised our two children, Suzanne and Robert, and I was fortunate to be a stay‑at‑home mom—something I remain deeply proud of. Creating a warm, welcoming home was always my priority.

Today, I’ve turned that same care and attention toward our home in Florida. Family has always been at the heart of everything we do, and I hope that sense of comfort and connection is felt by every guest who stays with us. Many of our visitors have become friends over the years, and that truly captures what this home means to us.

Communication is incredibly important to me. Your stay is not just a transaction—I’m here to ensure your experience is smooth, enjoyable, and memorable. Trust matters, and I take great pride in offering a home where you can relax, feel cared for, and make wonderful memories of your own

Why they chose this property

Florida and family life go hand‑in‑hand, and there’s truly no better place for both than the peaceful oasis of Lake Berkley Resort. From the moment we arrived, we knew it was exactly where we wanted to be.

This upmarket, gated community offers an incredible range of activities—tennis, basketball, volleyball, and so much more—making it the perfect setting to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy quality time with your loved ones.

Lake Berkley is wonderfully tranquil, a true haven for local wildlife, and now features our newest highlight: a fabulous community pool and splash area designed for adults and children alike.

Best of all, the resort sits right at the heart of Orlando’s world‑famous attractions, dining, shopping, and entertainment. Everything you could want is just moments away.

What makes this property unique

Our home is sumptuously decorated, designed to offer a true sense of quality and comfort for families and groups alike. It’s a genuine home‑from‑home — a place where everyone can come together, yet still enjoy their own space whenever they wish.

One of the standout features of our property is the professionally installed, beautifully designed interior games room, a space we’ve created with real care and attention. Every detail throughout the home has been thoughtfully considered to meet the high standards our guests expect.

We take great pride in maintaining the property to an immaculate standard, visiting regularly to ensure it remains in perfect condition for both ourselves and our guests. We are confident that our home will exceed your expectations of what a vacation rental can and should offer — a welcoming, high‑quality environment for all to enjoy.
