The owners were very helpful and responsive through VRBO messages. We have stayed at Orange Lake several times during spring break. The location is very convenient, with restaurants, groceries, and other conveniences very close by. It’s also about 30 minutes from any Orlando theme park.
We made a request for a specific location through the owner and the resort granted that request so we were very happy with that. The condo itself is perfect for a family. The separate bedrooms, living room space, and kitchen are a win! The resort is clean and beautiful, and we enjoy playing tennis and basketball on their courts, plus golf is right there too.
The only cautions we would share: the restaurant service has been not so great since COVID, probably just short-staffed like everyone else, so getting drinks and food takes up a lot of your time. They also sell refillable cups for the Pop machines, but they were out of carbonation and/or flavors for most of our stay, so that turned out to be a poor purchase for us. They also sell a 3-day pass for putt putt, and they gave the kids wristbands which we thought were their passes, but that turned out to be wrong, so we lost the money there too. None of these are deal-breakers, but are good things to know so you don’t lose out with the extra stuff.
The stay, the resort, the owners - all great! Have a good time!
