DH and I have a condo in the Artisan Park section of Celebration. An oft-heard joke is that everyone in Celebration knows exactly when it's 9:12pm (because you hear the reports of the Illuminations finale fireworks). Seriously, we really like the place; really walkable, nice restaurants, great farmer's market on Sundays. It may look Stepfordish, but the people right around us are very friendly and much more considerate than our former neighbors in an upscale suburb in upstate NY (noise from barking dogs, late night cars and motorcycles is practically nonexistent). Yards are tiny, but we're empty nesters so that wasn't an issue, and the parks are quite nice. One thing you should know, though, is that Celebration is made up of several small "villages" with their own homeowners associations and facilities. Ours has a clubhouse with a small restaurant, outdoor kitchen, fitness center and pool but you need a membership card to get in (i.e.no "pool hopping" to other "villages").OKWLover, can you hear the fireworks (not the soundtrack, just the fireworks themselves) ?
