Best bet for a 4-bedroom close to parks?

[Stasieki]

Is Windsor Hills the best best to stay in a 4 bedroom and be close to the parks? We are open to a house or condo, but 4 bedroom condos are hard to come by. Thanks!

Here's a map of the area and you can see which subdivisions are close: Windsor Hills, Formosa Gardens Estates, Oak Island Cove, Rolling Hills, Indian Creek, Emerald Island, Windsor Palms and even Encantada and Sunset Lakes are all close. WH is #1 and the others are 8 - 17. You'll have to zoom in a bit for a good look.

Thank you so much - that is a great map. It looks like Windsor Hills may be the most "resort like" community - do you know that for sure?

Yes we've stayed there 3 times and it has a great pool area, nice playground, clubhouse fitness room, sundry store, mini theatre besides tennis courts, putting green etc. This stuff is free to those that stay there.
We've also stayed at Emerald Island and it is also nice. Their pool is not as big but they have a tiki bar which has drinks and lunch menu, there's a walking trail and small playground and sports courts. There are also planned activities for adults and kids. WH doesn't have planned activities or a pool bar. Both properties are very well looked after. Since Emerald Island is a couple of years older the vegetation is more mature.

Cane Island has 4 bedroom condos, they are about 5 miles east of Disney on 192.
Prices I've seen for this property are very good too!

Another great place is www.homes4uu.com

We also have an Orlando MagicCard (free) which gives us great deals. We got a 3 bedroom house with a pool for $89per night.

Depending on when you are planning on going, there's a resort right in the disney gates with a free shuttle to Magic Kingdom, Epcot, MGM, and Animal Kingdom. I say when, because we own points at this timeshare that has many 4 bedroom presidential suites. We're not planning on vacationing this year but we'd like to rent out our points. Let me know what dates you're looking for and I can check to see what's available.
You can mail me @ msbagley@yahoo.com
and there are pictures at Bonnetcreek.com
Thanks for letting me share

Windsor HIlls is very resort like. We loved it so much we are going back for a second time. We received so many quotes and the rates were really good, but have decided to go back through the same owner.

Princess Belle who did you rent from? Are the owners willing to budge on rates at all?

I originally found them through windsorhillsrent.com when we travelled last time. There is review for the Gigha Villa on here from another happy traveller.
