We stayed in Indian Creek in November and had a great experience there. Very close to Outback restaurant and Black Angus right down the street. Plenty of other places to eat including sit down and fast food. As for groceries, there's a Publix down 192 a little (a mile or two at most) which is less expensive than the market in the Outback shopping center. The shortcut to WDW is on Sherbreth road.
Hope this helps...enjoy!
