Notes from my stay October 9 - 16, 2004
2 bedroom, 2 bath unit in the north villageclose to splash lagoon and on a golf course. We were very close to the back exit. Publix grocery store was VERY close if you went out back exit (I think it evens sits on OLCC property).
UNIT: Foyer hall, then to the left2nd bedroom with 2 beds (queens or doubles), tv, closet, dresser. Laundry closet with full size washer and dryer; bathroom with shower but no tub. To the rightmaster bedroom with closet, tv, dresser, chair, desk and master bathroom. Bathroom had whirlpool tubno jets at your backonly on your sides; shower stall, sink and toilet with another door.
Kitchen: fully equipped: stove/oven, microwave, fridge, coffeemaker, dishwasher, double sink, utensils, etc.
Dining area: table with 4 chairs and a bench built into the wall
Living room: L shaped sofa, chair, 2 bar stools against the kitchen counter, tv and vcr. Door led to screened in porch. Porch had table and 4 chairs.
Splash Lagoon; DGS (31/2 loved it). The Main check in area had an indoor play area for kids but we didnt go there except to check in.
Cleanliness: I sprayed everything with Lysol when we arrived and put a sheet over the couchit just felt dirtynothing specific could just be heavie jeevies plus the fact I found it dark. HOWEVER under the chair in the master bedroom was a luggage tag (from the airport when you check your bags)we drove so dont know how long that was there.
Supplies: Most places weve stayed at supplied us with one box of laundry detergent and one packet of dishwasher detergentOLCC gave us 3 4 of eachso we never ran out (at no charge).
Wildlife: DS caught a lizard in his room (second bedroom) Monday morning. He and DGS released it into the wild. After DS left to go home a day later, and I was alone with DGS, I saw another lizard in the dining room. Called Security to come release him lady who answered the call kept asking if there was a SNAKE in the unit. UMM..NOOOOO but do you have problems with that? When I finally convinced her it was a lizard she kept askingand you need security to come out? YESbut by the time they got there I had already liberated the little guy. The security guy thought it was funny and I probably was the joke of the security staff the rest of the week.
Shortcut to Disney: From 192 turn LEFT onto Black Lake Road, ends at Sherberth Roadturn LEFT onto Sherberth. At first light turn RIGHT. Follow signs to wherever you need to go.
Shortcut off turnpike: 27 (as told to me on the DIS). At this end of 192 it was well worth taking 27 through Clermont from the turnpike. I avoided I4 and all that trafficHOWEVER if you are further down 192 this may not be the best option for you.
