Orange Park here too!

Orlando resident here - takes about 10 minutes (depending on lights) to get from my apartment to all of the WDW DVC resorts except for VWL which takes more like 15 minutes. I love being able to take a mini-vacation so easily.

Over here in Clearwater, Florida. Not too far away at all. Joined when we lived out of state.

We live in Ocala and are about 80 miles away from Disney, we visit about 6 times a year and split some stays at Sea World but stay at Disney.

We are in Jacksonville - a 2hr trip if I drive or 2.5 if the wife drives.

Were at the Swan last weekend and are taking another quick trip and staying at SSR on cash next weekend. Have to get our fix in before the summer. We don't visit WDW during the summer so our next trip won't be until Aug.

Hi all!

Smart move! We don't go during the summer either. Our next trip isn't until October...4-night stay at OKW. Man, that's 150 days away. Bummer!

Orlando (Ocoee) here. Wifey and I joined in January and have a Memorial Day weekend booked at the BCV. We finally realized it was better to own DVC if we were going to keep doing our mini vacations.

We finally realized it was better to own DVC if we were going to keep doing our mini vacations.

The mini-vacations are exactly why we joined. Nothing like going down to WDW for a few days to get away from the "rat race" and recharge the batteries.

We used to live down south in Greenacres (No Laughing Please) which is near West Palm. So hiya to all those from South Fla!

First post. We live in Land O Lakes, just North of Tampa.

It is an hour and 15 minutes, unless one of the kids forces a pit stop in Lakeland!

We joined in January. Mother's day begins 3 nights at SSR with another week coming up around Labor Day.

I am not there yet, but we are moving to Orlando on August 4th . I can't wait to be close to the world all the time.
