Orange Lake

[spiceycat]

As per your directions, which is EXACTLY what I was looking for, after you see CSR on your left, do you make the very next left for Epcot,studios and MK. And would you make the very next right, after seeing CSR to AK?
After you make the left, or right turn (after CSR) is it well marked to get to whatever park you are headed to??


Thanks in advance, we will be ther April 26 .

Karen

P.S. I really need GOOD directions as I have NO sense of direction.
Thanks again

you are right next to CSR (it is on the left)

this might be easier when the road deadends - take the left for Epcot, Mk and studios - and the right for AK.

there will be signs later - right now I think the signs say the resorts are located this way or that?

now you are on this road for quite a while. don't remember how long - but the speed limit for most of it as 35mph - this was slow.....

Sorry to be such a PIA but I'm really worried about getting lost, as I so often do there.
Anyway, is it the very next left, or right if going to AK, after passing CSR? and then will I see signs that will direct me to the parks?


Snoella, CSR is Coronado Springs Resort

Thanks again,

Karen

getting to AK is a little more complicated - you turn right out of (Western Way-the road that links 417 to WDW) - then when you see the overpass - you are again turning right on to it(Osceola Parkway) - yes there are definitely signs directing you to AK. If you forget and kept going - you will just end up in All Star Resort - the guard can direct you.

so don't worry about it


to get to Epcot or MK - you turn left (out of Western way) to E - then Buena Vista Drive the bridge turn left - this is now World Drive.

to get to Studio - you turn left (out of Western Way) to Buena Vista Drive - stay on this road - the entrance to Studio is on your right (once you are pass the bridge) - it has a sign (it is the second right after the bridge - the first right is a service road)

here is a map to help - but the map does not have 429 or Western way....sorry.

boy talk about being wrong I was saying 417 - well 417 is the connection between the airport and WDW - so very wrong.

this toll road is 429 - also called Western Beltway

the disney exit is Western Way -

sorry about that.

 

[spiceycat]

this map actually has 429 and Western way (the part that is in disney)

How can I get from Orange lake to...

1. Fort Wilderness

2. Yacht and Beach Club

two ways

first is turn left on US 192 - go under the overpass (429) turn left at Black Lake - then turn left again at Sherberth Rd - then at the traffic light - turn right - shortly you will be on Osceloa Parkway - for Yc & BC - would stay in the left lane until you reach Pop -( WWoS is on the right) - turn left here (if you too far you will see I4 & Gaylord (big Hotel) just turn around)

go to where the road dead ends (second traffic light - first was Pop ) - turn left - then at the next traffic light turn right - on this road is first BW, then BC, then YC.


other way
turn left on US 192 - take 429 to WDW (Western Way exit) - $1.00 I think.
when Western Way deadends turn left - Buena Vista Drive - go over the bridge. at the Swan (okay might be Dolphin) turn left - the YC is the next resort pass these two.

Fort wilderness is a little more difficult but again 2 ways - go like you are going to the MK - but instead of turning left (MK parking lot) - you want the far right lane - turn right - this road will take you pass FW.


the other way
again - turn left on US192 - turn left on Black road, turn left on Sherberth Road - turn right on Osceola Parkway, turn left on Victory Way - right on Buena Vista Drive under a overpass, at the traffic light turn left - Bonnet Creek Parkway, when this road deadends - turn left Visa Blvd - FW parking lot will be on the right in about a half mile.
