Orlando Costco

[VAfamily1998]

It looks like the closest Costco to Orlando is the one at 2101 Water Bridge Blvd,Orlando, Florida, 32837

We will be arriving early on a Sunday. We want to head immediately to DHS, and were thinking of leaving the park at about 4 or 4:30 ish and driving the that Costco to pick up a few things, then checking into our hotel (we are staying off site at a suite where we will have a full kitchen) Costco closes at 6:00 pm on Sundays...do you think leaving DHS at 4:30 pm (we will be parked in the parking lot) is allowing enough time?

Has anyone ever been to this Costco? Map quest puts it at about 15 minutes away from DHS, but is there anything I need to know that Mapquest doesn't take into account, that might make it more difficult to get to or take much longer than 15 minutes? Anything else I need to know?

Thanks

I think that's the closest Costco. Fairly easy to get to. Here's the route I'd take: go to I-4, take I-4 East, take exit 71 (Central Florida Parkway/SeaWorld exit), turn right at end of exit onto Central Florida Parkway and continue about four miles to Orange Blossom Trail, turn right onto OBT, Costco is on the right just after the car dealership. That's probably about 12 to 14 miles.

So, I'd be rather suspicious of it taking 15 minutes. With all the traffic lights and but light traffic I think you could make it in about 25 minutes. But at that time of day there's usually a lot of local traffic and I'd expect more than 30 minutes for that trip.
