Shortcut?

[Randa]

We are staying at Westgate Lakes June 3rd through the 10th. It is on 10000 Turkey Lake Road off of Sand Lake Road. I think we have to take I-4 down to WDW. Does anyone know how long this takes? If there's any constructionn there or is there's a shortcut to a back entrance? I thought I read that somewhere. Thanks. Leaving in30 days and gettin real excited.

The "North Entrance" to WDW is no picnic to get to. I've had to make that trip before and felt that I-4 was the best way to go.

Since I don't know the answer to this, I thought I would bump you back to page one

You can take Sand Lake Road West until it pretty much dead ends at Apopka-Vineland Road. (It doesn't actually dead end, but if you kept going you would be in a subdivision). Anyway, at Apopka-Vineland you would make a left turn and head south. You would be on this road for a few miles and then would actually be approaching the Crossroads and the Entrance to Downtown Disney from the North. You will see the big signs for Walt Disney World at Hotel Plaza Blvd. You would be making a right here on Hotel Plaza Blvd. From there you could follow the signs to where ever you wanted to go in WDW. There is a different 'back door' entrance but it is pretty confusing and I don't recall the street names. Anyway, you may want to consider taking Apopka-Vineland road if you plan on going to or from WDW during rush hour. I-4 can be a mess at those times.
