Are there many places to eat on the shortcut between the parks and this resort???I am thinking of renting here and just trying to figure out what was convenient and close. Is there a grovery store close??? Thanks
 
There is nothing on Sherberth/Entry Point Rd (the shortcut) itself. Everything is on Rt 192. Make a right on 192 coming back and you'll find a Denny's, Cracker Barrel, Red Lobster, fast food, and lots of other restaurants(these are just the ones I remember, there are LOTS) within the first mile or so. Publix is about 3 miles down the road on the right(liquor store next door), and there are several drugstores along the way. There is a circle K mini mart in the gas station right at the Sherberth / 192 intersection when you cross. Finding places to eat, buy groceries, etc, close by won't be any problem. The traffic on 192 can be heavy but it moves along so you won't be waiting in traffic jams. Don't worry too much about such stuff, just ask for the FAQ sheet at the WH clubhouse desk(we stopped and got our prox cards right off on the way in) after getting your car pass at the security gate and you'll be all set. Have a great vacation!
 
The first big grocery store would be in the Formosa Gardens Shopping Plaza, about 4 min from WH ( heading west on 192). It's called MarketPlace ( Winn Dixie ). It's more expensive than the Publix that's a couple of miles further west on 192 and the Walmart that's at the north exit for 27 (at the west end of 192 ) , about 10 min from WH. There's also an Outback Steakhouse and Giordano's Pizza in the Plaza, and a Chinese restaurant also. But as 4eyed said there's many restaurants, fast food, drugstores, conv. stores, tourist shops etc within 5 min east or west on 192. The hard part won't be finding a place to eat it will be choosing which place to eat at.

Gosh sorry, not sure where that is! I know the WHR area, Disney...and the major stops up and down I-4 really well, oh..and parts of 27..but that's about it. I still have to mapquest things or look them up a lot if I go outside of the areas I know well, or ask a local for advice on where good places to go are...like shopping malls..hardware stores..those sorts of things. Oh..one other tip..there's no video rental places anywhere near Windsor Hills, so we always suggest bringing a few DVDs along just in case! (I spent an hour one night driving ALL over and couldn't find one anywhere!)
 
OK for the record, I mapquested the Giordanos - It's in lake buena vista, 13 minutes from WH. Basically: I-4 to 535N straight to S Apopka Vineland Rd/435N.

The other one is definetely more convenient but since I already have the GC.....
 
The local one delivers to Windsor Hills which is nice... we always do a pizza night where the kids swim and we order in pizza and watch a movie or something together..always fun!
