Davenport for Disney!

Davenport and the US 27 is growing at a fabulous rate, whilst maintaining a certain “upscale” feel about it that makes you glad you are staying there while you are enjoying the delights that Central Florida has to offer. We were first driven to the area by the Realtor to show us some properties to consider, that was back in 2003, and even then I was little bemused as to where we were going, as I counted myself as quite an Orlando savvy person. The road, “seemed “ to be, primarily a stretch of road that locals may use to head to Tampa, there appeared to be little on it apart from the odd garage, or restaurant. Though Publix was just due to open, and Walmart was down at Haines City. There were endless miles of Orange Groves. My how things have fantastically evolved!

Having been taken to a number of communities near US 27, we couldn’t resist the community that we eventually chose. Wow! ! Am I pleased for so many reasons now! In 3 short years, the place has evolved at a perfect pace with the most wonderful enhancements that just serve the area to make it, in our opinion, the place to be! !

There are now more communities beside us, within minutes of our home you can now shop at 3 different well known supermarkets, reach the 192, I4 and hospital easily. Though the beautiful Orange groves had to go to make way for the progress made in the area , I , for one am very excited about the way the place has developed. And there is even more spectacular improvements to come soon as Posner Park (0n the old Broadwalk and Baseball site), begins it’s evolution. Where a shopping mall and cinema for starters are due to be based.

Apart from how beautiful all the communities are, it should be pointed out, from the vacationers point of view the US 27 is a great place to be, Disney is very easily reached in a matter of minutes , the I-4 is close by enabling you to get to the other attractions like Universal Studios and Islands of adventure or Seaworld and the many different malls that there are now, and there are many Golf courses right on the doorstep. The coast is a mere 50 minutes away too!

Staying on the communities of the US 27, you are offered not just newer and up to date villas, but also easy access to the things you have more than likely traveled to Orlando to visit! ! It is certainly a perfect location to be staying. Once you have returned from the hustle and bustle of the parks and attractions when you return to your vacation home you can relax knowing that you are close enough to enjoy the attractions as and when you plan to, but be far enough away to feel your villa is where you need to be to get that “chill out” time that certainly us parents need!

Whilst the US 27 undoubtedly remains the lesser known relative of the 192 area, it has sure come along, and the communities and facilities are just perfect in every way ! Don’t shy away from this most pleasant and endearing highway! !
