That’s right, cue the vacation vibes
The Space:
GREAT LOCATION NEAR THEME PARKS
Storey Lake House is located in a gated vacation home community in Kissimmee, Florida. We are tucked away from the crowds of Orlando while still being near all the theme park fun:
☀ SeaWorld Orlando – 5.2 miles
☀ Disney World theme parks – 6.5 to 9.6 miles
☀ Universal Studios theme parks – 9.7 miles
Additionally, Orlando International Airport is 11.2 miles away.
COMMUNITY AMENITIES
One of the biggest perks of staying at Storey Lake House is all our neighborhood amenities – and yes, they are free. Spend time with your family at the community swimming pool or float away in the lazy river. There’s also a splash pad, sand volleyball, tennis and basketball courts, and a fitness center. You can also grab snacks and sundries at the marketplace. Or enjoy drinks by the pool.
Better yet, everything is two streets over from our townhome – just a short walk away.
PATIO & POOL
Our patio is an oasis where you can unwind after a day of theme park fun. Relax in our cushioned chairs or hang out in the swimming pool with the whole family. We have arm floaties, noodles and pool towels at the ready. There’s even a built-in bench so you can relax in the water with a tropical cocktail in hand.
For your comfort, we provide a child safety fence for the pool area and a screen around the entire patio to keep bugs away.
LIVING, KITCHEN & DINING AREAS
Our open-concept living, kitchen and dining area is made for hanging out, just like at home.
Kick back on our gray sectional sofa which seats at least six. It has toss pillows and a yellow throw so you can get really cozy. A picture window brings in natural light while a 3-light mini chandelier offers a nice glow at night. Our smart TV is great for watching your shows and movies. You can also gather around the coffee table to play a board game like Monopoly.
Our kitchen is filled with bright white cabinets and stainless steel appliances. Cookware and dishware? Check. We have everything you’ll need to make healthy snacks for the kids or your family’s favorite dinners. There’s also enough counter space for everyone to pitch in. And four bar stools for those who want to take it easy. In the morning, we’re happy to provide coffee and a selection of teas for you.
Over in the dining area, a picture window looks out to the patio and towering palm trees. Enjoy meals together at our 8-seater wooden table – it has Florida vibes with light blue placemats and silver bowls that resemble clam shells.
4 BEDROOMS
Our four bedrooms are peaceful retreats where you’ll get a good night’s sleep. Modern platform beds come with comfy mattresses, throws and lots of pillows. Other homey features include nightstands with lamps, accent rugs and smart TVs in every room. And, of course, there’s a room for the kids with a Mickey Mouse theme.
● Bedroom 1 – 2 Full Beds
● Bedroom 2 – King bed (master), en suite bathroom
● Bedroom 3 – Two twin beds
● Bedroom 4 – 4 Twin Beds
Please note: Bedroom 1 is downstairs and all other bedrooms are upstairs.
3 FULL BATHROOMS
Our three bathrooms give you plenty of space and privacy for your self-care routine. The master bedroom has an en suite bathroom with a double vanity and soaking tub / shower combination – perfect for relaxing baths, or bath time with the kids! The bathroom in the upstairs hallway and the downstairs bath both have walk-in showers.
And for each bathroom, we provide toiletry starter kits that have toilet paper, bar soap, shampoo, conditioner and body wash. We also supply two sets of towels for each guest (bath, hand and face).
