Explore Kissimmee from vacation home rentals
Set just south of Orlando in Florida's Osceola County, Kissimmee's population has doubled twice since Walt Disney World opened nearby in 1971. Once a rural outpost where citrus groves and cattle ranches flourished, the city has maintained a sense of the past with a historic downtown, antique shops, and vintage amusement parks. Its sunny weather and wetlands make it a destination for anyone seeking warm temps, whether you prefer a weekend relaxing poolside or a more vigorous outdoor adventure. Its family attractions and close proximity to Disney make it a draw for the young and the young-at-heart.

Places to visit near Kissimmee vacation rentals

Green Meadows Farm is a peaceful countryside getaway where you can pet the animals, milk a cow, and have a picnic on the grass. Gatorland is a theme park with a playful, vintage feel.

Activities near Kissimmee vacation homes
Kissimmee's historic downtown is the center of commercial life and offers a mix of family-owned businesses, shops, and restaurants. Consider a Kissimmee vacation rental within walking distance of Main Street, where you can enjoy breakfast at an outdoor cafe before deciding how you'll take in the surrounding wetland wilderness. Eco-tours via horseback, zipline, or airboat are just a few of your options. You'll likely have the chance to spot alligators, black bears, and dozens of bird species. Nighttime helicopter tours over the city provide a unique thrill, as the region's theme park lights twinkle below.
Best time to travel to Kissimmee vacation homes
You don't have to worry about the cold in Kissimmee, even in winter. January temperatures average in the 70s, and skies are typically sunny. The city is crowded during the Christmas holiday but otherwise peaceful, and you might score a Kissimmee vacation rental at a low rate. Spring weather is mild, with highs between the 60s and 80s, and rental prices are still low. Summer is the busy season and also the hottest, so look for lodging with air-conditioning. Temperature-wise, autumn is as lovely as spring, but it's also the height of hurricane season, so check local forecasts.
Blow a kiss to a bald eagle from your Kissimmee kayak
Set on the headwaters of the Everglades, the largest subtropical wilderness in the U.S., and on the northern border of Lake Tohopekaliga, your Kissimmee vacation rental is surrounded by wetlands and animal habitats. Many of these are protected in Nature Conservancy's Disney Wilderness Preserve, 15 miles south of Kissimmee. It's an 11,500-acre home to gopher tortoises, bald eagles, and sandhill cranes. The Shingle Creek Regional Park is another natural wonder, this one right in the city itself, with rivers for kayaking and canoeing, and nature trails for spotting birds.
