Beautiful 3 bed condo over the lake in Oakwater Resort - just 2 miles from WDW.

Welcome to Lakeside, a quite beautiful 3 bedroom second floor condo right over the lake in the highly sought after Oakwater Resort. We have a great selection of privately owned condos and townhouses available in the Disney area, each designed with your vacation enjoyment in mind, and Lakeside is a perfect example of that.

Why Lakeside

About a 2 minute walk to the main clubhouse, pool and amenities
Less than 2 miles from Walt Disney World
All resort amenities are included in the price
Features a King size master suite
Full size washer and dryer in unit
Free high speed Wi-Fi and upgraded cable package
Gated resort style community
Shops and restaurants within easy walking distance
All towels, linens and crockery provided

Very competitively priced for a home of his quality, this well appointed condo offers fantastic value for money providing, as it does, tremendous resort style amenities, in a secure gated community, with a great location just 2 miles away from Walt Disney World.

Lakeside is a 3 bedroom / 2 bathroom second floor condo in the very under-rated, but equally attractive, Oakwater Resort. With 1427 sq ft of living area to enjoy it provides plenty of room to relax, while the resort amenities provide a host of options for those who are more energetic! But there is denying what the real highlight is here, and that is an unobstructed view of the beautiful Oakwater Lake, such a tranquil setting, which can be enjoyed from your own private patio. Very few units in here can boast that, though there is much more to Lakeside than just the view. As you would expect, this lovely condo also comes extremely well equipped.

Thoughtfully furnished throughout, recently renovated in most rooms, style is very much the name of the game here. This is a very spacious condo, decorated in pastel shades, and featuring nice touches like marble counter tops, mahogany cupboards, stainless steel appliances, modern furniture throughout. Space has been used so well that even though this is only a 3 bedroom unit, it both looks and feels much bigger and has everything you could need. It sleeps 8 people comfortably, and though we do prefer to restrict occupancy to 6 we can accept 8 here due to the two sets of bunk beds in the third bedroom.

Talking of the bedrooms, in this home they consist of one King size master which has full en-suite facilities, a Queen size room, and the bunk bed room which has 2 sets of twin beds, serviced, along with the Queen, by the second full bathroom directly opposite. The King and twin bedrooms have cable TV, the Queen has a fire TV. We should add too that all towels and linens are provided for your stay, another great feature offered in your home from home.

Lakeside also enjoys a compact kitchen, spacious living room and dining area, and a laundry room with a full size washer and dryer. The main living area features a large flat screen television, perfect for watching a family movie, and with an upgraded cable package too, there are plenty of those available. *Please note that the home also has high speed wireless internet access, offered complimentary to all Evergreen guests.

After enjoying a memorable day at the theme parks everyone will surely appreciate the well stocked kitchen with a dishwasher, microwave, full size refrigerator and freezer, stove, coffee machine, toaster, waste disposal on offer as well as all the hand held appliances you would expect. With all kitchen utensils and crockery provided too, and a dining area with ample seating for 6, everything is there for you to both prepare, and enjoy, a home cooked family meal.

A patio door from the living area leads onto the private patio furnished with a table and chairs, from where you can enjoy the view over the lake and all the wildlife that it attracts. Facing East, you can enjoy the gentle sun in the early morning, when the lake is arguably at it's most stunning, perhaps enjoying a spot of breakfast as you prepare for your next adventure!

To the front of the property is the entry way, which leads to a flight of stairs that you would have to negotiate to get to the second floor where the living space is. We mention that in the name of full disclosure as those who have difficulty with stairs may not find this condo a good fit. For everyone else though it is a great option and has many things to recommend it, not least of which is a private one car garage and a driveway to park your car!

Lakeside has proven itself to be incredibly popular with our guests over the years for reasons that are clearly apparent, which just emphasizes why this is such an excellent choice for all the family, from those who want superb resort style amenities, to families just looking to relax, to those who just love nature and want to engage their senses in this great setting.

We really hope you have enjoyed viewing Lakeside and look forward so much to welcoming you on your next vacation. Your family will certainly thank you for it, and so will we!

*Don't forget we offer a whole host of extra services including recommendations for attraction tickets, barbecues, baby
equipment and much more to help you get the most from your Evergreen stay!

Excellent location, 10 mins away from all 4 Disney World parks. A straight shot from around the corner. Walmart is right next door too which was very convenient for buying food to cook and other necessities. The condo itself was spacious, well furnished, and pristine. Would definitely stay here again given the opportunity.

Nice to stay and Great getaway
This property was very nice to stay for the four days! The locations was close to shopping, close to our other party that stay at a Disney Value Resort! There was PLENTY of room and the setup was SPOT ON! The beds were comfy and rooms very spacious! I enjoyed this location ALOT and would HIGHLY recommend to anyone visiting the Disney area! We had the smallest of issues, one, I did know how to get the bedroom television to work:)....silly on my part and the shower drain was a little slow to let the water out, but again, these were the smallest of things. Our overall stay outweighed these issues!!

Kitchen was okay and basically stocked with what we needed. The king master bed was great and we found very comfortable. Master bath was fine. The couch in the living room is in need of replacement. Carpets could probably be updated to a more modern flooring and easier to clean. We loved the patio area with the nice view of the water. Morning coffee was always great. The dryer takes an awfully long time to dry clothes but we could live with that. We would also suggest you check up on your cleaning company! When we first vacuumed in the first week the carpet and flooring were filthy! And the main bath needs an overall cleaning as the tub and shower had a scum all over it. Overall with a good cleaning and some updates it would be an awesome place. The resort is great, the pool and area awesome, and location superb.. We would have loved to talk to the owners directly..

Great location but disappointed in cleanliness and maintenance
We stayed at this condo for a trip to Disney with the kids. The location was very close and convenient to the Disney parks, shopping, and restaurants. The community was nice and well maintained, including amenities. It appears the owner has done a great job selecting and setting up this condo, but maintenance has fallen behind. As you walk in the condo appears clean, well decorated, and nicely staged. As we unpacked we found the bed sheets were dirty (loose hairs and debris), no fitted sheet on the queen bed, several slow draining sinks / showers, several light bulbs burned out, damaged blinds / curtain rods, ash / wrappers on the balcony, and crusted food on some of the plates. The king bed was comfortable, but mattresses / pillows on the other beds were old and uncomfortable. The front door lock did not always work properly. It would not always re-lock after opening (we have the same lock on one of our VRBO rental units and know how the lock works). We contacted the management company about the cleanliness and maintenance items. They responded immediately and offered to send people out to correct. We elected to wash the sheets and dishes ourselves (not how we wanted to start a vacation, but wanted to ensure they were clean). We appreciate the management company quickly offering to address the issues, but were disappointed in the quantity and severity of the issues at our arrival. The check in process was very quick and easy. The instructions were clear. There was an instruction to register vehicles with the clubhouse, but we didn’t expect to have to do this between 10am and 6pm (required us to leave the Disney parks to register our vehicle or be towed).

Loved the location. Right next to Walmart for quick shopping. Pool was nice. Would stay here again. Only minor issue was washer/dryer we planned to use was not ideal. Washer had so much lint in it everything came out covered and dryer just would not dry anything. Kitchen had all necessities needed. Rooms and beds were decent too.

Good Location and some helpful hints
The location of this property is great. Traffic is always an issue in the area. The location is great for the traffic. Because you almost always turn right, it makes it easy to get out. Plus there is a light, which makes it easy to get back in. The house was clean and fictional. A few things to be aware of: 1) You do have to take your trash to the dumpsters at the opposite end of the housing complex. Not a huge deal, but not as convent as putting it at the end of the drive. 2) WIFI - They do have WIFI however it is slow. It averaged about 11mbs download and barely 1mbs upload. If you plan on streaming or working online, realize it will be slow. Most of our streaming to Apple TV had some pixelation and if you got more than 20 feet from the router, the signal just stopped. Not a huge problem unless you are working on vacation. 3) Phone Data - Cell data with in about half mile of the house is poor. Probably because of the enormous amount of people at Walmart. 4) Walmart - If you go to Walmart, plan on 20-40 minutes in line to check out, it is like Black Friday every part of the day. If time is more important then money, go to Target of Publix. 5) Pool - The poole was nice and a good size. One end is zero depth entry while the other is 6ft deep. Makes it fun for the kids. The hot tub was very hot, which was nice in the evening. Pool is a the opposite end of the complex so you do have to walk down to it. 6) Dishes - There were no plastic plates, cups, bowls and only 6 forks. I would recommend bring some plastic dishes or paper plates. Especially if you have kids as all the cups are glass. No idea why there were only 6 forks and about 3 times that in spoons but we made do. Dishwasher is not the best so make sure to wash the dishes by hand before using This is typical for rentals as they tend to get cheap appliances. 7) It is an upstairs condo. If you have trouble with stairs, this is not the place for you. They do have baby gates in the closet if you have little ones so that I nice. 8) Fishing - The pond has some nice bass. We went out for about 30 minutes one evening and got (3) 3lb bass and (1) 5 1/2 pound bass. We didn't have time to do any more but would be fun if you like to fish. 9) Overall the location was the best part. The house was clean and function well. For the price you will be happy with your stay.

The property was nice and. The perfect amount of rooms to accommodate my family. The pool was a huge plus as well as the gym, was a perfect size. The only suggestion I have is the home could use some updates, living room furniture, painting , make sure all light fixtures (bulbs) are working, blinds intact before guests arrive. All and all, it's a nice home to stay while on vacation.

Great location for Disney, beautiful unit
Great unit and location to Disney. It took us @ we minutes to get to the parks and the unit was decorated beautifully. We had ducks who greeted us every morning along with a few babies. Would stay again, Walmart very accessible if you needed anything. We brought our own backup supplies and never needed them but we were only there for an extended weekend. A/C worked fine, that would be my only con. I read the note in regards on how to use the air or it could freeze up. The return vent was so heavy of dust and in the main hall you could not ignore it drew our attention. My husband checked the vent and the filter was being sucked in. That may be something the cleaning crew should inform maintenance of. Still a beautiful and relaxing stay. Oh only other thing the gate code did not work the pool code, someone else had to let us in but not a problem unless we were the only ones at the pool. Last the unit is accessible by stairs only so if you can’t do stairs keep this in mind and the bunk room and master have tv’s but the 3rd spare room does not.
