    Bass Lake is situated close to the junction of the 192, it is a pleasant community that is part residential and part short term let villas which gives an ideal mix and a easy and laid back sort of feeling to the community. It also gives peace of mind that there is always someone around to watch over your villa which is useful if you are the owner, but the same if you are renting the villa.

    Bass Lake is a private gated community with two swimming pools (one heated all year round), hot spa and club house with gym, dance floor, pool tables and library.

    It is around a thirty-minute drive from Orlando International Airport and about an hour drive from Sanford Airport so is not to far from your arrival point. A ten-minute drive will get you to the Disney parks and around 20 to 25 minutes will get you up into the International Drive area with all the parks and facilities such as Wet and Wild, Universal and Sea World, of course the worlds largest McDonalds is there for the kids.

    There is a bus service that runs up and down International Drive and this could be used to see where you want to visit and hop on and off as required.

    Bass LakeĀ  is a superb area to base yourself as it is only an hour drive to NASA, just over an hour to the Coco beach, and the same to Daytonna where the beach is lovely sand and goes on for miles.

    Closer to the estate and down on the 192, about a five minute drive away you have Kissimmee Old Town where there is shopping and a fun fair and every Saturday a vintage car parade. Just a little further is Celebration, the Disney owned town where there is always something happening and some good restaurants, and on the 192 itself, a plethora of restaurants from all you can eat places like the Golden Coral, to Steakhouses like Logans.

    A couple of miles from the community is a Publix supermarket and even closer is a large 24 hour Wal-Mart.

    So, the community is well situated for visiting all of the areas that you would want to in Florida, but far enough away from the glare and sounds of the parks to relax in the peace that surrounds the community. There are also several golf courses closeby should you wish to partake in this activity.

    If you would like a peaceful holiday, but be able to visit the parks and restaurants on offer without to much trouble, look at Bass Lake.
