Crescent Lakes, located in Poinciana and part of the Kissimmee area, is in an up-market residential area, just off Highway 192 East of Disney in Orlando Florida.
Crescent Lakes has the best of both worlds in Orlando - close to all the major theme parks,
yet has the privacy you desire for a relaxing holiday. For those of you who enjoy nature,
there is a beautiful conservation area just a few minutes away. This includes nature walks
where you can see exotic wildlife, birds and many species of plants and shrubs.
Additionally, if you fancy a spot of fishing many of the lakes in the area are well stocked with fish,
including the one in our back garden, which is free for our guests to use.
Activities in the neighbourhood include walking/jogging, golf, horse riding, airboat rides, hiking, fishing, nature trails and children's play areas. You can find more details on these activities under 'Attractions / Parks'.
