About Vacation Rentals in Orlando
Orlando,
Florida, 'The City Beautiful', began as an army outpost, and later grew into an agricultural hub of cattle, cotton, and citrus plantations. Orlando's importance lies in the abundance of theme parks, and its proximity to
Cape Canaveral in the
Central Atlantic Coast. Undoubtedly, the most famous attraction of Orlando is
Disney World. It all began as an investor's dream in the 1960s, when Walt Disney bought thousands of acres of farmland, orange groves, and swamp marshes. Disney had the idea to transform the area into an oasis where travelers could take their families and live out the kind of fantasies he had as a child. Disney World began fulfilling those dreams in 1971, when it was opened.
Rival theme parks such as Sea World and Universal Studios are out there to help the vacationer live out experiences of swimming with sharks, fighting pirates, traveling to the moon, escaping the T-Rex, etc. But Disney World alone draws 40 million visitors a year! Orlando also features more than 80 golf courses that suit players of all skill levels. Orlando also offers bass fishing opportunities. Lake Conway is a 1,700-acre playground for boating, water skiing, diving, wind surfing, and parasailing. Fifty miles east of Orlando is Cape Canaveral and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and the John F. Kennedy Space Center. The Disney Orlando Area also holds other getaways such as
Kissimmee,
Mount Dora, etc.
