About this property
Lakeside in Oakwater Resort
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 8, 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!

The unit has both pros and cons. It has very nice furniture and upgraded appliances. It is actually 4 miles to the entrance of WDW, small increase in distance than that listed but with heavy traffic, it did add 10-15 mins extra to our time to get to the parks. The price was very affordable. However the things we did not like were when you enter the unit you immediately go up 18 stairs because of the integral garage. The carpeting was very dirty which gave a very unclean feeling to the unit even though everything else was clean. There was an open hole in the guest bathroom where a towel bar was ripped out of the wall. The inside of the master bathroom door also had a hole in it from someone opening the door too wide and the shower sprayer hose was either corroding or had a water build up on them. Towels were very thin and need to be replaced.

Nice but lacked communication
This place was wonderful and beautiful home very clean perfect spot to drive to Disney world parks which was super convenient for us, I’d definitely stay again only thing I really didn’t like is that they never answer their phone, if I message they take a while or long time to get back at client. We had issues with our bath tub over flowing I called the number listed on the email no answer.

Great place, convent location
This place was great- and the location was so convenient. It had all the things we needed for our stay, which allowed us to eat in and save some money on eating out. On our second day there we did see one ant and one cockroach in the kitchen, but we live in Texas- we are no strangers to bugs- made my hubs kill the suckers and didn’t see any after that. Also, went to dry clothes and noticed a build up of condensation in the closet from the clothes drying. The hose vent was not connected to the dryer. Lastly, while packing up on our last night there, I made sure to remind my daughter to check under the bed to make sure nothing of hers unintentionally got stuck- she discovered some lucky charms, I’m assuming from someone that had stayed there previously. All around a great, affordable stay.

Stayed 5 nights mid March 2025. Party was 4 adults and 3 children. Property was conveniently located to Parks and other amenities. Clean and as shown in the pictures. The entire living area is on 2nd floor as they pointed out, so if you can’t do stairs, it would not be the best. Parking in the driveway in front is very convenient. The unit is very nice, we had good communication with the managers, and enjoyed our stay! Thank you!!

Perfect for Disney Vacation
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.
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!!

This gated community is easy to get to off of 192. It is close to the parks and an easy drive. The condo is roomy, the screened in porch overlooking the lake was nice for morning coffee. It was well equipped and appointed for a family visit.
