We Love Orange Lake! Nothing is perfect, but for 99% of the time it will please even the most critical person. There are clean pools for all ages, great food at River Island, great golf (90 holes) for every ability, and we wait for their phone call when we arrive so we can catch up on all the new things that have been added since our last stay ...

A Great Resort, With Some Flaws
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/22/08
I have been an owner at Orange Lake for a number of years. This resort has a number of amenities that make it highly desireable. However, it does have its drawbacks, as well.
In the years that I have been vacationing here, I have seen check in take anywhere from 5 minutes to nearly 3 hours. Even though your unit won't be ready until after ...

WORST PLACE ON EARTH!!!!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/14/08
My husband & I bought our first week of timeshare here at OLCC back in 1999. It started out to be a great place to go for vacation, so in 2001, we bought another week. Boy, were we suckers!!!!
The maintenance fees are outrageous!!! Plus they call you and hound you every month with phone calls several times a day, stating that "it is ...

Great Resort but doe not buy from Resort
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/14/08
This is a great family resort. This has been by second time visiting the resort and we loved loved. We stayed in the West Village which are the older units but they have all been renovated. The East and NOrth Village units are much bigger and nicer. I would not go to any of the Timeshare shares presentations. I you like the place and interested in ...
i am a time share owner at orange lake. we owned a two bedroom villa for 4 years then upgraded to a 3 bedroom. we love it so much we consider it a home away from home. if you have a negitive experience you must be a negetive person and like to complain. I am going to florida with family in january and staying at another resort but we will be ...
The villas were the worst part of the resort. The staff was all very friendly; the grounds were very clean and kept up. The pools, lazy river, putt putt, arcade etc were all really nice but... There was an expensive fee to use the internet ($6.00 an hour or $10.00 a day) and it was only available in the "internet cafe" which is located in ...

Never Again
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/28/08
This place is the worse resort that Florida has to offer. Customer service sucks here. We arrived to room in the East Village with trash outside and a broken toilet. Our bags were supposed to be placed in the room since we arrived early and they held them and they were not of course. Every day was a new journey of disappointments. While River ...

Have been at Orange Lake since 1991
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/21/08
We love Orange Lake..it has five star accommodations. The restaurants are wonderful...there is something for everyone. The suites, grounds, Golf courses and pools are in perfect condition. It is a great place for kids and adults alike...
We wait for March to come around from the time we get home until the time comes for us to go again...
Well you can not please everyone. Some of the reviews are very negative, we stayed there last week and it was fantastic, you do not have to drive everywhere on site, ther is a bus, that runs around the site all day, up to 11.00pm. we loved it so much that we did buy, and we are not disapointed, even though we now have a condo over the road, we will be back to this resort. great space and walk.

Stay away
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/07/08
The grouds were beautiful and the location fine. However, do not go to the sales pitch it is not worth any thing they will give you and it will be much longer than you expect. They take you away from your car and you feel trapped!!
