Holiday rentals in Reunion, Four Corners

In the Four Corners region of central Florida, where Lake, Orange, Polk, and Osceola counties meet, you’ll discover Reunion — an exclusive community filled with luxe homes, lush golf greens, spas, and restaurants. Located fewer than 10 minutes south of Orlando and 35 minutes west of Kissimmee, Reunion makes a convenient base camp for exploring world-famous theme parks, several water parks, and an adventure park with zip lines and aerial challenges.

While Reunion may be lacking in the beach category — the closest stretch of ocean shore is around an hour away — you’ll find numerous lakes in the area, including Lake Tohopekaliga, where you can spend your days on the water boating, jet skiing, swimming, and fishing. The warm Florida weather also provides for particularly delicious locally grown oranges, lemons, and grapefruit, all of which are widely available in markets and restaurants.

Like much of Florida, Reunion has scorching hot summers with plenty of rainfall and high humidity. By contrast, winters tend to be mild and cool, so you’ll definitely want to pack a jacket if you are visiting at this time. Spring and autumn are generally recommended as the best time to stay in a resort villa in Reunion, with temperatures that are warm enough to make water-related activities enjoyable but not too hot to explore theme parks, golf, or hike. Fall is peak time for major food and music festivals in Orlando as well, so be sure to scan local calendars to see if there are exciting events happening during your stay.

Lake Louisa State Park

Approximately 30 minutes north of Reunion, Lake Louisa State Park offers numerous outdoor activities, including horseback riding, fishing, kayaking, and paddle boating. You can rent a bicycle at the park to explore the 11 kilometres of paved roads, and if you’re feeling more like delving into the local terrain, there are another 32 kilometres of unpaved trails for hiking and mountain biking. Perhaps a deer will cross your path, or you’ll spy a bald eagle nesting high in the trees.

Lake Tohopekaliga

Located in the city of Kissimmee, around 35 minutes from Reunion, Lake Tohopekaliga is known throughout the United States for its trophy bass fishing. Bring your fishing gear and rent a motorboat to spend the morning placidly angling for fish, or explore the 22,700-acre lake in a rental sailboat. Around the lakeshore, you’ll find plenty of hiking trails, covered picnic areas, fishing piers, and playgrounds.

Orlando

The city of Orlando is home to some of the most famous theme parks in the world, and it’s fewer than ten minutes away. Restaurants, museums, and shops line Orlando’s main strip, and Lake Eola offers a peaceful getaway, with paddle boats available to explore the serene waters and a trail around the lake for hiking.
