Just returned from 5 nights at Mickey's Emerald Castle. Everything was just perfect. There are 4 bedrooms which provided lots of space for our entire group. I slept in the upstairs king size bed and it was probably the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. I wanted to bring it home with me. Every bedroom had a T.V. which was nice with 4 teenagers. The huge sectional sofa was very comfortable as well. My daughter fell asleep and slept all night on it two of our five nights there. The townhouse was very clean and well maintained. It is very close to the entrance of Disney, like 5 minutes close. Also it is close to grocery stores and eating establishments as well. The resort itself is beautiful, I only wish we would have had a free day just to relax and enjoy it. I highly recommend this place if you want a lot of space and a relaxing environment. The patio opens up to a wooded area (very peaceful). I priced alot of places before we chose this one. I will tell you that this price cannot be beat for the space and quality we received. We will certainly stay here again only next time a full week!

We stayed here 5/28-6/4 and had a great time. Loved the tile floor in the living area and kitchen. Our only comment was that the couch was a little dirty but other than that the place was clean. Only minutes from Disney parks. We were able to come back to the townhome relax, eat dinner with the cooking utensils provided and then go back to the park in the evening for the parades. We would definitely recommend Mickey's Emerald Castle and we would return.

My family and I went in December to Disney World and Islands of Advanture. this was our 5th time to Magic Kingdom. and Indeed this was very close to the gates of Magic Kingdom. It was only 3 miles or less. We were also very close to Outback,Cracker Barrell, Mcdonalds and many more restaurants. The townhouse was lovely. 4 bedrooms, which we did not even use one of them. We only had time to go to the attractions so we did not have time to go to the clubhouse. The security guard was very nice and we had not trouble at all. The place is lovely and very comfortable with all of the extras,including dishes, towels, sheets etc I would highly recommend anyone to stay in this safe and conveiently located townhouse.

I can't say enough great things about this property rental. I spent a week here with my 6 children and the house was equipped with everything i could have needed for my kids ages 3-16, they were never bored.The kids absolutely loved playing with the plushed toys and board games every day. I cooked most of our meals their and the kitchen had everything i needed. The house has two large master bedrooms both with king sized beds that were so comfortable, i did not want to leave. The home has 4 bathrooms which is wonderful when you are traveling with so many people. I couldn't believe how immaculate the home was, the pictures did not even do it justice. After a long day at the parks, we were all looking forward to going back to the townhome to relax and go to the pool. The living area was so spacious and the couch was beyond comfortable. And having an oversized washer and dryer at my fingertips was a huge plus. You get so much more at this place for the money then you would ever get a hotel, it truly is unbelievable how cheap it really is. I would never stay at a hotel again after this experience. The grounds were beautiful and having the woods back the house was truly relaxing. The townhome was within minutes of everything from restaurants to food stores to gift shops. The staff was beyond helpful and extremely nice. I have already recommended this home to many people and i will definetely be back next year. This is the best vacation home ever!!!

Just got back from a weeks stay here on 6/12/10. Our experience with the house was wonderful. It had everything we needed. We cooked four meals here to save on eating out every night. The club house was great and we used the pool and hot tub every night after a long day at the parks or a round of golf. I want to thank the staff at the club house for printing out coupons that saved me over $50.00 for my three rounds of golf I played. I would highly recommend this place to anyone seeking a great value for a place to stay. My only small complaint had to deal with the TV. Every day it seemed around 3 PM we would get our daily thunderstorm and would lose the signal. Tried watching the US Open but had to wait till signal returned. I would recommend getting all cable channels instead. We will rent the property again in the future. Thanks for a great week. Dave from New Castle, De.

I've stayed at few rental properties before, but none were as great like this home. My family and I stayed at this house for a few days and we loved it! This is such an excellent place to stay, so much that we really didn't want to leave when it was time to go! The location is terrific, only about 3 miles from Disney property, a mile or so to a local Winn-Dixie Marketplace grocery store and about 4 miles from a Super Walmart. The description of the house with the pictures and reviews are very accurate, but really can't say enough about how cool this house and the community is! This house is immaculate. The house has two large master bedroom suites with private baths - the plush king sized beds were a dream to sleep in! The living room area was spacious and the large sectional couch was sooo comfortable to relax on after a day at the parks! The owner as well as the property manager were both very helpful and responsive in answering our emails. The owner has equipped this house well for families with small children - there is a wooden crib, playpens, strollers, as well as some plush toys, board games and movies to keep your little ones busy - our kids loved it and were never bored! The property manager does a great job and is very responsive to our questions and requests. We had a stuck sink drain that was fixed soon after on the same day, and the manager called us afterward to make sure everything was fine, which we really appreciated. I must mention that the clubhouse has a lot of daily activities set up for all ages to participate in, that were either free or charged a minimal fee. The days we were there, they had a family movie night in their clubhouse movie room, an ice cream social, a coloring/craft activity for kids, among other things. The community pool is great and has a well-equipped nice outdoor tiki bar for adults to relax and enjoy while the kids are swimming. The tiki bar features a karaoke night on Friday and Saturday nights from 7 to 10pm which is a alot of fun. Thank you Brett for sharing your great vacation home! I have referred many people to stay at your place and will definitely be back later this year!

We've stayed in several properties in this area over the past several years but this is the only one we've ever wanted to come back to! It really lives up to its hype. The beds were of excellent quality and size! The decorating was very appropriate and pleasing. The proximaty to the club house was a definate plus. We found the unit to be in excellent repair and very clean. There is a pride of ownership here that is very evident. The proximity to Disney World is difficult to beat. I not only would recommend this property to others, I have!

My family stayed in Mickey's Emerald Castle from December 4-13, 2009. It was wonderful and the perfect size for all of us. The location is great! Very close to all the disney parks. The home is close to the clubhouse. The pool is heated and the hot tub was great. I loved the Mickey rug in the twin room. Brett (the owner) is great to work with. I have a one year old son and when I was looking for a home for our vacation I specifically asked the owners about a full size crib and not a pac "n" play. Anyone that has visited disney knows that having a good nights sleep makes for a better vacation for everyone. Brett was so kind as to purchase a crib for our stay. I would highly recommend this vacation home when visiting Orlando.

Owner response:And now MICKEY'S EMERALD CASTLE has a crib upon request. Thanks and HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!!!!

Stayed at Mickeys Emerald Castle Nov 14 to 21. Townhouse is close to the pool--a short walk. Excellent privacy with 2 master suites plus two other bedrooms with shared bathroom. Enjoyed having television in each bedroom. And a much appreciated plus, is the wireless internet at the house. Great place for families to share togetherness along with privacy. Unbeleiveable close to Disney World and all its attractions. Children will love the Disney decor. Brett, owner, is very responsive and quick to answer any questions.
