From Walt Disney World to SeaWorld, there's a whole universe of theme parks to explore just outside of Davenport. Pay a visit to Legoland, Universal Studios, or Busch Gardens for a change in scenery. If museums are more your speed, you can head to nearby Kissimmee for the Museum of Military History, the Osceola County Historical Society Pioneer Museum, or the Warbird Air Museum. If you opt for a Davenport vacation rental on one of the many local golf courses, you're likely to keep everyone in the family happily active.
Davenport is an attractive base for families and groups traveling to Florida to visit Disney World and the surrounding parks, thanks to its prime location just south of Orlando. But what makes it especially perfect is the fact there's plenty to see and do locally. Spend the day paddleboarding on Tower Lake, take a hike in the Lake Marion Creek Wildlife Management Area, or go bird-watching at the Sherwood L. Stokes Preserve. Booking a Davenport vacation rental ensures that no one in your group will be bored, from the little ones to the young at heart.
The spring months of March through May are ideal in Davenport, thanks to the pleasant weather. Crowds are smaller, as kids are still in school, which is why Davenport vacation rentals are easier and cheaper to book in spring. The summer months are the busiest, hottest, and most expensive. September through November is just as comfortable as spring, but this can change quickly because it's also hurricane season. Winters in Davenport are a pleasant option to get a spot of winter sun, but keep in mind that lots of families will be trooping to Disney during the festive season.
Located in Central Florida, Davenport is mostly flat, with a few gently rolling hills. This makes the land perfect for stunning golf courses, which can be found around what feels like every corner. Though it's under 2 hours' drive to either coast, Davenport also has plenty of wetlands of its own. There's a variety of lakes, ponds, and swamps in the area, so keep your eyes peeled for alligators. Bird lovers, however, will be happy to learn that many of the local wildlife parks and preserves are ideal spots for catching their friends in flight.
The nearest airport is in Kissimmee, FL (ISM-Kissimmee Gateway), located 12.8 mi (20.7 km) from the city center. If you can't find a flight that works for your travel itinerary, you can also fly into Orlando, FL (MCO-Orlando Intl.), which is 24.3 mi (39.1 km) away.
