When the parks are too crowded for me, I will come sit on your front lawn....Yes, I'm in Windermere. I live north of Reams Road up CR-535. I can see the fireworks each night from my front yard. Tiger lives down the road a bit in a little pricier home than mine. Lol!
Here is a little something off the official website. That part I bolded goes along with the idea of them being seasonal homes.
Your Golden Oak Concierge
There's something rather delightful about being able to hand over your "Want To's" and "Must Do's" to someone who can orchestrate them into "Well Done's." And here, that special someone is your Golden Oak Concierge, just a call or click away. It will be their pleasure to take care of such arrangements as:
•Move-in services
•Travel and private transportation
•Disney parks and special-event tickets
•Golf tee-times
•Dinner reservations
•Private VIP tours
•At-home dinners and parties
•Holiday home decorating
•Grocery shopping and errands
•Pre-arrival and post-departure home maintenance services
Why would you need travel and private transportatio courtesy of Disney if you lived there all the time? The pre-arrival and post-departure home maintenance makes it sound like the take care of the house when the owner is not there.
I read this from their site and wondered about the at home dinner parties & holiday home decorating... shopping and errands (will they go shopping for the home owners ).. is concierge really going to plan & do this for people.. I need to move to Orlando and get a job in Golden Oaks.. I love spending other peoples money..
As far as the travel & private transportation, it could be to go to the parks as well. I see they do have the Pre-arrival & post departure home maintenance services.. maybe they are hoping they are used as vacation homes. I really cannot see them stating they must be.
