It encompasses Crescent Lake and is ""a village on the water"" near many Disney Resort hotels in Walt Disney World Resort. This quarter-mile entertainment, dining and shopping area is also conveniently close to 2 Disney Theme Parks.With sherbet-colored building facades, striped awnings, rising columns and archways, Disney's BoardWalk is designed after the boardwalks that were famous during the turn of the 20th century along such coastal cities as Coney Island, New York and Atlantic City, New Jersey.Stroll along Disney's BoardWalk during the day to explore the unusual shops and restaurants. When the sun cools down, the nightlife heats up with street performers, food vendors, midway games and lots of live entertainment.

In November - December 2018 I visited the Disney Boardwalk and was amazed. What an experience. The water way features, the light house, do you know that there are live ducks on the dock? Special features include a fabulous light show, boat rides, the Boardwalk bakery, gift shop, The ESPN Club, and more.

We all owe Kermit Weeks a big Thank You for all the work he has done to single handedly save many of our historical aircraft from the junk heap. Weeks has his airplanes meticulously restored and then allows us to come and see them. My only regret is that they are only open three days a week now to the general public. I have been to some other great aviation museums such as PIMA Air and Space Museum in Tucson and Mid-America Air Museum in Liberal, Kansas but Fantasy of Flight in Polk City, Florida is the only one I know of in which most of the aircraft are restored to air worthy condition. Fantasy of Flight is truly a "Must See" when you are in Central Florida and Mr. Weeks, THANK YOU for all you are doing to save and restrore so many aircraft!

Lake Mirror

Reviewed By heyashleemello - Cincinnati, United States

This is iconic Lakeland and all of its glory. A beautiful place for a walk, picnic, outdoor workout, reading, riding, etc. Adjacent to downtown and Hollis Gardens, it’s worth the morning or afternoon visit. The middle of the day can be the hottest as the shade is limited; but sunsets are stunning for a location so centrally located from the coastlines. It’s just s great spot to enjoy.
