Davenport, Florida - a Great Vacation
Destination Very Close to Walt Disney World by Rado
Davenport
is located in Polk County Florida. The population is roughly 2000, and it
is part of Lakeland Winter Haven. In the winter months the population
explodes to 10-12000 people, mostly tourists and vacationers.
Davenport
is quickly expanding, and the outskirts are being built up quickly. For
the most part this can be attributed as a result of increased tourism in
the area. The town is very close to Walt Disney World which makes it a
popular destination. Those that have spent time here say that it is a
quiet sleepy area away from the hustle and bustle of the bigger cities in
Florida such as nearby Orlando and Daytona Beach.
This
area was well known for the amusement park Circus World however the park
was closed in the late 80's Boardwalk and Baseball then took over. This
was the home of the Kansas City Royals spring training camp, at the time
Davenport was known as "Baseball City". In 2005 the stadiums
and surrounding area was completely demolished and the large outdoor
shopping centre and community known as Posner Park was created.
There
are numerous golf courses in the area, most popular are the Champions
Gate GCC, Southern Dunes, and of course the Walt Disney World Golf
Course.
Whether
you're moving here or just planning a Florida vacation there is something
for everyone.
There
are plenty of hotels and motels in the area, Davenport vacation rentals
are a great way to fulfill the accommodation aspect of your trip. Florida
vacation rentals are also available in nearby Kissimmee, Winter Haven,
Cypress Gardens and Crystal Lake..
