Just west of Orlando and all of its theme parks, you'll find Winter Garden, Florida. Mostly known for its old Florida charm and style, you'll find this former citrus town nestled along the bank of Lake Apopka. What was once fields of orange groves, is now a small town that's a perfect spot for growing families or busy professionals.
Where?
