    Terra Verde, High Grove or Glenbrook?

    It's a long shot I know, but has anyone seen any of these communities and can offer an opinion about which they preferred and why? Also in terms of travelling time which communnity offers quicker access to Disney/Universal, or is in a nicer location, and which has the better selection of restaurants/supermarkets close by? Thank you for your help.

    Both are new communities. Terra Verde is down Ponciana Bvd - about 2 miles south of the Walmart on 192. Resort community. Nice layout. High Grove is at the west end of the 192 on the 192/27 junction. Probably equidistant from Disney. Terra Verde is nearer to established shops/ restaurants, but High Grove has a lot of new development - new Walmart and some other shops and restaurants near by. So you pays your money and you makes your choice. They have differnt character but both are good communities.

    Terra Verde is really, really nice. We were one of the lucky one's, someone gave back word on a great lake view lot. So we got it. That was back in November last year. Going out 1st Dec to close on it, Can't wait.

    Hi Heddgehog

    Welcome to the forum!

    I think you'll find that all of the homes on the three OV sites has something to offer in the way of location, facilities, etc, etc so whichever you choose, I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

    I'd have to say High Grove, but then I'm biased as we have just bought there.We go out at the beginning of November for our first holiday in our new villa.

    Like Julie I am a biased High Grover. Did you know you get to use a 5 star caribbean resort if you stay on High Grove with lots of extras.

    Thank you for all the replies. I really appreciate the unbiased views (ok so SOME are biased [^]!) I think I am favouring High Grove myself over Terra Verde and it would appear to be nearer to Disney too. Is that right?
    Can I throw a third option into the ring - Glenbrook? I have a couple of options of villas to rent there. They are both a little more money than High Grove and Terra Verde. Any reason for this do you think? Is it a nicer community? Has anyone, by chance, seen both Glenbrook and High Grove to compare?
    Thanks everyone.
