The Great Escape Parkside

Brent Schlenker

I'm a 2-time Great Escape-er. I know most people use these locations as vacation destinations for their big families or extended families, but we used it for a corporate event. It was AMAZING! A PERFECT location for an event focused on game design and creative problem solving. (check out Stepaway.design if you're interested in that sort of thing) The staff is wonderful. The collection of classic games and other electronic toys and gadgets ALL WORKED! I can't even get most of my gadgets and tech to work in my own home. The attention to detail in all aspects of the interior/exterior design blow my mind. It's impressive on so many levels that it's hard to write a short review. If you're looking for a unique vacation spot for your family... especially if you have kids... this is THE BEST SPOT!

"Amazing" was a word that was used many times in the YouTube videos i watched before staying at the Great Escape Parkside!! After me and 40 other family members stayed here in June 2022 I can also say it truly is AMAZING! We are now wondering how we would be able to top our 2022 vacation. Probably only by returning to one of the other locations or repeat Parkside. The only real issue we had was closet space. Everything else was great. Everything you need in the kitchen, access to the laundry and the many towels available for the pool! We had an awesome and wonderful time leaving us with long lasting memories!!! Thank You for your creativity!!!!

Beautiful property, what an awesome rental location. My favorite rental property so far and we have rented many properties in the past all over central Florida. The amount of things to do in this house will keep you and the kids busy. The gamers and movie buffs will love the theater. You like karaoke, they have that. Chess, there were like 3 different types of chess boards, maybe more. You just want to have drinks and hang out, the outdoor fridge and grill right by the pool/jacuzzi can keep you busy all day while you soak, drink and eat. We stayed about 4 days but next time we will be staying a week or two.

My husband and I chose the Great Escape Parkside for our joint bachelor/bachelorette celebration. We absolutely LOVED our stay and all of our friends and family had a great time! Unconventional for a bach trip, but truly perfect for us! Andrew and Belinda were super attentive to us all weekend and were sweet enough to congratulate us with a cake in celebration for not only our joint bach, but also my graduation from law school (which they remembered!). Thank you both for helping to make our bachelor/bachelorette trip everything we wanted it to be!
