It’s all about. ‘The View’
The uninterrupted view of the 14 acre lake and bird island, takes unwinding by the pool to a new level!
Relax on a sun bed, or perhaps get wrinkly in the spa whilst you enjoy the wonderful view of the lake and island.
Our fully screened deck is further enhanced by hedging, affording the more body conscious guest that all important privacy.
Together with the sun beds, there are chairs, tables and footstools.
Outside the pool screen is a Gas BBQ.
The covered lanai with ceiling fan gives shade and a breath of air when that legendary sunshine is just too much or for enjoying a quiet drink in the evening.
Sitting under the lanai during a storm is spectacular!
The inside our home is fully air conditioned and has ceiling fans in all rooms.
A large great room, a fully fitted and equipped kitchen and two dining areas are complimented by the separate games room giving plenty of options for even the largest party to find some personal space.
There are 2 master bedrooms, both with king beds, en-suite facilities and enviable views across the natural spring fed lake.
The ground floor king master has a full en-suite bathroom with separate shower cubicle, twin sinks and walk-in closet. There are patio doors out onto the deck area.
The first floor king master has an en-suite shower room with over sized walk-in shower, sink and W.C. This shower room is also accessible from the landing if required.

Unique Benefits
We cant stress enough the beauty of the lake! The island at the center is home to a wealth of birds and even the occasional Alligator (never feed a Gator!)
It is wonderful to listen to the battle of the feathers when the birds argue over who has which branch for the night!
Take a walk around the main lake, stand on the fishing pier and watch the turtles - some as big as garbage can lids! or maybe try to catch a few fish.
Visit the kids play area or test your stamina with a game of beach volley ball.
Next to the third lake is a tennis court (racquets and balls are provided in our home) and a basketball hoop.
Why Kids Love It
The kids love their own pool no matter what the weather is doing!
For the serious swimmer who maybe wants to keep up their fitness levels, there is a large pool attached to the clubhouse. It is heated Oct - Mar.
There is also a large spa for up to 8 people and a kiddies splash area with water canons!

Owner Info
Michael Rickell
Year Purchased: 2006
About the owner: Based in the north of England, we have been regular visitors to the Kissimmee area since 1995. We always rented a home for our trips and when we decided to buy our 1st villa in 2004, we had a very specific 'must have and must not have' list!
Lake Berkley ticked every box and then some!
'Winter Haven' is our second villa at Lake Berkley. Our 1st home 'Riva del Lago' is a 4 bedroom villa just around the corner!
Why this property? The View!
When we bought our first property there was absolutely nothing for sale where the pool deck had a view of the main lake.
So when 'Winter Haven' came up for sale in 2006, we knew it was for us!

Amazing visit, we will be back
We loved everything about this house. Our kids had a great time fishing in the pond and hours swimming in the pool. The house was clean and spacious. Had everything we needed to make meals at the house. The house is also centrally located for all our areas and parks we visited. We will definitely be back!!!

Delighted to know you enjoyed your stay in our home, thank you for your very positive review! A villa can only be as good as the person taking care of it on a day to day basis, and our property manager does a wonderful job. Glad the pool area and that wonderful serene view has another fan! We look forward to welcoming you back!
