My favorite thing about Kissimmee was the experiences we had dining around time. At the end of each night, we picked a place to eat and shared our thoughts about the day, gathered around a table. As simple as that sounds, it was so comforting. As a family, we felt so removed from our creature comforts. By hundreds of miles. The one feeling we shared was how we felt like

It had been a long summer, dealing with sinkhole repairs, doing some of the work ourselves and watching grandchildren on the weekend. I saw an a promotion on Gaylord Palms of Kissimmee’s facebook page for the shuttle launch. Try as we might, we could not get through to get one of the discounted rooms. As my husband is a retired Marine, I asked on the site if they had any

My Kissimmee story is I was born in the north and weaned in the south! I have lived in the Kissimmee area for over 43 years and have watched and participated in the growth of a small 1 traffic light town, a lovely mix of cattle ranches and citrus groves…Kissimmee today is still a charming,unmatched area that is filled with unending possibilities and offers a much more laid back

We had planned to visit Disney, but we found lots of fun things to do in Kissimmee, too, like Old Town and mini-golf. We had so much fun that less than a year later, I ended up moving down here. One of

My Kissimmee Story is that I loved going to Kissimmee/Orlando when I was little because it meant going to Disney World. Sometimes, we stayed at Disney hotels and sometimes we stayed in Kissimmee hotels. I’ll always have good memories about visiting Kissimmee!

In my head I’ve been to Kissimmee and had a glorious vacation where the weather was perfect and the skies were always sunny. We had a great time doing amazing things and seeing the sights.
My most treasured memory of visiting Kissimmee, FL is a 2001 tour of Splendid China. I’m saddened that the exhibit was closed but also aware that it opened my eyes to a world I’d hardly dreamed of visiting. The depth and breadth of intricate craftmanship of the figurines, structures, and landscape amazed me. Watching the performers and enjoying the meal drove home to my heart the culture of China. I’ve
