OCN should be fine. Just 40 mph here in Orlando. Nothing major. Maybe a tree or two, but can't see any other damage. Hotels might be a pain though. It's a couple weeks away, but I know hotels are booked with evacuee's.

For those looking for hotels. OCN is in the disney area, but the course is out in the sticks. I would look in I-4 US route 192 area. Also known as Kissimee. Look for anything near Disney.
You can also look for winter garden, fl. Not too many hotels out there. Disney area is your best bet.

I'm having trouble finding rooms in close proximity. Let me know if anyone can find any.

We're staying at the Marriott, which ain't cheap at $300/night...might be best for future Academies to book a block of rooms ahead of time...this is high season for the three T's...Tournaments, Tourists and Tornadoes (meaning displaced residents)

some towns around there. If you don't mind driving a half hour or so.
Ocoee 15-20 minutes
apopka 20-30
apopka is a little out of the way, but with the evacuee's you might have to stay out that way. you can take the turnpike right down to the back way to the couse. I could show you. I would google map ocn and see the towns around there. Most don't have hotels, but if you do find something I can give you an idea of time and best way to get to the course.
PM me if you have any questions.

I learned that nothing is "close" to OCN, except of course OCN lodge, which of course is booked!...loads of hotels available, just have to take a road trip each morning. |
