I'm writing a book, and two characters are going to a place in Orlando that's private and in a natural setting, but I haven't decided yet. I'm thinking it could be a stream or a small lake, but I'm not sure if they have streams in Orlando, or if any of the lakes are small. Even if they do have these things, are any of these places relatively private, or do all of them have a lot of people? If they fit that description, what is the name of the place? I'm sorry if those are difficult questions to answer, but thank you if you can help me! If you want to read my story so far, please visit http://www.fictionpress.com/read.php?storyid=2142264 . If you do read it, please review. Thank you so much.

Many small lakes in and around Orlando (go to mapquest and see a map or get the free version of GoogleEarth and find a lake with only a few homes). Most have homes; some lakes have many homes, others just a few. Maximum privacy would be at night, I think. Just pick a lake name.

Orlando is essentially a flat town. No hills.... There are LOTS of small lakes. It is a medium size city, so it is not as crowded as Los Angeles or New York, but not as pieceful as say, small town in mid-west.
On the second thought, you may not call these lakes as the size is more like pond.
No streams as you really can't have a stream if there are no change in elevations.
Most lakes have houses or parks around them, so they are not private. It is fairly well developed area with not much left to build.

FLAT. Most of the Florida panhandle is very close to sea level. Lots of water and even swampy in places.
Most of the Interstate 4 corridor is becoming more urban everyday unfortunately. There are several state parks 35-50 miles south of Orlando (Lake Kissimmee, Highlands Hammock) that might suit you purpose. Happy writing!

a million)C 2) why in hell would a Canadian do not ignore that? As a Canadian, what earnings or different tax is paid interior the U. S. is thoroughly irrelevant to me. 3) i'd have guessed B 4)C 5)must be D. No different determination has adequate rivers round. i will placed out a question as a project. without searching at a map, what percentage people can call each and every Canadian province and territory and components the call of one city interior of it? i visit do this for the U. S., with many more advantageous than one city for most states.

There aren't many private small places in Orlando any more. Think more on the swampy side. Lot's of scrub oaks and moss, Similar to the movie Great Expectations with Ethan Hawke and Gweneth Paltrow.

Orlando barely has magnificent views due to its location. Florida
is mostly flat areas everywhere you go and you can get magnificent views of the horizon because of its flatness.downtown Orlando is actually small and the city's main attraction is Disney World.
