Default Winter Park Shopping & Attractions
I have seen a few posts on TOTV about Winter Park. I am starting to plan my list of things to do for my upcoming visit to TV in October. What is good to see/do/shop at in Winter Park? I am always up for some good shopping. I like the outlet stores in Orlando, but I like to shop at new places I have not been to before.

Ancient Olive (olive oils and balsamic vinegars) and Penzey Spices. A great seafood restaurant is Mitchell's Seafood, owned by Ruth's Chris. If you wait a year, Trader Joes!

Thanks for the posts so far. Please keep them coming! My next visit to TV starts 61 days from today. But who is counting?

Best place is Park Avenue shopping, bring lots of bucks....They have a great boat ride on the chain of lakes, early spring they have the BEST Art Festival ever....Rollins College is at one end of Park Avenue and an interesting drive....You would enjoy a ride down Genius Drive to see the wild peacocks...

We lived in WP for 8 years and loved it but moved to TV because so much more to do.
Do the boat ride at the end of Morse; a must do.
Tiffany museum, Hanibal Square, Baldwin Park, Leu Gardens, Costco, WP Village.
Great now I'm homesick and need a WP fix.
