Mash-Up Weekend: Where the Hits Collide
Why choose one genre when you can have them all?
Mash-Up Weekend is bringing a little musical mayhem to Cypress Cove, mixing classic favorites with modern hits for a weekend where you never quite know what song or combination you’ll hear next.
From poolside music and dancing to trivia, karaoke, games, and a Dive-In Movie, the weekend is packed with plenty of reasons to get out, join the fun, and see what happens when different eras and styles collide.
Saturday night turns up the volume with the Mash-Up Dance at Lakeside, where familiar favorites meet unexpected pairings. Think songs you know, songs you forgot you loved, and combinations that probably shouldn't work but somehow absolutely do.
So bring your useless music knowledge, your best karaoke voice, and whatever dance moves survived your favorite decade. Mash-Up Weekend is all about mixing it up, having some fun, and enjoying a weekend that refuses to stick to just one playlist.
Saturday Night Is Moving Inside for Mash-Up Weekend!
If Saturday night usually means heading poolside for dancing, don’t make your way to the pool just yet! This weekend, the party is moving indoors to Lakeside Restaurant as part of Mash-Up Weekend.
Instead of our regular poolside dance, we’ll have a DJ keeping Lakeside moving Saturday night with a mash-up of music made for dancing, singing along, and those “I was only going to stay for one song” moments that somehow turn into an entire evening.
And after the warm temperatures we’ve been having lately, the timing couldn’t be better. Consider it a chance to trade the heat for the comfort of the indoors, grab a drink, cool off, and still enjoy a Saturday night with friends and plenty of music.
We know changing up a familiar Saturday-night tradition can take a little getting used to—but this is one of those weekends you may be hearing about afterward if you decide to call it an early night. Mash-Up Weekend only comes around once, and Saturday night at Lakeside is part of the fun.
So come inside, cool down, find your people, and see where the DJ takes us. The poolside dance may be taking the night off, but Saturday night definitely isn’t.
We Did It Again! Cypress Cove Named Best Kept Secret
We have some exciting news to share... Cypress Cove has been named Orlando Weekly’s Best Kept Secret for the second year in a row!
Winning once was an incredible honor. Winning again makes it even more meaningful, because this recognition came from the people who took the time to nominate us, vote for us, and show their support.
To everyone who cast a vote for Cypress Cove: thank you! We truly appreciate every nomination, every vote, and every person who encouraged a friend to show the Cove some love.
Of course, those of us who spend time here know the real secret isn’t simply the beautiful lake, the sunshine, or everything there is to do. It’s the people. It’s the friendships formed around the pool, familiar faces at events, conversations over dinner, and that unmistakable feeling of being somewhere you can relax and simply be yourself.
That’s what makes Cypress Cove special, and we’re incredibly grateful that so many of you think it’s worth celebrating.
Being named Best Kept Secret two years running does present us with one small problem, though…
We’re apparently getting pretty bad at keeping the secret.
Thank you to our members, residents, guests, friends, and everyone who voted. This one belongs to the entire Cove community.
Here’s to another year of being one of Central Florida’s favorite not-so-secret places!
Osceola County Clerk of the Court opens Satellite Office
Osceola Clerk of the Court has opened a new satellite office, sharing a building with the Osceola County Sheriff's Satellite office, located at 4547 Pleasant Hill Road, Poinciana.
This office is for traffic offenses only, but hopes to offer other services soon.
The office will be open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Fresh Updates Coming to the Villas
Exciting improvements are underway at the Villas! As part of our ongoing commitment to keeping Cypress Cove welcoming, comfortable, and looking its best, our villa buildings are currently undergoing a complete remodel.
These updates will give the buildings a fresh new look while bringing them in line with the style and appearance of our previously renovated buildings. The project includes both exterior and interior enhancements designed to provide a more modern, inviting experience for our guests.
Construction is expected to continue through the coming months, with an anticipated completion date sometime in the mid-to-late fall. We appreciate everyone's patience while this work is underway and know the finished results will be well worth the wait.
Thank you for supporting the continued improvements that help keep Cypress Cove a place we're all proud to call home or our favorite getaway. We look forward to welcoming guests to these refreshed villas later this year!
