East Orlando / UCF area · Orlando, FL · Our summary of recurring themes in public resident feedback, plus property details and advertised rent. Updated Jul 30, 2026.

Quick take on Madison Waterford Lakes

Madison Waterford Lakes is the newest large community on the UCF side of east Orlando, drawing young professionals and university staff with 2023-vintage units and easy 408 access. Early resident feedback is polarized — strong marks for staff friendliness and location against pointed complaints about construction quality and pests.

The nitty-gritty

These details come from public property materials and listings available at research time. Fees, parking rules and utility packages can change, so request the complete lease-cost sheet before applying.

Parking
Uncovered parking is first come, first served. Detached garages and carports are offered for an additional charge, but the official FAQ does not publish the current amount.
Recurring fees
A $35 monthly Property Services Fee covers valet trash, pest control and package services.
Application fees
$75 application fee per applicant plus a $200 administrative fee after approval.
Utilities
Water and sewer are billed with rent and allocated by apartment size and occupancy. Residents arrange and pay for electricity separately.
Pet details
Up to two pets with no published size or weight limit. Current listing data shows a $500 one-time fee per pet and $20–$35 monthly pet rent determined through PetScreening. Listed breed restrictions apply.
Management company
Madison Apartment Group, L.P.
Transit & commute
The official FAQ places LYNX Central and the Winter Park Amtrak station about 20–25 minutes away and Orlando-area airports about 25–30 minutes away. The community also advertises access to SR 408, Alafaya Trail, East Colonial Drive and UCF.
Noise context
Resident feedback is mixed: one verified resident describes the community as peaceful, while another reports disruptive noise from an upstairs neighbor.
Unit features
Published features include open-concept layouts, quartz counters, subway-tile backsplashes, soft-close cabinetry, under-cabinet lighting, stainless appliances and plank flooring. Select homes add dual vanities and rain showers.
Lease terms
The official FAQ lists 12–15 month lease terms.
Income restrictions
Applicants must document gross monthly income of at least three times the monthly rent; the property uses third-party income verification.
Washer & dryer
In-unit washer and dryer.
Package delivery
Package services are included in the $35 monthly Property Services Fee.
Research transparency

We cross-check property information and summarize recurring public resident feedback. A missing detail means we could not verify it reliably—not that the fee, rule or feature does not exist.

Questions to ask when you tour Madison Waterford Lakes

Use these questions to verify current conditions and investigate the trade-offs surfaced by public resident feedback.

  • What is the exact monthly total after every mandatory fee, utility package and service charge?
  • Can I see the specific available unit—not only the model—and receive the quoted price in writing?
  • How does guest parking work, and what rules can lead to towing?
  • Who handles after-hours maintenance emergencies, and what response time is promised in the lease?
  • Which units are least exposed to road, rail, aircraft, amenity or nightlife noise?
  • How often has the access gate or controlled-entry system been unavailable during the past year?
  • Is pest control included, how often is it performed, and how are repeat issues escalated?
  • Which advertised amenities are currently open, what are their hours, and is access included in base rent?
How this apartment research is made How we build these pages: we examine publicly available resident feedback from sources such as Google, ApartmentRatings, Yelp and Reddit, then summarize recurring themes in our own words. We don't copy review text or display third-party star ratings. Paid partner modules are labeled and do not alter the editorial summary. Trade-offs reflect what residents report — experiences vary. Rent ranges come from public listings and change often; always confirm current pricing, fees and policies with the property directly.
