Driving down East Boulevard in Onset, you can’t help but notice the very unique vehicle sitting in the yard of one particular home.
It’s known as a surrey, a special type of bicycle, technically a quadricycle, that allows multiple passengers to have seats on the bench while riding down the road.
This blue-bar wonder features a bright yellow top and black seats with a faded license plate on the front that reads “Dune Buggy,” which is also marked with “The Haunted Mansion” logo and the words “Magic Kingdom “, which makes sense. , because this surrey is straight out of Disney World.
The bicycle is one of the amenities reserved for those who rent the property where they are based.

When you rent the homes, #StayHere includes a number of amenities such as electric bikes, paddle boats, kayaks, use of the hot tub and use of the fire pit.

We talked to two girls who work on the property who told us this surrey came from Disney World; #StayHere bought it from a person in New York, who bought it directly from Disney.
Can you picture yourself and three friends cruising down Onset Avenue in this four-wheeled wonder, taking in the sights as you pedal?
