The cribs are free.

When I was at PO-R last August (then DL), our DD was under 2, and we requested a crib. Ours, also, was free of charge, but was a large stainless steel looking elaborate crib -- kind of institutional, and VERY clean and sturdy. We were actually quite impressed.

I requested a crib this morning for our trip in October at the ASSports, and asked if it was a pack and play type thing, and the gentleman said, no it actually looks kind of like a cage, very sturdy and crib like. So I can't wait to see what he get. He said they supply sheets, but do you know if I can bring sheets from home that smell like home that will fit the cribs there?

We had the pack and play thing at Riverside a couple of years ago, and we brought our own sheets/blanket from home, but I don't know what size these new cribs take, maybe you can call the resort and ask if its a standard crib size.

I think it's luck of the draw... When we stayed at PO-R in May, we got a pack and play for our son, but a few doors down, I saw a maintenance man putting together a metal crib.

In April we got the metal cage crib at PO and GF. We also brought our own sheetsand bumpers and they fit fine. So they must be standard size.

HI everyone. Thanks for all of the input. I got my little yellow reservation modification paper yesterday and it satated 1 crib requested and in parentheses it said NOT FULL SIZE. so I called to find out what happened because I did request a full size crib because my son won't sleep in his own pack and play so what would he do in a strange one? So, the nice lady told me that the deluxe resorts have all full size cribs, but the all stars has only a few and you need to be lucky to get them. So I told her my story and she added my request for a full size crib to my reservation and told me to call the day we arrive to make sure they keep one for us for a late check in. So there's the scoop!
