Closest Resort to Epcot

[iluvwdw_2002]

Hey, Fellow DISers!!!

My question is...which resort is closest to EPCOT? I am thinking it is the Beach Club, but not sure. Also, how long is the walk from the closest resort?

Thanks a mil!!

I'd have to agree with the Beach Club as being closest to EPCOT. However, the Board Walk and Yacht Club are not too much further. The walk to and from the Beach Club and EPCOT's International Gateway is about 10 to 15 minutes, if that. The Boardwalk and Yacht Club are just a few minutes more. I love the location of these resorts. You can take a boat over to the International Gateway at EPCOT, and a boat to MGM. You also now have the option of walking, which is sometimes faster than the boats! And you can also walk through EPCOT to the monorail, and take that to the Transportation and Ticket Center and then over to the Magic Kingdom. You only need to take a bus if you are going to Animal Kingdom, Downtown Disney or the water parks. Good luck with your choice. I'm sure that you will have a wonderful time, no matter where you stay!

BC is the closest. The walk is about 5 minutes from the pool area. However... YC, BWI, and the Swan and Dolphin are all within an easy distance too, between 10 and 15 minutes. We often walk from the Swan (or we take the Friendship launch -- doesn't save time but saves your tootsies!)

Don't forget though that from BC you enter Epcot at the International Gateway in World Showcase, not the front of the park.

About how long of a walk is it from the International Gateway to the front of the park? TIA

At a minimum I'd say 20 minutes walking without stopping at a fairly brisk pace.
