The first door on 1st floor when you step outside of elevator and turn right:

...and this was the view from our room:

No, I haven't seen any reports either, but given the location--I'm not sure how many would even realize it is there.

I agree since it is only visible from within the courtyard or from the courtyard BWI rooms.

I am sure the pool is up and running but many not be available since it is so isolated with the BWI closed.

Loving your great pictures from BW looks like you got a great location overlooking Luna Park.

How often did/do you use your balcony? We are going to TRY and be more relaxed this trip with no doing rope drop and either getting Breakfast the night before or doing a Mobile Order and I run down to get it then make coffee in the room and enjoy breakfast on the balcony. DH said he dreads starting the day "standing in line to get breakfast" (henceforth getting it the night before) and then the rush-rush up and out to get to rope drop and stand around until that "time comes". DS is 16 and I honestly think the way DH talks and dislikes crowds more and more that this might be our last "family" trip to WDW. As sad as that makes me this trip was planned in 2018, booked in 2019 for 2020 (didn't happen) then rescheduled from 2021. I might be with DH with wanting to sit on the balcony myself early morning and later evening to savory every relaxing moment! So I just wondered how many others enjoy their balconies while on vacation?

Our balcony usage varies from trip to trip. It also varies with where our room is. If we have a boardwalk view, we tend to use it more. If we have a room over a noisy cartpath, we tend to not use it as much.

...yes, however, we switched rooms mid-stay...[1st half through me and regular booked room, 2nd half through my DS's DVC points].

This room was a Garden/water view:

This room was exactly the same 1BR layout like our other room, except our patio faced the canal and Sw/D. Also, our previous room was handicap-accessible so it had a roll-in shower as opposed to:

Our views:

....very shady and very serene, if you don't really want to be where all the hoopla is!

These were our patios for Room 1068:

Were you able to get an answer re: leisure pool on the Inn side--available or closed? Looking forward to more photos! We arrive next week.

....right across the water over HERE:

...there was a wedding going on, and boy was it HOPPING!

....I think it may have been closed, but don't quote me on it. Luna Park area was open though.

Guess it will be the DVC pool for us--we are not fans of the Luna Park pool area--not at all--but for Leaping Horse Libations on our way back to our room after an afternoon without children yelling and screaming while enjoying the serenity of the Inn leisure pool. Oh well, c'est la vie. Great photos.
