Help w/Room request for Studio at Boulder Ridge

[Dizjunkieee]

Hi all!

We are booked in a studio from 4/10-14 at Boulder Ridge. Wonder if anyone who has stayed there previously has any thoughts on room requests. I've stayed in the Lodge itself and visited several times so am familiar with the layout of the resort in general. We are all able bodied folks who aren't scared of walking lots so that isn't really a concern. I think our priority would be having the nicest view from the balcony. Any thoughts you'd care to share?
TIA!

There is no place at VWL that really entails "walking lots."

It really depends on your definition of nice view. There is a view of cabins, there is pool view, the front side can be trees or parking.

I would request high floor and pool view.

I stayed in room 5526. Not knowing what to request, I asked for a higher floor and havevattached pics of my View. It wasn’t awful but I would have liked a pool or lake view. Also, the 5th floor halls are enclosed so you don’t see the wonderful lobby or decorations. I believe you can only see those from the 3rd floor and down. The laundry is on the 1st floor and was easy to get to.

Thank you! That sounds like a solid request. Seems the views here are often unremarkable (which I sort of knew going into it) so a pool view seems like the best option!

Yes - I also feel there are no spots here that are a long walk, but find so many people who think that if you are taking more than 20 steps it is a LOOOONG walk. Personally don't understand that mentality, but we are all unique individuals so it is what it is. It sounds like requesting a pool view is the best option as those seem to be the best views (imo) thanks for your thoughts.

Great info and the pics really help as well so thank you! Thinking a pool view on an upper floor will be the winner. Fingers crossed they are able to grant my request. Thanks again!

I recognize that view! But was in the 1BR next door 5524:
