We have only been to Disney Springs once last year on a night during the week and the crowds were fine. This year it will work best in our schedule on a Sat night. We are going late September. How bad will the crowds be? Are they doable or so packed you can hardly move? Thanks!
 
We also were there last September. It's the free Disney park. It's always busy with off site folks but it's not as bad in the fall.

We were there last Sept. It was busy but it was very doable.It wasn't jammed packed.

Thanks! Good to hear! We were there on a Thurs night at the beginning of June last year and it was pretty busy. I couldn't even imagine a Sat night, but was hoping in September, maybe a Sat night won't be quite so bad.
 

We go during what is supposed to be THE lowest crowd week of the entire year in early September, and DS is still packed! Compared to the parks at that time, it feels like we walk at a snail's pace at night.

This is what I was afraid it would be like.

Yea....we only go during slow seasons, mostly January. We've ended up at DS/DTD many times on Saturday evenings and every time we say we won't go back on the weekend. Chaos. Every. Time.
 
Keep in mind that DS is ever-growing. Past Septembers are really no indication of what it will be like this coming September. We were there a week ago Sunday for dinner at Morimoto's. DS was wall-to-wall crowded. (Lots of Run Disney folks, so that might have made a difference.) At 7:00, people without ADRs were being turned away from many dining venues with no hope of getting a table before 10:00. Morimoto's stopped taking names around 7:00 and told people that they could have first-come bar seating or nothing. Looked to be the same at Cook's, the Boathouse and Ragland Road. And this was a Sunday.
 
Are there certain areas that are busier than others, or is it all around crazy on the weekend?
