How far is Roaring Forks from VWL?

[cyndisue]

Hello all:

This is our first trip to the Villas at the Wilderness Lodge (We usually stay at BCV). I was wondering how far of a walk it is from the villas to Roaring Forks? Is it feasible to plan one person bringing back breakfast in the morning?

Thanks!

10 minute walk max. I have brought breakfast back to the room without any problem.

I suppose it depends on how much food that one person has to carry. It's no farther than walking to the bus stop.

About 5 minutes (unless you get distracted along the way). This shows it as .17 miles from the elevators in VWL to the entrance: http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=2850528

PS - Roaring Fork. No "s".

I just stayed in THE furthest room at VWL (I was at the end of the hallway on the second floor) and it was a 9-10 min walk for me doing a steady pace and not stopping. My dh timed me. So some rooms at VWL would be closer and quicker.

I think my dh would probably enjoy the morning walk (and he loves the role of gathering the provisions for the family), so it should work out great.

Did anyone use snack credits at Roaring Fork for breakfast-y things? Is there anything healthy to be had?

Thanks!

The walk is nice...I think probably one of the best of all disney resorts because of the themeing......

They will pack it with lids and give you a bag to put your food in also.

We've done that many times for late night snacks.

We weren't on the dining plan so I can't answer that. They have a wonderful yogurt bar that they will build your parfait for you. I looked forward to this every opportunity we had. The yogurt is unflavored - my daughter hated it and thought it was too sour - I loved it! Cinnamon granola with yogurt, fresh strawberries, blueberries and red raspberries. They also had blanched almonds and white raisins available should you choose them. I stuck with the fresh fruit, granola and yogurt.
There's also fresh fruit: apples, oranges and bananas available.
