Ice machines in Grand Californian?

[bethwc101]

We are hoping to freeze some water bottles before the park. Do they have ice machines in the grand where we can fill up a mini cooler the night before to freeze some waters and ice packs?

Yes, they have ice machines. But, how do you plan to freeze waters and ice packs just using ice in a cooler? Are you planning to add rock salt or something?

Yes. I will have a small cooler to freeze drinks using rock salt and then a large ice chest with ice one baggies for milk and breakfast sandwiches.
Other hotels I have just had to restock ice before we leave and when we get home

What a fabulous idea! I'd never thought of using rock salt & ice to freeze drinks. Genius!

I have created my own cooler insulated drawstring bag that I take to the park, but in the past we have had access to a freezer. The bag is small like your basic drawstring bag, but I added an interior liner of the hot/cold bags so I will typically put in a few frozen waters/gatorades in the bottom and other snacks, non frozen drinks, and treats on top of it. The treats stay cool all day and when the ice melts we drink the waters.

We've had bottles of water freeze when the mini frig was turn all the way to COLD!

I'm sure there are several on each floor. I know there is one on each floor across from room X105.
