Hello Friends,

It's been a while since I posted but, I have new circumstances and need advice once again.

I just added a small OKW contract to my membership. We are going to give it a try as our other resorts are in the Magic Kingdom area. So, something different.

1. Room location or building. We don't have HH room category booked, and we never bring a car. We are taking first timers and one can walk but not like "Disney World" walk so we got her a scooter. Soooo, my question is which building would you suggest? We have never had someone with a scooter, so I don't know how it works as far as where you plug them in. Do we need ground floor and plug it in inside the room? Do people plug them in outside? See, clueless.

2. Busses. I know there is an internal bus system. My fear is that OKW is already booked up so I am thinking its going to be crowded. Which bus stop should we be near if we have to load a scooter? We will be taking mid day breaks so the shorter the bus ride the better.

3. Getting to the parks. What is your best strategy.


Any tips would be great. I am really good at planning things but, this is a first-time experience away from parks and with a scooter.

I am so excited to bring my brother and sister-in-law. They have never been to a Disney park. They were talking about seeing what it is all about since we go so often, so we invited them. They are from Arizona so they will be fine in the heat. I may be the one being carted off on the scooter. 😂

Good thread as an OKW owner to post and get great information on the resort. We are owners too and enjoy the resort. Don’t have knowledge on scooter parking but with limited elevators, ground floor might be best.

Main bus loop stops order: peninsular road, south point, turtle pond, miller road, hospitality house.

This map good for resort layout and buildings closest to hospitality house category. Enjoy!
