Parking at resorts for ADRs

[melissafox18]

Never drive myself around WDW before. If we have ADRs for dinners at CR and AKL, there's no cost to self park, correct?

Correct. Just tell them at the guard shack that you have a reservation. They might look you up or not, depending on how busy it is, and then they'll either give you a parking pass or wave you on through.

The CR is more likely to check your reservation, because the parking there is more constrained.

As long as you don't plan on going to the MK after dinner at CR, you'll be fine.

As the PPs have said, there is no charge to self park at the resorts. You can also valet park ($15/day plus tip) if you wanted to.

For CR, when you approach the toll plaza for MK (assuming you're coming from somewhere outside of MK or the MK resorts), be in the right lanes. Otherwise, you'll end up having to cross all of lanes to avoid being funneled to the MK parking lot.
