Hi!
We stayed at POP for 10 days last July. We were in room 4140 in the 60s building. My parents were in the room right next to us. I cannot tell you how highly I recommend this location!!! It was literally no more than 2 minutes from our door to the main pool, and maybe 3 minutes the other direction to the bowling pin pool (which we never used). The food court was maybe a minute or so past the main pool.
What was so amazing about our room is that the view and our "front yard" made us feel like we were in a fancy resort all by ourselves! Due to the location, we rarely saw anyone passing our room. Each day we were greeted by a wide variety of cool wildlife, which we had lots of fun taking pictures of!
Here are pictures taken from outside of our room:
Here are some of our furry friends that we saw each day outside of our door:
Here are some pictures taken from our room at dusk. It was peaceful and beautiful!
I took this one from the walkway by the water in front of our room:
Here are some pictures so you can see the exact location of our room. We have the window decorations . . . our room is on the left and my parents' room is on the right.
I made a privacy curtain by putting up a small tension rod and some curtains:
I also found this pop-up hamper (Wal-Mart) to be very handy! I could carry it right to the laundry room and it even had a pouch on the side for change/soap/etc... It folded flat for travel.
And my favorite organizational tool (picked up this tip on the DisBoards!) was a shoe organizer:
Finally, if you stay there, don't miss feeding the fish and turtles from the bridge - our boys LOVED this! (Note: there is a bench there, be careful as kids naturally want to stand on it and then look over into the water. It made me nervous!) We brought pieces of bread and saltine crackers.
We loved our stay there and wouldn't hesitate to return again!
