POR Renovation

[SplashMtn]

I apologise if this has been answered, but I have ran a search and couldnt find anything- just a quick question, when is the gradual renovation (sp?) of POR due to be finished?

Hi SplashMtn! Welcome to the DIS!

When they started the PO renovation, they estimated that the entire project would take two years to complete. If it's on schedule, it should be done by next spring. Hope that helps

Just last week, I saw them renovaing about 2 of the mansion buildings. I rode past them on my surrey bike!

Thanks for the replies TLinden16 and DisKim- I had been worried about the state of the rooms at POR for a moment- having read only brilliant reports, though stumbling upon some negative ones. Hopefully by august next year the renovations should be finished then and even if theyre not, the many good reports about the room conditions outnumber the bad anyway- and the room condition wouldnt detract from the brilliant landscaping/ theming which is worth the odd stain on the carpets if thats the case!

I stayed at POR last year before renovation and I had no problem with the room. It wasn't run down at all. I stayed in Magnolia Terrace which was beautiful. It has a gazebo out front. POR is beautiful. You'll love it.

Thats great to know- I have read many opinions about the size of the resort- did you find it too spread out, or was the space a positive for you as I think it will be for me? Glad to hear you had a good stay!
