I am in a refurbished 1 bedroom in the Springs right now, and boy is it nice! Whoever designed the refurbishment did an excellent job. We never really liked staying at SSR, but this refurbished 1 bedroom with a magnificent view of a small lake has changed our minds!

I think the new redesigned rooms are a game changer for SSR. The old green was not a flattering color. I was OK with it, but it wasn’t appealing to the eye. With the 5th bed in 1 bedrooms is what they needed. I’m glad they didn’t put them in a studio. Can’t wait to stay in a new room there. Looks like our fall trip we will be at SSR.
 
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE,,,,keep all these positive comments to yourselves....I am a SSR owner and love being able to book anytime I want...So the more that know about this place the worse it is for me..Keep them as your sleep around points...
Half kidding of course,,,love to share our great resort,,,large enough for all.
 

We just booked a 3 night stay in a one bedroom with a “preferred” view for mid March....any chance this WON’T be a refurbished room?

All preferred rooms have been completed for a while now. They are working on the last section of standard rooms.

So the studios still have the pull-out sofa?

So funny but so true.
Stayed in SSR 2BR last month and love what they have done. Feels modern now and def a major upgrade over the old theme
 
Do the refurbished one bedrooms definitely sleep 5?

Refurbished studios have a pull down Murphy bed over the couch.
I hear it makes for a great bed with a regular mattress. The couch is less comfortable as it is just cushions on the wood platform, and not springs like a normal couch.
(The couch actually lowers as you pull down the bed)

Yes. The refurbished 1 bedrooms sleep 5. Don’t forget the trundle bed under the TV in the living room is a little smaller than a twin sized mattress.

The last I heard they had were working on one building in the Grandstand and they were finishing up the Carousel buildings. There are 4 buildings in the Grandstand area and those are the last buildings to be refurbished. That was about a month ago so those Carousel buildings should be pretty close to being finished. We are staying at SSR in the fall, can’t wait for the new rooms. Heading to OKW next month.
 
Carousel seems like the never ending renovation. There was construction around Carousel when we visited in October, before Paddock was renovated. Now it looks like Paddock is done and they are still working on Carousel.

lol - I read so many reviews about Bay Lake Tower vs. Riviera 1 bedrooms. Then I found SSR newly renovated and really not much more to get the 2 bedroom. So we are booked there for next spring break. When the kids were smaller we stayed in Caribbean Beach and Port Orleans, and this looks like it is sort of the same area.

It's directly across from DS, just down the Sassagoula River from OKW. Port Orleans is a little further up the river from OKW. So if when you stayed at Port Orleans you took the boat to DS (may have been Downtown Disney then), you passed OKW and SSR on the way there. CBR is farther away and not on the river but is "sort of" in the same area in the sense that it's fairly close to DS.
