Lunch at the Paddock Grill was pretty darn excellent, actually. We tried the Spice-crusted fish sandwich (mine sans bun and mayo) and the chicken chop salad. Both were fantastic.

The fish was grilled to perfection and excellently seasoned. (Don't be thrown by the word "crusted." It wasn't at all overpowering. The sandwich is served with Cilantro Mayonnaise and a dollop of slaw. It comes with either fries or veggie slaw. We both opted for the slaw. It was very flavorful, and I really enjoyed it. It isn't your typical mayo-based slaw. More like an oil and vinegar sauce.

The chicken chop salad has mixed greens, diced tomatoes, black beans, cucumber, and grilled corn. We opted for an olive oil vinaigrette instead of the menu-listed red pepper ranch.

My roommate was most thrilled to see a pool with a coffee machine at the refill station.

BirdsOfPreyDave - Hey, thanks for the story line and pictures! I know that it is an effort to provide such things to those of us just lurking through the thread.

Thanks. I look forward to participating in such cool culinary delights during our next SSR trip!
 

Has anyone heard anything about umbrella's for the table's at the Paddocks pool?

They're really needed. Only about half the tables at the grill are under the shade of the roof. The others are scorching!
 
Just curious if the Paddocks are now a hot spot....What was once a area that alot hated due to its long walking distance and view of the eyesore
Peach or whatever color it is building that took you out of the disney
magic and gave you a hint of the real world.
Is it a desirable building now that it has the cool pool?
Perhaps if it is I can finally get a chance to stay in Congress Park in October...
Heres to hoping
 
Hiya all :wave:

I just booked a last minute trip back to the world and couldnt be more excited! :banana:

For those who are familiar with me, you know I bought DVC last year at this time and we went home for the first time for my 40th bday in Oct/Nov. There was also a trip a few months later and we went back in Feb/Mar...and now as you can see its rounding back again to that time and I was feeling the itch. :rotfl: Each trip is only 5-6 days but I feel grateful to be able to keep going back 2-3x a year! :love:

So, we decided on SSR since it allowed us to stay another full day. The other option we had was AKV savannah view but I couldnt see me being ok with just 4 nights, so back to SSR we are going! We loved it there so no compaints!

My question is, we stayed in the Springs last time it was awesome! And while I didnt put in a request yet, I was wondering if I should, or should I leave it up to the DVC Gods to put us where they want us? Is there a bad area I should be warned about? :scared1:

Congress Park would be my first choise :thumbsup2
 
so you do or dont want to stay in the Carousel section??

I don't want to stay in The Carousel its over in a corner and its a long walk to anything. Not that some of the buildings in other section's don't have a long walk to pools or the Carriage house there just nothing else there. It would be the last section i would want.
 
We liked the Grandstands because it was close to the boat dock and first pick up on the bus route.

We stayed in the Grandstand section in May and had a really good time. We had our twin DGC who are only 2-1/2 and they had a lot of fun playing in the water area and pool. We didn't do any parks just relaxed around the pool:banana::banana: We are now trying to decide what section we will really want in Oct. its great to have so many options now:woohoo:
 
Just back from our first stay in a THV :). We tried the new Paddock pool one afternoon and really enjoyed it. My DH noticed that the new pool is open 7am to midnight while the High Rock pool is open 10a to 10p :confused3. I wonder why the difference?

All-in-all a great trip! Time to change my countdown for next year :thumbsup2
