Just checked in today! Beautiful view from our room and I believe we are close to both pools but definitely High Rock.

We played at the paddock pool while waiting for our room - I took lots of pictures including the menu for lunch and dinner.

We haven't set up the computer yet but I'll share the photos once we hook up!
 
We were in a tree house last week, too. I wonder if we were neighbors? We checked out of 7016, yesterday.

We were in 7009....the pathway right next to the first bus stop. We checked out Friday. We rented a car for the first time - have always used the buses. I don't think we would have like it as much without the rental.

I actually saw a car from RI parked near the boat dock area. Anyone from the DIS?? I only noticed the Jeep because it was the same car/color I drive.
 
Many thanks for this! So I will call and tell them I dont want Carousel, and request either Congress Park or Grandstands! :goodvibes


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.
 

Ok, so I requested an upper level with a DTD view...:goodvibes

dizneydad and tjhsr sure has gotten me excited about those rockers! :cloud9: I just spent the last 3 days reading the entire thread, and I am certain I have made the best choice for us. I cant wait to walk to DTD and enjoy the grounds in that area of the resort! And sitting in the hot tub and gazing at the view...cant wait!! Not sure if I could drag myself out there at 630 am but I will be there at some point! :laughing:

I did, however, forget to mention we were celebrating my birthday! :headache: I may call back, maybe I wont. Im just feeling incredibly fortunate to get back there so soon! This is becoming a habit, and I can see myself suffering with addonitis until I buy into SSR too! :yay:

Hope you get your request its great to get a DTD view at least once. We have been lucky a few times to get a great view but we have also gotten parking lot. Funny thing about that was it turned out to be best location for the buses and the pool. Come out the side stairs and you are right in front of the pool and the bus stop. So it wasn't bad. We just enjoy CP because it's a short walk to DTD and easy to walk up to the Carriage house. Oh and enjoy the rockers day or night :woohoo::woohoo:
 
Did someone say rockers?!

Wish I was there, well, maybe not NOW, but you know what I mean.
 
Thanks kikiq; great way to start my day.

Look at those rockers; calling to us, with the gentle sound of falling water behind them, a great expanse of water between them and the hub bub of DTD. Ahaaaaaaaaaaa . . . . . .

Thanks!
 
Well, you know...someone said rockers, and I love the rockers. My DH saw the picture last night and said he wished he could have his morning coffee there. Rocking, listening to the waves on the shore, watching the birds of the early morning...sighhhh.

BTW, are there rockers at the new pool? No umbrellas, but maybe rockers?
 
We sure will! :yay:

Sounds like there isnt a bad area in CP, and the parking lot views are probably better than some views elsewhere! :laughing: We had a lot view looking towards the bike rentals in the Springs last time but up and over that we could see a bit of DTD. You make do and look at what catches your eye. :goodvibes

I can't believe they won't put umbrellas in sometime soon. The pictures look like the tables have the hole in the middle for them. Or I my have to grab one from the main pool and carry it over with a rocker :woohoo::woohoo:

Rockers first please!
 
What does everyone think of the article in the Orlando Sentinal? Arnold Palmer Mngmt will be taking over the golf course in Sept. Do you think it will have a positive or negative affect on our home resort?

Positive! :thumbsup2

Combining the names of Disney and Arnold Palmer can't be anything but a great move, IMHO.

Some have wondered if we will lose our DVC "perk" of golfing rates. As for looks, you can't move the course. As for rate perks, perks come and perks go. I didn't buy at SSR for the rate perks, but I love the look of the area!

Just excited to share we purchased 60 more points at SSR:) It is really the best deal out there IMO...we love the resort and have never had an issue getting in anywhere else at 7 mths.
