SSR Lovers and Owners Part 3

Yes, but with specifics like the activity and time.

You can find Resort Monthly Recreation Calendars HERE! Hope that helps!

Yes, there is a guard gate at every resort.

Yes there is. Besides us checking in the first time ( and telling them we were checking in) that is the only time they asked for our magic band (to check hotel stay). Every time we left and came back all the guard said was “returning?” And we said yes and they let us through. Boardwalk, BC, GF, and Poly always required us to use our bands each time. So I believe a lot of people prob come to park and then go to DS.

Hi - I am considering renting points to stay here for the Wine & Dine half marathon (first weekend of Nov). All other epcot hotels are booked, so it's either SSR or Swan Reserve. If we stay at SSR, can we get an uber from our room, or do we need to walk to the main lobby? Same for uber drop offs. We typically uber to all parks except MK, where the bus MK drop off/pick up is preferred (it's also why I don't love Swan Reserve as much - no bus to MK!). Thanks!

You can get an Uber pick up and drop off from your room (building you are staying in). Uber will pinpoint your location for pick up - once I used this, I saved it for drop off locations.

Anyone been recently and know if when walking to Disney Springs, they are still requiring you to enter down by Earl of Sandwich?

In March they were. They funneled SSR walkers, people on the boat, and people arriving via rideshare through that entrance. Had to walk through the security scanners.

We were there last week. You are still required to enter by Earl.

Water??? Does store at SSR sell Gallon jugs? Or does any store on property? If not, do they sell at least quart bottles?

Or is there an off-property store that would deliver water without a $25 delivery fee? I really won't need other groceries but I won't have a car & hoping to avoid Uber just to buy water.
Thanks! 1st stay SSR solo trip soon. Very excited.

I can't recall if they have gallons, but they definitely had quarts of Dasani water.

They sell gallon jugs of distilled water, for those using CPAP machines. Sometimes it's out on the shelves, many times it must be requested.

is there a boat dock at Westside? or a walking path to westside? trying to figure out the best way to get to Cirque from SSR

 

[lizdis1]

Is anyone there who could snap a picture of the rec calendar? It’s not up on the resorts thread yet and I am trying to plan our day for Friday. Thanks!!

I know you can rent bikes, but can you rent them for several days and keep them in your room over night? I am an early riser and would like to go for a bike ride at 4-5am when I wake up.

The only boat dock open at DS is the one at the Marketplace(down near Congress Park). There is a walking path that is out behind the main lobby building which ends up in the west side area of DS. You can also walk the other way(by Congress Park) but you will have to walk all the way through DS to get to Cirque.

There is a boat dock but it has not opened since the shutdown. There is a walking path from SSR to the west side of DS. It is behind the Carriage house goes over the river, take a left and follow it to DS.

Hello. We have a trip planned in November and will be bringing my mother, who needs a wheelchair. Does anyone know where or how I can find out how far it is from each building group to the dining area/main pool (EX 1 mile from Congress Park)? I am trying to figure out if we should rent a car or if pushing her in a wheelchair is a viable option.

Thank you
