SSR Lovers and Owners Part 4

Interesting. I didn't recall seeing a sign stating what it is - and on Disney maps and Google maps, there's no description on that building - yet it seems to be quite a large space, and prime real estate right next to the pool, Carriage House, and Springs section.

This is the program they did...I bet the space is used for most of these.

Thanks! I guess I never paid close enough attention to the fact that there's a sign up there!

It's simply called "Performance Hall" and it's rarely used anymore.

It’s used occasionally. It’s one of the few leftovers from the Disney Institute that used to be on the site.

Good Morning!
We are new DVC members with SSR being our home resort. I have a question….is there a lot of parking in the front of the resort by the main entrance? We always rent a car, so we are fine being in a building far from the front, because we’ll just drive our car to the front and then walk to Disney Springs. I’m just wondering if parking is normally available to do this.

Edited to add…..I just looked at the map and the walkway is by Congress Park. So I guess I’m now wondering if there’s a lot of parking there for us to park and walk.

Why not just hop on any park bus and get off at the Congress Park stop?

I just like having a car available - it’s just our way of doing things. We drive to the parks too, unless we are staying on the monorail circuit, then we obviously don’t drive to The MK and sometimes we drive to EPCOT and sometimes we drive to HS to take The Skyliner to Epcot. Having a car in the parking lot has proved beneficial to us over and over again. I know this is not a popular thing to do, but for us, it’s what’s best.

Welcome home!

We have been members since 2004 and have never had any issues with parking our vehicle. I don't think you will have a problem, even walking to Disney Springs. If Disney Springs is a strong desire, you may want to request a building in The Paddock buildings 6501-6836. They aren't as close as Congress Park, but they aren't too far either. You may also move your car over and walk. Another option would be to request The Grandstand and take the boat to Disney Springs. There is also an internal route for the bus that you could use to go to Congress Park and then walk from there.

A note about our experience with room requests at SSR, the resort is large so if you have no requests, it has been our experience that early access to your room is more likely than if you have a specific location request.

Have fun planning and dreaming of your stay at Disney's SSR!
