We are staying at POP for the first time in August and this board has made me REALLY excited to be staying there!!

Thanks so much for all of your hard work Buckey Gal! We are headed back to POP next year and this thread keeps me going until then.

This thanks is from a "Bearcat" fan... but I have to say... DS has turned me into a huge Michigan fan over the many years. LOL.

Thanks again! You are amazing!!!

Thank you Buckeye Gal for all of your hard work & helpful info. We just got back from POP last week and we had a wonderful time. In fact, the kids are wanting to stay at POP the next time we go back.

 

[VAYankee]

yes thank you for the new thread! We leave in just 9 days for our first stay at POP and the info in the first post was amazing. (Somewhat frustrated, at work and our internet has been on the blitz for three days - no checking the DIS boards!). I do have a question, I faxed our room request into POP this a.m., but the fax number I got from the "Resorts" tab is different from the one in the first post (4040 vs 4039). Should I re-fax our request (and annoy the room assigner?) or just hope it reaches the right person?

We are staying 10/3 - 10/10 with a preferred room & I was wondering which area is somewhat quieter but still within close distance to everything? We have 3 kids- DS8, DD6 & DD19mos.(@WDW). From the research I've been doing, it looks like the lakeside views are quieter but I'm not sure they are preferred rooms & I think its too late to change to a regular room (everythings booked online). Thanks for any info.n

There are rooms in the pref category on the courtyard side of 60's bldg 5, which would be quieter, but still very close (pref areas are hi-lighted in yellow):

Also, the courtyard side of 50's bldg 1 - if you don't mind trees blocking any view:

Same for some of the 70's bldg 10:

Might put the request:
1. quiet location
2. 4th floor
3. bldg #

Have a wonderful trip!

Yay! A new Pop thread!! We won't be back until December, but I still have to look at the Pop thread every day... it makes me stupid happy.

Thanks so much for all your hard work, Buckeye Gal!!

 

[Buckeye Gal]

Again, thank you, and you are very welcome!! It's always such a joy to hear that people have learned so much from MANY DISers here on this thread as well as knowing they had an awesome vacation! I just make sure all the good info is in one place for all of us to easily find....myself included!

I've read lots of success stories from people using the number in Post #1 (407.938.4039), so I personally don't think you have any need to fax again.

 

[Orangeandwild]

Thank you Buckeye Girl for the excellent work, I know how hard it is to keep info current on anything

Sorry about your job loss, but often a job loss leads you into a job you enjoy a lot more

Same here. I can not wait for December 7th. Even though I'll probably get there around 2 pm, I plan to spend the rest of the day just taking pictures of Pop. I can't wait to have that amazing Asian Chicken Salad or the Chicken Penne Alfredo. I booked quite awhile ago with Dreams but recently added an extra night and room location requests. I'm hoping to stay 4th floor (quiet), 50's (location and style), and pool view (better security instead of being on the back side)

 

[Tweevil]

I found you! And am stilllllll waiting for my trip.
Thanks for the great post and I will be checking in for more great info.

Thanks! That's what I'm counting on! I was unhappy with my job, so I really think there's only positive things to look forward to now!

HI!!

I faxed Pop a few weeks back with my room request - I used the number I found in the first post of this thread and it work perfectly!

 

[61292cna]

Thanx for the hard work & valuble information! I wish I had found this thread before our first trip to POP!!

 

[mousebit]

WOW! A new chapter already! And no wonder...I mean this is only the most friendly and informative thread on the DIS!

Kimberly, here's wishing you

only positive things to look forward to now!
