What building is THE closest to the Pepper Market? I like to refill my mug before going to bed and I'd like a short walk after a long day in the parks.

Is the Pepper Market the only place to refill mugs or are there other places to do this?

Thanks!

 

[Buzz2001]

Cabana 9b and parts of casita 1 are the closest to the PM.

You can fill your mug at the pool bar and snack bar, the Pepper Market, Francisco's and the little take out window just outside the entrance to the Pepper Market.

Subscribing as we go to CSR in August and I want to keep up with all the tips.

By the way Buzz you do a great job.

Two quick questions

Can you get bed rails for children from the hotel?

And, do they have life vests for children at the pool or should we bring our own?

Thanks!!

 

[Buzz2001]

Can you get bed rails for children from the hotel? Yes

And, do they have life vests for children at the pool or should we bring our own? Yes, they have them available.

Birnbaum's WDW mentions a short nature trail at CSR. Does anyone know where that is located?

My husb and I are staying at CSR for 3 nights at the end of March. It will be our first stay there. The Polynesian is my absolute favorite, but we were just there in Nov and those peak rates are too crazy. We've stayed at the CBR a number of times, and although I love the theming, colors, and happy, festive feel, Buzz's info and pics of Coronado Springs convinced me to give it a try. We've visited the resort and strolled the grounds, and now I am looking forward to actually staying there.

 

[Buzz2001]

Unless they are talking about this path,

that's the only thing I can think of. I've never heard of anything, sorry.

Buzz,

What is that path? Is it crossing from Cabanas to the Dig Site?

This path crosses from the ranchos behind the Dig Site to the Cabanas. No surrey bikes allowed. I never walked down this path since it always looked to woodsy.

WOW! Reading through this site, Buzz2001 (great site!) and several TR's, would like to try CSR for the 2 nights before we begin a BWV this March. Have really never wanted to stay at CSR because of a friend's bad experience and concern about the building locations - some are so far. I have MS so would be happy to pay for a preferred location to be near buses and food courts.

Any suggestions what reservation request/s might work best? Thanks so much! Would need a definite non-smoking room

Do corner rooms have 2 windows like CBR, POR and FQ?

Thanks again!

 

[GreyStr0ke]

Yeah CSR does have corner rooms and they have two windows. I had one in December and when we arrived each window had about 4 towel animals in it.

I would request cabana 9b or casita 1. Lots of corner rooms because the hallways are not straight, they angle in and out. All buildings are non smoking except for cabana 9a. Click on my site below for pics.

Is there any way to find out what groups or companies are holding conventions at CSR?
