Unidentified GCH outdoor seating?

[shortnsweet435]

I have scoured the internet, looking at photos, google earth, hotel maps, room views, and youtube walkthroughs, but I haven't found much except small references. There is outdoor seating at GCH, a few steps south of the DCA guest entrance, that you can see from the Grizzly Peak walking path inside the park, near Rushin River Outfitters. You can sort of see it in this 360 photosphere from Google. I was just wondering, where is this, and is it private? Is it outdoors to White Water Snacks? Napa Rose Lounge? Has anyone been there? We've been so many times but sometimes I feel that we haven't explored enough...

TIA

I can't get the photo to work but the description sounds kind of like the Napa Rose Lounge patio to me. Haven't been there myself (yet!) but I know there is a small outdoor fire pit seating area from where you can kind of see into DCA Grizzly Peak area.

Whitewater snacks does have a semi-covered outdoor seating area that is loosely fenced in, but you can see between the fencing into the park.

Oops on my part! Can't be Napa Rose, OP said south of the GCH entrance! Sorry

Yeah, Whitewater Snacks has an outdoor patio, you can see the pool and part of the parks. That's probably it.

Based on the location of the photo this is probably it. WWS outdoor patio. Open to anyone.

Thanks everyone! We are planning a longer trip than normal for our next vaca, so that we can have an extra relaxing no park/resort day. We were just wondering where we can relax and view into the park on that day without tickets. We're staying VGC but our last stay there had a not so great fence/path view behind goofy's sky school.

Be sure to make a villa request in advance with Member Services.
6504 is best studio, with an amazing view of DCA. The same view is available from the viewing patio, available to all VGC and GCH guests.

Side note. Whitewater snacks is one of the best kept secrets at Disneyland. It isnt very busy, very good, and reasonably priced for Disney standards. I love breakfast there
