With kids she will really like the food court. It is set up in stations. One station has grilled foods (nuggets, hot dogs, pancakes, eggs, etc.) another station has Italian food (pizza, spaghetti, breadsticks, soup) another has salads and prepared food (chicken, mashed potatoes, ribs, corn) and the final one is the bakery (doughnuts, pies, cakes). Plus they have fresh fruit, chips, milk, cookies, bagel, veges, etc. in coolers in the food court area. You go select all your food and then pay for it as you exit the area. It has a large dining area. They have a legos table in the dining area where kids can play and they also have disney type movies running so it keeps kids busy.
There is a large playground area by the main pool. Older kids (7-9) seem to really like it. It is rustic and in the trees so it is well shaded. The pool is nice. Has a slide for the kids. And, there are numerous quiet pools throughout the resort. You can rent a scurry bike and/or paddle boats there at the dock, also.
The rooms are about 314 sq feet with a separate area for the shower and toilet. There are two pedestal sinks with a shelf above them. There isn't a formal closet but a clothes rack that is open and you can put suitcases on the floor. There is also an armoire with several drawers in it and the TV. There is a small table with two chairs and then two double beds. The trundle pulls out from under one of the double beds. Isn't big but is adequate for a smaller child.
AB section is heavy into the greenery. Reminds one of the old south. She might want to request a room close to the food court and bus stop area. Some of the AB buildings are a walk from the food court. We were in bldg. 15 and it was convenient. I think 14, 15, 16, and 18 are all fairly good locations.
Also, you can use the facilities at the POFQ. Younger kids really like the slide down there at the main pool. And, the playground area is a bit more for younger kids. Haven't seen the new food court but they say it is similar to the one at Riverside.
Bus transportation. If you can go to the first bus stop. That increases your chances of getting on and getting a seat during busy times. It picks up at FQ first and then goes to all 4 stops at Riverside. We have had few problems with the buses there. Soemtimes it depends on whether you just arrived as the bus was leaving. It is about 15 minutes between buses, normally.
Can't think of anything else. I will post if I do.
