What resort was this?

[PolyRob]

Can anyone help identify which Disney resort this is? A friend showed me a picture from their first trip to Disney World in 1992, but cannot recall what resort they stayed at. I know there were only a select number open at that time:

Disney's Contemporary Resort
Disney's Polynesian Village Resort
Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground
Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa
Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort
Disney's Yacht Club Resort
Disney's Beach Club Resort
Disney's Port Orleans Resort – French Quarter
Disney's Old Key West Resort
Disney's Port Orleans Resort – Riverside

I could definitely rule a bunch out: Poly, Fort Wilderness, Grand Flo, Yacht & Beach, OKW, etc

I initially thought it was a Contemporary Garden Wing, but the roof and exterior staircase threw me off. Could it have been Riverside when it was Disney's Dixie Landings Resort? It looked like those were double sliding balcony doors so that also threw me off.

The old tree villas?

Is that Shades of green?

Does sort of look like the shape of one of the SOG pools.

Scroll all the way to the bottom where it shows the pics of the resorts. It's #8, I think.

Yeah, that would make it Shades of Green. Well, Disney Inn.

For clarification, I was only guessing as I have never been. I was just comparing the pictures. So I have no idea if it really is SoG, I just thought the pics looked similar.

AHHH Thank you!

It never even crossed my mind and I was considering Shades of Green a 1994 resort when it became a Military resort!

I just looked at Google maps. The same pool is still at SOG.

It is...however resurfaced many times since

The story goes that they used to find large reptilian critters in there occasionally...lots of them on the golf courses

Pest control is much better now than it was then
