We've been upgraded to woods view rooms on the MK side before they were called fireworks view rooms and it was nice to be able to see the fireworks from our room. Not sure I would pay up for it though since we don't spend much time in our room, if we are at the resort we are usually in the lobby or at the pool.
We have had a few standard view rooms that are now considered "fireworks" views so they can charge more for them. Honestly, we have never been the type to pay for a view. I find it rather disturbing that the new categories seem to have very few "resort" views available, formerly standard view.
This is true. We stayed at Wilderness Lodge this weekend and had a great time. I never really worry about my view but it is nice to get a good one. We had booked a "nature view" months ago that got converted to a resort view. I requested a higher floor. We ended up on the 1st floor looking out at a pond. I'm kinda used to making requests and they never get honored but I don't let it bother me, they are only requests. On the positive when on the 1st floor I never had to wait for an elevator and the Roaring Fork and the laundry room were right down the hall from us!
That’s great thanks, I’ll definitely change to water/courtyard view. I had a room several years ago above the smokehouse, service area and really didn’t like it. As a very light sleeper it wasn’t for me.
It‘s usually not too long after New Year’s Day. We were ready there 1/2/20 and it came down the next night on the 3rd. I just happened to ask the CM at the concierge desk on the morning of the 3rd when it was coming down and he said that night. They arrive around 11 pm to start the process. We hung out and watched, with drinks in our hands and relaxing in the rocking chairs near the fireplace. It was a totally unique experience. I hope that you get to see it! Ask when you check in.
We stopped at Geyser Point for lunch today. There was a card on the table that advertised the margarita flight, which my sister and I shared. It was good.
The menu onsite was different than what’s shown in the APP. I was glad the steak sandwich was there , I had it last visit and it’s amazing.We stopped at Geyser Point for lunch today. There was a card on the table that advertised the margarita flight, which my sister and I shared. It was good.
The turkey sandwich is back, but it is not listed on the menu.
Yep first night here. Husband what the heck kind of alarm did you set.
Ha my husband said the same thing! He thought I set a very powerful alarm on my phone.
