Guess I should have specified my husband has back issues so we almost always pay for a preferred room. In comparison almost every standard room will be a hike, but this one wasn’t bad at all. Sounds like two votes for 85!I liked building 85, Magnolia Bend. I know above poster said it was a hike to main building but I actually didn't feel like it was. The bus stop is right behind the building, bridge to the pool is right there. I requested a corner room and got it, which was nice because it had more windows but that wouldn't have made a difference really since I rarely open the shade. Here is a good web site to check all things POR. https://www.portorleans.org/riverside-info.php
We had booked a standard view and requested a room close to the main pool with a nice view. We got both requests. We were in Magnolia Bend with a sideways view of the quiet pool and a straight ahead view of a grassy area. It was very close to the bridge to Old Man Island and the lobby.I have a standard room booked at Port Orleans Riverside this summer. Has anybody ever put in a room request there? What are your favorite sections/buildings?
