Changed Resort

With our countdown in the 50's we now are going to Saratoga Springs Resort instead of Old Key West. Have never stayed at either, but since my Daughters Father in Law has decided that even though he is ill he wants to go because he doesnt know how much time he has left and if he doesnt go to see the Grand kids there he will be sorry. So we have changed to be able to stay where they were able to get reservations with his Brother & Wife. Now I will be looking up the stuff on Saratoga Springs.

SSR is our home resort and found it very relaxing. We usually have a studio, these are slightly smaller then OKW studios. SSR can seem a little spread out too. The plus side, I think, is that the facilities are a little newer

I've stayed at Saratoga Springs twice and absolutely loved it. We get
a 1 bedroom which has full kitchen; separate stand-up shower; whirlpool tub;
and washer/dryer. The grounds are gorgeous and very relaxing !

DH's Aunt and cousin just returned from Saratoga and loved it. They said it's relaxing and comfortable. They are DVC members and it is their home resort, ut it was the ir 1st time staying there - the other 2 times they stayed at OKW instead. They like it more than OKW.

No matter what, I hope you'll all have a wonderful time!

Thanks for the imput, do you hear a lot of noise from DTD since it is so close? I guess it depends on which area you are in. The pictures look lovely, I went in and looked up the pictures and it looks like the Grandkids will like the play area, and pool. I am happy at any of the resorts it is nice to try a new place. We spent many trips at CB , have been to WL with them on their DVC trips, and once at BC. otherwise we usually go to PC. One trip we had FW because PC was full up. So this will be another new adventure at Disney Resorts.
