Re: Which Moderate and why
My favorite of all of them has been French Quarter- the buildings were fabulous and the feel of the whole resort was much more quaint than the others. I did not care at all for cbr - too big and we were far from absolutely everything.

And when you walk aroudn the property, and there are reeds and waterlillies and ivy and flowers and thick grass and mossy winding paths and secret playgrounds, and all that. Well, if we happened upon a resort like POR at some location besides WDW, we would STILL think we had found a treasure!

Re: Which Moderate and why
We have stayed at POR, POFQ, and CBR. I know I'm in the miniority but I would choose CBR. We love it! FQ is nice with a great pool but we had a bad experience with Mousekeeping in May so that will be out for us from now on. We love the atmosphere at CBR and with the new Pirate pool being built that will get us to go back.

Re: Which Moderate and why
I've done both sides of Port Orleans, and I really loved FQ much better. The only thing you miss from Riverside is a full service restaurant, which we didnt care for anyway when we ate there. FQ is small, and charming, and the pool/rec area is awesome. Also, Since they are sister resorts, you can stay at one and play at the other one day if you wish. Another tidbit to keep in mind is that both Riverside and FQ usually share buses to the parks, but FQ is almost always the first to get picked up on the way there (so you actually get a seat) and the first to drop off (so you don't have to go for a long useless ride at the end of a long day in the park). That experience also affects my opinion greatly!

Re: Which Moderate and why
I voted CSR - and thats because its my fave, theming wise. I love the grounds so much too.
Theming and environment is important to me. I think the other mods are equally as fab amenities wise, and a little walking at CSR doesn't bother me, so I go on theming. |

Re: Which Moderate and why
POR! It's quiet and I don't find it to be too big. I've never had a problem with the buses..always go to the main stop at the front of the resort and I love the theming! Convenient boat to DTD:)

Re: Which Moderate and why
It's funny how many diverse opinions we have here! I like CSR the most and like CBR the least. I also like POR MUCH more than POFQ.

Re: Which Moderate and why
Well if you had asked me last month I would say POFQ. (we stayed there in Feb) and I just
d it! It was small, quiet and overall really nice (rooms needed a little updating)BUT, since I just got back from CSR . . . I picked that . . . we really d it! The room was new and fresh, the food court was AWESOME, the pool top notch, with a pool/snack bar that was great!I am hoping to post my TR in the next day or so and I took lots of pics! POR is just too big for us (DD8 & DD4's little legs don't like to walk too far to get a snack or drink )

CBR -- its great, love the theme. . .don't go until after SEptember 2008 though as they are renovating the pool - I bet the pool will be awesome, I hear its based on Pirates of the Carribean.

Re: Which Moderate and why
Ooh - didn't know about the change of theme for the CBR pool! We'll have to keep it in mind when the boys get old enough that a well-themed pool is important. Right now, as long as it's wet, they're happy - and so we're staying at Values for the next few years.
We've only stayed at CSR, which I enjoyed, but I'd really like to stay at POFQ. I'm confused, though The poll is showing POR and PORR - what's PORR? ![]()
