Re: your favorite/least favorite resort?

My most favourite would be POR...where we stayed our first time and it will always be a special memory.
And I would have to say my least favourite would be All Sports.

Re: your favorite/least favorite resort?

Most favorite by far is Fort Wilderness. Remember RVing and camping are 2 different things.

Least is All Star Sports. The bus situation alone gives me a headache.

Re: your favorite/least favorite resort?

I really dont have a disliking for any of the resorts I have stayed at yet: CBR, WL, POP, Poly.... but.... if I had to pick a Fav...

My most Fav would have to be the Poly for obvious reasons!!!

Iam not really into values and so I would rank the All Stars on the bottom (even though I haven't stayed there, I hope I never do)

But AS Sports would have to be the resort that least interests me and one that I would NEVER book, no matter how cheap!

Some other resorts that don't interest me are: FW, CSR, POR, POFQ, BW

Awwww.... My DS7 and I love camping, have been going since he was 3. We are hatching a plan to camp at WDW, but so far DW is exercising her veto priviledge. He and I might go and do it ourselves, but I need to take the DW for the F&W festival without DS to balance it out. Either way, I win!!

My DH knows better than to suggest camping at WDW. They do go camping and enjoy it. I do go out and visit at the campground but I don't stay long. It's good guy time for them.

Sounds exactly like my DW. She will come visit us on the trail or at the campsite, but will not stay. I figured camping at WDW would be the ultimate!!!

We have read a lot of negative reviews of Contemporary, but they all seem to be pre-refurb. I would like to know more about your stay there.

One person to ask here is Ready2Go, that is where he usually stays when he goes to WDW and I Think he usually books a Tower Room.

Read one of his WDW TR's.

Re: your favorite/least favorite resort?

My Favorite Resort would be the Grand Floridian even though i have never been able to stay there and my least favorite would have to be the Pop century... There is nothing wrong with it jut if i had to choose one that would be it.

I love the Contemporary and have stayed there quite a bit. For me, MK view in the Tower is the best. I like the idea of getting out of bed, hitting Chef Mickey's for breakfast and getting on the monorail and going. There are no rooms far away from anything. It's all right in the tower. Need something from the store? It's right there. Want a few places to eat? It's right there. There is no walking outside to get anywhere unless you need the bus to HS or AKL. I drive myself and use the valet parking. So, my car is right up front when I need it. I don't have to walk much except to change monorails when going to Epcot.

If we want a break during the afternoon, we can rent a boat and go out on the lagoon. At night, I can watch the castle change colors. I have a great view of Tomorrowland.

The room refurbs are a plus. I could go on an on about why I like this as my favorite.

If you like to walk the grounds outside...this is not the resort for you. The Poly and GF are definitely better there. Not a big deal to me.
