Re: Where to request for POFQ

I stayed in building 4 last year and it was right by the bus stop and a very short walk to the main buidling.

Re: Where to request for POFQ

We have stayed at POFQ twice and on opposite ends, it is true that it is a lovely resort and small enough to have a quaint feeling about it.
It is my favorite so far but next year we are staying at Wilderness Lodge (cant wait!!) so I may change my mind!!
Have a great time (as if you wouldn't)

Re: Where to request for POFQ

I'm really starting to get excited now. 50 more wake ups! which means in 4 or 5 days I pay in full! Then it's REAL!

And yes, I'm sure we will have fun

Re: Where to request for POFQ

Not only are the bus stops close by but what I also love about POFQ is the wonderful boat ride from the resort directly to DTD! We used this service tons while we were at POFQ...we avoided the crowded buses while going to and from DTD!

Re: Where to request for POFQ

Dh has stayed in several different buildings at POFQ and said there can't possibly be a bad building choice. We had a courtyard view last time and it was fairly quiet. We didn't hear any pool noise til we went outside and even then it was minimal. I hauled a 8, 6, 4, and 1 1/2 yr old w/ me. It wasn't too bad, even when we had to climb 3 flights.

Re: Where to request for POFQ

Building three and four are nice and close to everything inlcuding the bus stop. Building seven is closest to the buses but furthest from the check in and main areas. I have stayed in buildings two and one and both were fine. Doesn't matter really. Everything is super close.

Two, five and six are not bad eithers....again, they are all close. One is the furthest from the buses and 7 is furthest from the main areas, but closest to the buses. 2, 5 and six are pretty cetrally located. Three and four are ideal.

Re: Where to request for POFQ

DD wanted me to ask, which would be closest to the pool, but also close to bus stop

Re: Where to request for POFQ

Sue - thanks for posting this question! DH and I will be there in November for our first trip without the kids, and I was wondering if I should put in a building request.
Based on everyone's answers, I'm not going to bother, since it sounds like we will enjoy anything!

You'll be there right before me, so you can give me any good current tips!

Thanks everyone else. I agree, it should be a really good resort/trip.

Closest to pool and the bus stop is building 5 or 4. 5 is closer to the pool and 4 is closer to the bus stop, but still everything is SUPER close to both buildings.

I noticed you would be there right after us! We're only going for 2 days, so we won't overlap. I will do my best to remember to post after we get back.
