Hiya, Kelly! Welcome back to planDisney! I'm so happy to see you back here with another great planning question.
Eeeeek! Kelly! In just
days, you'll be transported to the beautiful, pixie-dusted Pacific Northwest at
Boulder Ridge Villas at Disney's Wilderness Lodge, ready to embark on your magical adventure at the Most Magical Place on Earth. I know you and your family must be
so excited. With its serene vibes, beautifully refurbished rooms, fantastic dining options and location within a short, scenic boat ride of Magic Kingdom, this Resort is the perfect, peaceful home away from home right in the middle of the magic. I can't imagine a better way to celebrate a special birthday with your oh-so-special family members, so let's get this planning party started!
As a physical therapist, I love chatting about maximizing mobility (and magic), and I think you will be happy to hear that your mom's electric mobility scooter will be able to fit nicely right in your room, regardless of your room type. If you and your family are staying in multiple Deluxe Studios, you should find space for her scooter right in the room's entryway. If your family is staying in a Two-Bedroom Villa, you can tuck the scooter away in the entryway, the living room or one of the bedrooms.
Since most electric mobility scooters have a standard charging unit and plug-in, you should be able to charge your mom's scooter at any outlet in the room. However, if you find that it's challenging to safely negotiate around the scooter, any strollers, and all nine birthday-partying family members, I suggest discussing any possible alternative options with a Cast Member at the front desk. A dream is a wish your heart makes, and I hope all of your family's vacation wishes come true.
Kelly, what I love most about Boulder Ridge is its peacefulness. While you get to enjoy all the amenities of Wilderness Lodge, being tucked away in a separate building is what I love so much about this Resort. Be sure to carve out a little time to enjoy the rustic charm and serenity of this quaint Resort. Enjoy the seating areas in the lobby, rock in a rocking chair right outside the building, and be sure to check out the Carolwood Pacific Railroad Room. These spots are far less crowded than the main lobby at Wilderness Lodge, and they're the perfect spots to sip coffee before heading to the parks or unwind at the end of the best Disney day. Enjoy!
I hope this helps, Kelly, and I hope you and your family have the most unforgettable vacation making magical memories together! Please feel free to stop by any time with any questions you may have along the way.
Paint with all the colors of the wind,
Mandy
