Hello there Roxanne,
Welcome to planDisney! In my opinion,
Disney's Saratoga Springs is a sleeper resort pick... my family loved it way more than we expected to! The lush green grounds and plentiful waterways and lakes are so gorgeous. Our favorite day ended up being one spent chilling by that amazing High Rock Springs Pool, and walking to the convenient Artist's Palette for some tasty pizza when we got hungry. The pool bar serves a delicious "Lava Smoothie" that I highly recommend.
What a practically perfect plan to have a summer barbeque right at your resort grounds! I'm happy to confirm that YES, there are barbeque grills available for guest use. At Saratoga Springs, charcoal grills are located at the Grandstand Pool, Congress Park, and the Carousel Barbecue Pavilions. These areas feature two charcoal barbecue grills, and a couple of picnic tables under a cover with ceiling fans and a water fountain. You are correct that you'll need to bring your own charcoal briquettes and matches, which are typically for sale at the
Artist's Palette shop.
My fellow panelist Anne Marie also mentioned you can check out grilling tools from the
Community Hall, if that's helpful? This is large resort, so I recommend having your
My Disney Experience app ready to go. The map can help you navigate the resort grounds easily.
Have a magical summer vacation at Disney World! Please visit us again at planDisney if we can help with any additional planning details or pixie-dusted advice.
Magical Memories Await,
Tami
