Hi Marsha,
I am so happy to hEAR you will soon be experiencing the thrill and excitement of sleeping in one of the Treehouse Villas at
Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa. These unique and spacious Villas are located in a picturesque area of the Resort and make a perfect home-away-from-home while touring Walt Disney World with extended family.
Marsha, when traveling from your Treehouse Villa to
The Artist's Palette, the Resort's main Quick-Service dining location, or the
High Rock Spring Pool located adjacent to the Carriage House main check-in area, you will likely want to use the Resort's internal bus shuttle which links the Treehouse Villas to the rest of the Resort. While you would be able to walk if you wished, it would be a rather lengthy distance; likely about a 15 minute walk depending upon your specific location in the Treehouse section. Therefore, if you are traveling with someone with reduced walking ability, you will definitely want to take the internal shuttle.
There are two shuttle bus locations in the Treehouse Villas section of the Resort. I suggest making a request in advance of arrival to be located as close as possible to one of these bus stops. While there is no guarantee, Disney will certainly do the very best to accommodate your request if at all possible.
Also, keep in mind that there is also a separate small pool in the Treehouse Villas section of the Resort which you may want to visit during your stay.
I hope this information is helpful for you, Marsha. Enjoy your Treehouse vacation!
Trish
