    Visited WDW 13 yrs ago. I believe we went to WR & Campground to swim in the lake (for free) w/rope swing over the lake, & inner tubes, rented motor boats. Is this still available? Looking at this option instead of a Water Theme Park ticket purchas

    Hi, Michele!      I believe what you are recalling is what was Disney's first waterpark, "River Country."  With its Ol'  Swimmin' Hole, and laid back atmosphere, it gave you the feeling of stepping back into a lazy summer day.   Unfortunately, River Country is permanently closed, and your waterpark choices are now Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon.

    So many great memories at River Country, the old Discovery Island, Kitchen Kabaret in Epcot, Mr. Toad's Wild Ride in Magic Kingdom . . . Walt Disney World is always evolving, but I sure do miss some of the "oldie but goodie"  attractions and destinations!

    I hope you enjoy new discoveries in WDW and making new magical memories!

Meet the Panelist: Cathy, Ohio

Hi, I'm Cathy from Cleveland. I love to travel, especially in the winter to escape the cold of Ohio! My husband and 2 kids share my enthusiasm for travel, so we enjoy our adventures together whether it is sailing with Disney Cruise Line, running (or cheering!) at runDisney events, taking hula lessons at Aulani, or vacationing at the Walt Disney World which is our home away from home. I am proud to be a part of the planDisney team and cannot wait to share my tips and advice for a magical vacation
