    Cabana Rentals

    We enjoyed our rental last October at GF; only one other cabana was rented for a partial day. However, one caveat--beware of a very windy day! Our attendant had to close our cabana because of the wind--it was strange to be inside. Snacks were okay, just chips and there were plenty of drinks...

    Like others have written, I feel I should know the answer to my question, but I've gotten mixed responses! Are both pools open at GF? We are arriving on October 17th, no parks, just enjoying the resort before hunkering down for a Chicago Covid winter. Thank you for your help!

    Does the Peoplemover actually have a wait time?

    Absolutely remember that! Perfect ride around 2 or 3 times with a cranky 5 AND 40 year old who still love to do it at now nearly 25 and ahem...a little older! Perfect place to plan Buzz Lightyear strategy, too.

    For those with Cruises before May 31

    Waiting for a call from concierge to re-book our Easter sailing. I am undergoing chemo, thus at higher risk, and hope to sail later in the year. I am disappointed--could use the warmth and sunshine!

    Sorry for the late reply on why 57--Actually we do 57 to 24 to 75 (through Paducah, Nashville, Chattanoogs and then through Georgia) We just don't like 65; sorry Indiana friends.
