Sometimes, a Disney World vacation isn’t just about the theme parks (though those are pretty great too!). It’s also about what you do outside of the parks, as well. And if you’re staying at a Disney hotel, you’ll have a lot of options for things to do back at the hotel, like movies under the stars, crafts, and other activities. Right now, guests at Saratoga Springs Resort can even perform nest checks on bird nests on Wednesday mornings!
One great amenity to take advantage of is the pool at your hotel! Disney recently announced a pool closure that may affect your upcoming trip.
Beginning in January 2023 and heading into late March 2023, the High Rock Spring Pool at Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa will be closed for refurbishment. The On The Rocks Pool Bar will also be closed during that time.
The High Rock Spring Pool is one of two “feature” pools at the hotel, but the other feature pool, the Paddock Pool as well as three other “leisure” pools will remain open during this temporary closure.
Of course, these refurbishments are subject to change, so stay tuned to DFB for all the latest updates!
