Do any of the quiet pool areas have actual pool bars? I keep seeing people remarking about drink stations; not sure if they're referring to an actual pool bar.

Is the walkway to DTD open now? I can't find confirmation anywhere (just old posts).

Do you happen to remember which room/building #? Thanks for the reply!

The paddock looks to be the largest section. Is there a certain building you prefer?

We just booked a "semi" last minute trip to WDW from May 13-19th. Using DVC and staying at Saratoga Springs (it was all we could get). Anyone have any good tips, room and area suggestions for when we make room requests? We don't mind a walk, so being close to concierge/carriage house is not...
