Walt Disney World Resorts Port Orleans Riverside at Dawn

It is sad that Disney Vacations are my most costly vice. I got hooked when I was little, and have spent many thousands of dollars on my habit ever since.
That fact aside, here's a little compilation of footage I took at my favorite resort. The last few times I went I was still working a 3rd shift job, so I often found myself wandering around at four in the morning. This, I feel, is when the true charm of the place really comes out. So now, here is a short stroll around the grounds of Port Orleans Riverside.

Hi - I was wondering if the music in this video is from the resort? Is there a cd I can purchase that contains this resorts music?

It almost sounds like the music from the ferries you can take to Disney Downtown.

Very relaxing and reminds me of this resort. Please let me know where I can get a copy of the music!

Thanks.

You can jump a boat from here to Downtown! Really fun way to travel. Looks like everyone else covered the rest. My Lady and I are in our 30's and stay here often. Nice Riverwalk way and very relaxed southern charm. Disney really caught it here. Also the water fall at the Ole Man River pool drowns out noise and is a great spot to read or tip one back!

Port Orleans Riverside is our home away from home. You really did capture the essence of the resort. This is one of my ALL TIME favorite videos on YouTube.

I love this video. You did a great job on it. Love the music too! Port Orleans is one of my favorite places in the whole world. Watching this video brings back so many happy memories.

This is still the best vid on this resort...! I want to bring my banjo to Port Orleans RS and sit and play on a bench.

Thanks!

You wouldn't happen to know what happened to the water at this resort would you? I was there last summer and the water was completely black - it was quite sad to see the water so incredibly dirty. I recall the first time I stayed at this resort the water looked fairly clean and there were so many wild animals (ducks, rabbits, etc) all over the place. There were no wild creatures to be seen...they even removed the duck food dispenser machine. What happened??

Love this hotel but hate the lines from the parks by bus...

I wish I could go NOW! My husband & I had planned for a Disney World honeymoon & had choses Port Orleans-Riverside for our hotel, but we had to postpone the honeymoon til 3 months after the wedding since we had to wait for hubby to get his US visa. Right before we booked our plane tickets we found out about my pregnancy with our twin boys, so we decided to postpone the trip (again). Hopefully we'll be good to go by the end of this year. Thanks for this video.. it kinda cured my Disney ache :)

@hotone23 Yeah, I don't think I'd be able to pull it off now since I haven't worked 3rd shift in nearly three years. But at the time, I was up and runnin' every morning by 4:00.
