The morning we left, while sitting in the room enjoying coffee, I hear a clicking sound and look over to where the coffee maker was plugged in…to see black SMOKE coming from the outlet. I unplugged it, and then a FLAME shot out of the outlet. I went down to inform the front desk and I was BRUSHED ASIDE like no big deal! I beg to differ! That could have been a DISASTROUS situation if I had been sitting outside on the balcony and didn’t unplug the coffee maker!!!! The TV also was not working properly…meaning, the only channel that had any volume was the channel that showed Disney park times!! I’m also not sure that we were given a room facing the lot where the dirty linens are left for pickup because I booked thru Expedia!!!
Boulder Ridge could use some upgrades, but room was very clean, quiet, and we loved first floor access to Disney buses, pool, and hotel lobby/store. The pool and hot tub were very nice and we used every day. We love the Wilderness Lodge area ambience, and was beautifully decorated for Christmas
Very clean, staff is super friendly, the property is easy to navigate

Wonderful Disney Vacay
The resort is beautiful and the staff are very friendly. The activities at the pool was great for the kids (games/music). The room was spacious in the villas. Great for large family. Only negative was our bed was very uncomfortable but luckily we were hardly in the room.
While the property was typical Disney excellence in terms of cleanliness and food options , the room location in comparison to the location of the elevators, and ice machine was quite cumbersome. I must also add ,having to pay to park my vehicle ( a per night fee ) was also a bit much.
The room was not that clean. The shower would not stay hot, kept going cold. They were doing roof construction on the roof starting at 8am after I ran the Disney 5K and was up at 3:30am....I was excited for a hot shower and a nap....that did not happen. Very disappointed in this property.
I stayed in the villas, so my room had a microwave, stove, oven, toaster, dishwasher, washer, dryer, vacuum and broom. 2 pools
Main restaurant served delicious BBQ in very large potions. Small, but fun arcades. Nice fitness room
Beautiful property, excellent service. Transportation to all Disney parks provided. Room had kitchenette that was really useful. It was very clean and provided all the essentials and even more. Very quiet and peaceful place. Lots of things to do with little ones. Would definitely recommend!
Wonderful room on Disney property. Very spacious considering they called it a studio. Had a queen bed and sofa with kitchenette. I would definitely come back here again.

Boulder Ridge could be a nice location
We could not get connecting rooms. If you are at the end of the hall it is a VERY long walk to elevator. Room furnishings average. Good size for 2 adults and up to 3 kids. View from our balcony was dirty laundry bins. And maintenance area.
