Treehouse Villas At Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort: Soft Opening – Photos & Exclusive Video

Hi everyone!

Yesterday was the first day that the Disney Vacation Club Treehouse Villas were in soft opening. We have some video and photos!

*UPDATE I now have photos and video from INSIDE a Treehouse taken on the official opening day available HERE!

The front sign (below, left) is at the entrance for those who are driving in. The boat dock (below, right) is serviced by the DVC resort ferry, which also makes a stop at the new dock next to the soon-to-open Paradiso 37.

Two treehouses below, which have the same feel as the originals from the outside. Inside, they are much more updated! (below, left). There are a few units which are handicapped accessible, with a long ramp that slopes slowly. (below, right).

The pool area is the same as it was before, except that the pool is no longer 8 feet deep and there are some newer touches (like the rock work) that tie the resort into Saratoga Springs (below left and right). The building is the same one as previous, according to an Imagineer working on the project. For those who remember the old Treehouse Villas, it is a real treat to be able to enjoy this area again.
