Resorts on or near Crescent Lake are some of the most popular places to stay. These include: Beach Club, Yacht Club, Boardwalk, Swan, Swan Reserve, and Dolphin. Take a look at more details on why these are the best resorts HERE.

First, guests can take a short walk to EPCOT. You can take a slightly longer walk to Hollywood Studios or take a leisure boat ride to either park. Exiting the park at International Gateway and walking back after a long day in the park is amazing! No fighting crowds for the buses or monorail!

In addition, you'll find wonderful entertainment at Disney's Boardwalk Resort,

Being so close to Epcot is mostly a good thing. However, sometimes Disney needs to test fireworks in the late hours of the evening. This can cause sleep disruptions, especially if you have young children.

Currently, Disney has WARNING signs posted in the EPCOT Resort lobbies stating: "Beginning at 10:00 pm on Tuesday, September 1, through 1:30 am on Wednesday, September 2, Guests will hear sporadic fireworks due to routine testing."

"We apologize for this late-night inconvenience."

Since the affected resorts are located near EPCOT, we assume fireworks testing will take place at EPCOT. However, we are not aware of any upcoming changes to EPCOT's show, Luminous.

EPCOT Resorts warns of firework testing from 10:00 pm on September 1st until 1:30 am on September 2nd.
