Parterre Place At Disney's Port Orleans Riverside Resort: The Everyday Adventures Of The Purple Van February 15, 2010

Come on...tell the truth...how many of you would recognize this as a Disney Resort?
It's Parterre Place at Disney's Port Orleans Riverside.

Riverside is the larger of the Port Orleans resorts and has a little over 2000 rooms divided into two main sections: Alligator Bayou--which is rustic and Magnolia Bend which is made up of majestic buildings like this one.

Parterre Place is one of four huge manor houses in the Magnolia Bend area or "parish."
Each has about 250 rooms. As you drive into Riverside, you can see Parterre Place and its fountain off to your right.

A "parterre" is a formal garden usually associated with a large manor house...it looks like Parterre Place is appropriately named!...
