Disney's Vero Beach Resort may be a couple hours away from its fellow Vacation Club locations, but that doesn't mean guests should feel lost while they are visiting. This sign post will help point you in the right direction, whether you are heading to the beach, Hilton Head, or the Wilderness Lodge.
The Frontierland Disney Vacation Club kiosk takes on the persona of the headquarters for the Getaway Stagecoach Line. Before boarding your coach for a trip out west, you may want to read the posted disclaimer, which only gets more outrageous as the point size decreases.
The final paragraph reads, "We will not accept responsibility for acts by highwaymen, savages, being broken down or any unforeseen conditions that may result in being delayed or not arriving to your destination. We cannot be expected to notify next of kin in the event of a catastrophic occurrence or unexpected fatality."
Vero Beach sits in Indian River County, so named for the lagoon that runs through it. The area is world famous for its citrus which makes up a large share of the industry. Disney's Vero Beach Resort embraces the history of the surrounding area, and locally-inspired details can be found in almost every corner of the property. Even the tables in the lobby are created to look like citrus packing crates, printed with the Indian River name. As many of the local citrus growers donated material for Disney to use, the Orchid label is most likely the Orchid Island Growers Inc. company, which is located in Wabasso.
While Disney's Vero Beach Resort might lie a couple hours away from Walt Disney World, it's nice to see it has those familiar Disney touches, even down to those wonderful trash cans.
This framed photo found in the Germany pavilion shows Franz Goebel and Walt Disney posing with a Goofy figurine back in 1955, less than three decades prior to the opening of Epcot's own Germany pavilion.
Along the Walt Disney World Railroad tracks heading into Frontierland, you'll find this Outpost 792 - Desperation.
