Disney Saratoga Springs Resort and Spa Pool
The grounds and views from Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort are just beautiful. Once the kids start to see all of the fun they are going to have on their trip, they will be over-joyed. The High Springs Pool is the main Family pool that makes up the Disney Saratoga Springs Resort and Spa Pool and is located near the entrance to the Saratoga Springs Resort. The second Family Pool is the Paddock Pool. Both of these pools have great water slides and the Paddock Pool has a kids splash zone with 2 small water slides. More Quiet pools are in Congress Park and the Grandstand pool is ready for the races. Hot tubs are ready for the adults to sink in and take in warmth of water to relax and enjoy while the kids are off playing in the water.

Saratoga Springs Pools, water slides and kids splash park
High Rock Spring Pool
Close to the entrance of the Saratoga Springs Resort, where dining is abundant and the Senses Spa is readily available, you will find the largest Family Pool, the High Rock Spring Pool. On one side of the High Rock Spring Pool, kids can enter with ease in the zero-entry access, or play in the kids' splash area with wonderful Donald Duck Water, shooting fountains of fun with a small water slide entering one section of the main pool. Talking about Slipping and Sliding, take a trip down the 128-foot water slide offering a fun experience for kids a little bit older and is also great for Adults. Rest those tired aching muscles in one of the 2 large Hot Tubs located in the High Rock Spring pool area. The warmth of the Bubbling Jacuzzi Water on a cool Florida evening makes for a great end to each and every day.

High Rock Spring Pool - Water Slides
Water Slides make the Family pool more fun and at the High Rock Spring Pool, there are 2 Water Slides. The 128-foot water slide is the largest and built around a rock formation. The steps to this long water slide are at the backside of the pool and lead to the top of the rocks where you start. The second water slide is much smaller and great for the little ones to slip down into the pool.
High Rock Spring Pool - Kids Splash Zone
The kids splash zone at the High Rock Spring Pool consists of a soft pad to walk on, Donald Duck to keep an eye on things and multiple pop-jet fountains. Kids love to wait for the fountains to burst into the air so they can run through and get soaked.
Paddock Pool
The Paddock Pool is also a Family favorite with zero-entry to the pool making this another great option for the toddlers to play in. The Paddock pool at Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort is not as large as the High Rock Spring Pool, it makes up for its size with a larger 146-foot waterslide that starts at the top of a large water tower and curves round and round until you get to the splash zone. If you have little kids with you, this is a great place to be. A fun Kids Water Play area is right behind the large water slide at the Paddock Pool. Shallow water surrounds a small climbing fort with two small kiddie slides. A Hot Tub is available at the Paddock Pool as well. If you get hungry, the Paddock Grill is located right beside the pool. Pick up your favorite drink and get a hamburger and some fries to hold you over until dinner. The Paddock Pool is located in The Paddock on the other side of Willow Lake.

Backstretch Pool
The Backstretch Pool is considered to be one of the Quiet Pools at the Saratoga Springs Resort and while the main pool at the Backstretch would be considered a more relaxed area, right beside the pool is a large Kids Splash Zone full of Bubbling Fountains and Race Horses spraying water all day long. This is a fun area for the kids to splash while the adults enjoy a little more quiet setting. There are not any Water Slides at the Backstretch Pool but there is a hot tub for the adults. Be sure to get some great outdoor grilled delights at the Backstretch Bar,
- Quiet Pool
- Pool Bar & Grill
- Kids Splash Park with bubbling fountains
- Hot Tub
Quiet Pools
I would consider the Congress Park Pool and the Treehouse Villa Pool the two more subdued Pools at Saratoga Springs Resort in Disney World. There are not any Kids Water fun areas at either of these pools which make them perfect for adults to enjoy and not have as much noise as some of the larger family pools.
Lifeguards
You will find Lifeguards at all of the pools where there are Water Slides. They do a great job of watching the kids but remember, they are still your responsibility so keep an eye on them while they are playing in the water.
