It’s on Main Street USA where Walt Disney and his family used to hide out. Walt’s daughter Diane Disney Miller revealed more little-known facts about the place, which is never open to the public. It still looks today as it did then.

It’s decorated with antiques, cranberry red glass lampshades, vintage instruments and a grandfather clock… the decor, it was all little things that they picked up when they were traveling around the country various times, and it was decorated by Emile Kuri, who had decorated many of the films, including ’20,000 Leagues Under the Sea,’ and it was lovingly done. It was really a very cozy, family place…if there were special people in the park, Mother and Dad would go out and they would invite them up. Early, it was during ‘Davy Crockett,’ I remember there was some event there that day and Fess Parker and Buddy Ebsen were both out there for it, and Dad was looking out that window and saw them and he said, ‘Hey, come on up!’…there was a fire pole in it, it’s not there now, but there was a door into the closet area that had a fire pole, like the firemen would have, and he showed it to them and said, ‘Why don’t you guys slide down that?’ People would say, did your father ever do that? I’m sure he didn’t.

The lamp in the window is always on to show his spirit is always present! But that the light is turned off when Disney’s daughters are in the park. Diana herself died in November, so maybe it’s always on now.
