It may seem unbelievable, but for 16 years, a couple lived full-time inside Disneyland here in California!
Owen and Dolly Pope were among the first employees of the park. Walt wanted them to help with the animals at Disneyland…especially the horses.
Walt Disney offered them this unique opportunity to live in a little home on the property.
They lived there between 1955 and 1971. And participated in some of Disneyland’s iconic attractions by training and preparing the animals.
But after 16 years, they were asked to move to Florida to help with the opening of Disney World.
Even today, the “Pope House” still exists in an area reserved for Disneyland park employees. It was even moved in 2016 for the creation of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge!
It’s not open to the public but if they made this into an AirBNB…they would a make a FORTUNE!
