BCV in Oct -- When are you going?

[sam08223]

We're headed to BCV for the 1st time the last week of Oct -- It seems like that's years away. When are you going? and what do you think the best thing about BCV will be? Looking forward to lots of trip reports once BCV is open in July.

[nydizfan]

Hey , we will be there Sept 15 - 20 . We also cant wait for some reports. We are OKW owners, but decided to try out the new kid on the block. We expect it to be fun. We love Stormalong Bay. .. dave

We rented points and will be at BCV the first week in Oct!! I can hardly stand the wait until the first reports come trickling in in July when it opens. There's a batch of really good photos out there of the rooms that I look at daily (almost), but would kill for a few photos of the landscaping, quiet pools, balcony views, etc.

I really hope SAB is not too crowded to enjoy. I'm purposely going to purchase 4 day ph's rather than 5 day so we'll be forced to spend one day relaxing at the pool. My luck a record-breaking hurricane will occur that one pool day :(

Also, I have one really odd question. Do the villas have a pizza cutter? It seems they have everything else needed to cook with, but we'll probably buy a few frozen gourmet pizzas for one of the quick meals we intend to fix.

We will be there July 7-17. Hope to add points there before the increase if NY is approved.

[Love Tigger]

We're going the first week in November. Like everyone else, I'm eagerly waiting for trip reports and outside pictures.

OKW owners going 10/11/2002 (first night for MNSSHP) to experience the new kid on the DVC block. :bounce: waiting for the July reports. :bounce:

[Mattsmom]

We're going 10/31-11/4. It's our first trip Home!!!:D

We are new BCV members who had every intention of banking our first year's points and taking a nice lonng vacation in the summer of 2003. It wasn't long after the paperwork was signed that I started to plan how we could get there this year. We now have reservations for a two bedroom villa for 4 nights between Christmas and New Years. We have never been to Disney World at that time of year and are very excited.

Question for those that have been there during this period: Is it unreasonable to expect that we may have a day or two that we could swim at the end of December?

[allicat]

We will be going the 3rd week! My sister is getting married at Disney and we will be staying at BCV with my parents. We are new owners- just signed all our paperwork. I cant wait for Oct. We have a June trip planned so the wait wont be so bad for us.

[Luv2Dream]

We'll be in a 1Br from 10/13 to 10/21 but, like allicat, we'll also be at BWV the first week in June. I can't wait to check it all out!

[sitchu2]

We are new BCV owners and planned a trip for Feb 1-8th on the magic and 8-16th in a 2br villa at BCV.

I too found myself too excited so I just booked a 2br villa for a 5day labor day weekend trip at BCV. I cannot wait!!!!!

[spiceycat]

the weather in December can vary greatly - it can be as low as the high 30's or as high as the middle 80's in 1 week - so be prepared bring your summer and winter clothes - but yes there is a chance you can go swimming in late December - I have been going the first two weeks of December since 1992 and except for one year (2000?) - I have been able to go swimming every year.

forget the important stuff - will be there in September - can't wait to try the new BCV!

Make sure you all post trip reports so those of us not going until next year can dream.

Can't wait!

[SCDizneyDawn]

We are going to be there Sept 15-20. I also cannot wait to stay in the brand new resort!! This will be our first trip in Sept, only 5 nights, cannot wait.

[michpoit]

We are going to be there from November 30 - December 8 (hopefully)! Tomorrow is the first day that I can make reservations for a 2 bedroom. I really wanted to add on at BCV, but since I live in NY and needed the points for this trip, I added on at HH instead. I can't wait!:Pinkbounc !:Pinkbounc!

[KNWVIKING]

We're booked for the first week in Nov,we want to try out the F&W fest. We leave for Vero on friday for 9 days and plan on driving over to WDW to check out BCV to see if we want to buy before the price increase. I'm not concerned with the loss of the incentive because we're only looking for a 60-70 pt add on.

[Terry S]

We will be there 9/30 - 10/12. Can't wait!

[Johnnie Fedora]

Really wanted to do July, but we decided on June at VWL :p . We will have to wait for BCV until Jan 2003.:D . We are so excited. :bounce:

[DisnutDave]

My DW and I are also new owners, and like a lot of other posters here, we had planned to bank all our points until 2003. But the magic was too much to resist, so we have booked a Studio at the BCV for Oct. 20-25th. Can't wait!! :bounce:

[DoeWDW]

We'll be going home for the first time to BCV at the end of Sept. I can hardly stand the excitement!! I will be anxiously waiting for any and all trip reports in early July!!!

I will post when we get back and let everyone know how wonderful it is. We will also be at our home BWV Dec 5-14. I NEED more points, maybe
DH will fall in love with BCV and I can convince him to do an add-on! Happy planning everyone!

[trustknoone]

[StevieD]

1 bedroom BCV - Oct. 23 through Oct. 28 - wish I could avoid the weekend but with DD in school, we are trying to minimize taking her out of class. Oh well, at least we'll get to go to MNSSHP - we did this 2 years ago and had a great time!

[HappyDVCer]

We will be there Dec 15-20. Can't wait to see the Christmas decorations at BCV. :) :)

[pwoodham]

We'll be there 9/20-9/27. 2br & a studio!! Can't wait!!

[Kacey]

Just changed our BWV reservations in a 1BR preferred to the BCV for Oct 9-13. My husband has a convention during that time and we were anxious to see the Beach Club!
