I know that your stay will be as good as the first Christmas I spent there in 1994. It was when the lodge had its first Christmas. On Christmas eve they had a bar set up in the lobby serving drinks, a brass band and Victorian carollers, Santa and a cast of Disney characters for entertainment. I was there as a family with my DW, DS, and DD. It was the best Christmas vacation that we have ever had. Have a great time!!

Staying at VWL. As you can see below we've stayed at several DVC resorts but haven't stayed at VWL yet. Can't believe I actually got in for Christmas!

There is no place I'd rather celebrate Christmas...I'm going to Disneyland in 4 days and the new Grand Californian Villas...we will be putting a Christmas tree in our room and everything. ;)

We will be there too! 12/20-12/26, at AKV- Kidani. We just became DVC members in August so I was happily surprised to be able to reserve a Christmas visit- then to top it off I was able to get some ADR's that I have been trying to get for years (CRT)...we are all so excited and can't wait for the weekend to be enjoying the parks and relaxing in warmer weather! We are bringing a small Christmas tree and decorations and going to have a traditional family Christmas with the mouse :santa:

I love Christmas at Disney. DD, not so much. She would rather be home Christmas day so she can be with friends and show off their presents. Last time we were there was in ’07 and she made me buy this huge tree for the room. What a pain it was driving it up there. But it was worth it.

We will be there on the 20th until Christmas day, staying at the WL Concierge Club. We ran out of points due to all of the WDW trips we have booked this fall/winter :lmao: and saw WDW was having a 40% off sale for concierge level rooms. So we decided to splurge and pay cash. We wanted to stay at Animal Kingdom Lodge's concierge lounge since we were there for Christmas 2 years ago but sadly, it wasn't available. But Wilderness Lodge/Villas is our second favorite resort so we're looking forward to it! :santa:
