I am sooo confused! I was all set to put a $200 deposit down on a condo (www.jackscondo.com) the guy only wants $475 for the full two weeks. Its a 20 minute drive (the back way in, not I-Drive or I-4) to the parks. We have a full two weeks to spend, well 13 days since out flight in gets in around 2pm. Then I get a pop up for skyauction.com I see some gorgeous resorts! And with the $195 per week they want (plus the bid price) I can be spending $75-$100 more. I dont know what to do. The deposit is refundable within 60 days of travel (we are going 10/3 or 10/4, flexible on the dates). Am I going to enjoy one of these resorts more?? I have 3 kids 6, 4, 2 and one on the way (will be 3 months). We will most likely do 5 days at the parks, well probably 4 and a day at SW since we didnt get to do that last year when we went. Are any of these places on Skyauction close enough to the real Disney action? There will be 7 of us, DH and I and our 4 kids and my dad... Thanks, Steph

They have quite a few reorts on Sky Auction that are close to Disney. Go to sky auction look at a resort that interest you and pull up the resorts site. They usually have all the info you need on there. The 2 closest resorts I stayed at are Silver Lake and Cypress Pointe. My children are same ages as your(but there are none on the way) and they loved Orange Lake Country Club. It is a big resort with a lot to do. Look up the site. That might interest you. I think it is 5 miles from Disney. Your cost will probably be the same are a little more for Sky. It depends on your bid. There are no deposits but you are charged for it within 2 or 3 days after your deal is complete. I hope this info helps.

I forgot to mention your money is not refundable.

I think the non refundable scares me as I will have a 2 1/2-3 month old so you never know... Steph
