Not sure how much stock we can put into this, but the artist's rendering of Gasparilla's looks amazing! I forgot to mention this yesterday...

We really want to stay at GF for a potential August 2013 trip, but we haven't booked yet and I just looked and it seems like all GV rooms at GF are sold out for August 7-12, 2013 (which, in my opinion, is ridiculous). I just don't understand how all GV rooms could be booked up overnight. No conference is that large!
I mean last year we were able to book a GV room a month before 4th of July with our FL Resident rate. How can this be?
Hmm, it seems to me that the only rooms that really overlook the construction are in RPC? Those in Big Pine Key are to the East and would directly face the lagoon with a view of the villas to the right. If I were offered two great rooms overlooking the villas, I think I'd ask which building?
Good luck with Sandy all of those on the East coast.
Hmm, good point, for an upgrade to RPC I might suddenly develop a fascination with ongoing villa construction.

Perhaps they are planning some room renovations? They usually close down an entire building at a time, which could lead to a substantial decrease in the number of garden view rooms available.
That's good to know about booking a month out last 4th of July. We booked now but really are hoping for a big $ discount after the winter.
Weather today was a little cooler but still very doable! Too hot for hoodie and too cold for shorts and t-shirt.
Sitting here on balcony I can see inside the pool. The rebar is anchored in the bottom. Looks like they are ready to poor concrete any day.
Lots of east coasters bailing out today or early in the AM! Good luck!

DH said we can book a 2012 GF Christmas trip! (16th-21st), if I book Theme Park View, which building should I request? I will be requesting a 2Q 1day bed room for the 4 of us.
I love the building to the left of Gasparilla's Grill (when you're looking across the marina at Cinderella Castle). Not sure what that's called, anyone? Or is there another better choice?

As Cali-D posted, it is Sago Cay. Here is a link to photos posted by Misti in an old FAQ: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2158108&highlight=sago+cay+pictures&page=39 Beautiful shots of the view of the MK from the end rooms of Sago, and the surrounding area.
Sandy is slowly approaching our area and it's just a waiting game. So glad we still have power so I can come here to the DIS and get away from it even for a few minutes.
We are contemplating whether to upgrade to the SL or stay in a regular GV room. It's between purchasing another piece of art from the Art of Disney or upgrading to the SL. DH says SL and me and our DS16 say art piece (which will last us a lot longer than the SL). I think we know who is going to win this one.
MomtoGKC, Big Pine Key is closest to the lobby. Sago Cay is closest to the bus stop. Sago Cay and Sugar Loaf are near Gasparilla's but Sugar Loaf is club level. Happy planning!
Forgive me if this is someplace else, but I don't have time to search the 100+ pages...
Can you see Wishes from the RPC...and can you see Wishes from a CLMK view (RPC)?
What about Wishes from a nonCL MK view?
Thx
