    BWV - Is it worth buying now?

    For my wife and I it has been several years since we have stayed on property. Although we have stayed in Celebration just simply not the same feeling as being on property. We have several times dabbled in DVC. Now we are part of DVC through resale recently. Just booked our first trip and...

    If you could retire early...

    I just turned 50 in May and my wife is 54. Have invested and plan on going at 62. We lived in Ohio. Owned a 4 bedroom home in Davenport for 4 years. We sold it when the company I worked for closed our plant where I worked. Now I'm in Indiana working for the same company. Investments are...

    Finally!!!! - We are in the process of buying DVC - BWV!!! - What a journey!

    My wife and I are in the exact same spot. 2042 takes us into our 70's. The plan is at that point we are retired for several years and will be living the condo life very close to Disney. Will use the points for the kids and grandkids to visit. My wife and I will vacation in between with one...

    DVC as your children become adults

    Hello everyone. So I guess my wife are somewhat insiders as we have stayed on and off property and just was approved for BWV. I will say that not all of my kids love Disney. We have five. Three boys and two girls. Our daughters would kill to go to Disney. Our son's. Not so much. We took...

    Finally!!!! - We are in the process of buying DVC - BWV!!! - What a journey!

    Good afternoon everyone! We were approved! ROFR went through on 4/22/2022. Now we are waiting on the title company and all that goes along with it to complete this process. I will say waiting for this portion to go through was a bit of a emotional roller coaster. We were up and down and...

    Finally!!!! - We are in the process of buying DVC - BWV!!! - What a journey!

    My wife and I spent our honeymoon in Disney many years ago. We are still in love and raised 5 children. Have 5 grandchildren. Not being the reactionary type. During our honeymoon we walked through the numbers to join DVC and it didn't make sense to us like most. For many many years when...

    Christmas Wishes Fireworks MK

    Well I'm going to give them a buzz on the phone. Looking further into the WDW website it looks like I'll have to pay in addition to the theme park tickets as the 21st is listed as the last day on the schedule for the party and the park closes at 7. Party starts at 7. That stinks for our...

    Would you go alone????

    I think this is a great idea...never feel guilty about taking time for you. Now I'll admit I'd feel better if my wife went with a freind. However if she wanted to go it alone...I'd let her. However I would make sure she stayed deluxe club as I feel that it's more secure...

    Thanks to Unknown benefactor

    I'm going to jump in here and say that what this unknown person has done is a very RARE thing these days. Others can learn from this. Too many don't understand the word selfless and embrace selfish. This is incredibly honorable! Goodthings will sure come to said person!

    Early check-in?

    Don't know if it'll do you any good they'll tell you 3 p.m. is all they can do unless your room is ready. We've been lucky some years and had our rooms provided to us imediately and other years we've waited past the 3 p.m. or 4 p.m. time to receive our room. We found that the CM can give you...

    BWI slide closure

    I thought the same when I read that...Although our favorite pool is the clown pool at BWI. I wish we were staying during this time to take advantage of Stormalong... Have a great trip!

    We nixed Boardwalk Inn...

    We love the BWI. We feel that many have a phobia of clowns and understand your decision not to stay at BWI. My perspective on the entire feel of the Disney Boardwalk is as any boardwalk. After studying boardwalks at Coney Island, Ocean City NJ and Maryland. During the day they are for...

    Boardwalk or Animal Kingdom Lodge

    Although we find AKL interesting. Our hearts belong to BWI. Stayed there this August for the third time. The second year in a row on club level. Your right you can't beat the location, or the access to the restraunts. Flying Fish is fab. I'd save the 100 and move to the BWI. Goodluck...

    December 2011 - Christmas with Mickey!! Who's Coming Along and Planning Help Thread!!

    Originally going August 2011 and have booked an ASMU-Suite but since a scheduling conflict with two of our daughters we are changing our plans to December 2011. Of course August 2011 would have been ideal due to free dinning but and the fact that it's half the price. We're now planning -...
