    Comparing Deluxe Resorts to DVC Property

    My wife and I are looking into joining the DVC. Aside from the basics, like kitchens, and living areas... How does staying at the DVC compare to the deluxe resorts? Having stayed at deluxe before but never on DVC, I just wonder if a little of the "magic" is missing. Thanks for you help...

    How often do you resort-hop?

    How often do you end up needing to split your stay with DVC points, when you book non-home resorts? We have resort-hopped before when we were paying cash, but now that we are considering buying DVC, I wanted to know if it was fairly common that you're forced to split your stays at the other...

    DVC members from TN (or nearby)

    Thanks for all of your advice and input. We really appreciate it. Growing up, we drove more often than not. But in the days where GameBoys didn't exist, the drive seemed longer. But with movies and games, I would suspect that the drive doesn't seem as long for kids. We're driving down to...
