    11/25/07 4 Night Wonder - anyone else?

    Hi! I have been watching the boards since we booked. We are on the 4night Wonder on 11/25. We are bringing the kids (7 and 2) plus friends (family of 5). We are very excited to share the DCL with friends. We continue to say what a wonderful experience we had on it in 2004. We are...

    What should we charge our friends?

    We are taking 3 other families on our points in October to WLV and we really don't expect anything. What is a bit frustrating is one couple, who has no idea what they are saving, is complaining they have to pay for an extra ticket to the not-so-scary party at MK. I bite my tongue every time it...

    Marina Pass?

    I remember seeing something about buying a weeklong pass for boat rentals at the VWL marina. Is this plan still available, and at what cost? We're heading there in early Oct. and would like to do this. Thanks-

    VWL availability

    I'm going to VWL on the 5th thru 13th and secured what they said were the last 4 studios for that week and we booked over 4 months ago. Might be tough even on a waitlist.

    Disney Dining Experience (DDE)

    Thank you very much for the information. We have 8 adults and 8 kids in our party. I'm sure we'll have more than one table, so I'll probably put the adults at one table and the kids next to us. Does anyone know if this works at Whispering Canyon? Thanks again, this site is the best!!

    Disney Dining Experience (DDE)

    I was reading about the annual passes and noticed a reference to the Disney Dining Experience (DDE). Can someone tell me what it is, how it works, and where to purchase it? We are traveling in Oct 05 to WL with three families and thought this would be a benefit for us. Thanks.

    golf anyone anywhere?

    Celebration Golf Club is my recommendation. Not a far drive at all, and they have a super DVC discount any time of day unlike the resort courses where you only get the discount after 10 am. Course is in great shape and has many tees for all levels of players.

    HH Shrimp Boil?

    We went to the shrimp boil 2 yrs. ago and thought it was well worth it- If I remember correctly, the boil was held in a good size picnic area and food was bar-b-que style-all u can eat- shrimp, corn on the cob, sausage, beans etc... drinks provided included beer, wine or pop and desserts...

    BWV Studio Availibility

    Does anyone know how many BWV standard view studios are available at a given time? I'm planning on taking a group of our friends in October and am looking to use our points to book 5 std. studios if available. I'm hoping there will be 5 available as we have 5 family's going and I only have...

    Hilton Head and Golf

    Golf in Hilton Head is great- I'm pretty sure the closest course is Palmetto Dunes. Prob. a couple mile walk- I wouldn't advise that. There are literally a dozen courses within a half- hour of the Disney property. I was there last year and prices are all over the map. Most expensive is...

    ATA Leaving Midway?

    ATA is denying that they will pull out of Midway, although they are restructuring- They are the best choice for us too- I can't believe that route is not profitable for them, every one I've been on has been packed- hate to say this, but there's always Southwest-

    Just Back from Member Homecoming!

    I agree Homecoming was strong. We had a great time. If people are looking to complain, I would have only a few minor things: 1. That Deevee Cee woman was incredibly annoying. 2. There weren't enough people working the counters at the eating areas in MK. By the time you ate you only...

    Cancelling reservation question

    I'm hoping someone can help me before I talk with member services. I booked 2 studios at BCV Sept 21-27. One for my family and one for my parents. I had to borrow points for my parents reservation. In the last week my father found out he needs surgery and now my parents won't be able to go...

    Just Back From HH

    One thing my son loved at HH was a morning of butterfly house building- the staff provided the houses and all the kids would paint and decorate the houses. The campfire was also tailored to kids. Beach house about 1.5 mi. from resort. Our room was next to the main lodge. Building #12.

    Pillows...blankets....etc.

    Most of the accomodations we've stayed in (Studio, 1 BR, 2 BR), have all had additional pillows and blankets in the closets along with ironing boards and vacuums. Since most units have a couch bed, I think they have them there for that use. Our experience has been at least 2 pillows and 2...

    Just Back From HH

    Spent week of 5-14 thru 5-24 in non-smoking studio room #1223 at Hilton Head. We loved it! We were nervous to bring our 3 yr. old there knowing charachters weren't there, but we were very impressed with all the activities they have to keep kids busy. The staff goes out of their way to make...

    vacation magic

    I may be a little late on this, but did you guys see an p. 4 of VM that American Express is discontinuing the White Glove program? That's a shame. I know as DVC'ers we still get breaks on many things, but White Glove was a nice program for everyone who came to Disney. I hope something else...
