    Issues making a reservation online?

    Tjabk Thanks it was my dues on VDH. I’ve had autopay for so long I didn’t even realize it was deducting those too. First time I’ve ever been late in over 15 years as a member! Jennifer

    Issues making a reservation online?

    I have t seen this posted, but the last few days I’ve gone online to check availability for dvc. Every time I do for the last several days I get the Rex message, “nothing to see here” when I click of booking. Is anyone else having this issue? I’ve never seen this issue go on for so long and I’ve...

    Looking For Local Nail Salon

    Many moons ago, when I got married at WDW, I thought the On site prices were ridiculous so I found a Walmart nearby with a nail salon. The nails were so well done I had to pry them off 2-3 months later when they had grown out. Lol. This was like 20+ years ago. I live in Florida now and there...

    Tron previews for DVC?

    We were only able to ride once. Our time slot was 9:30-10:30, we were able to get our wristband at around 900 and entered the queue line a few mins before 9:30. Jennifer

    Any local FL DVC owners?

    We are about 25 mins from WDW but bought in 2007 when we lived in Missouri. I’ve kept all my points and actually added on a little. We use our points for staycations and marathon weekend mostly. We also went to Aulani last year too. There is something special about going to Disney and staying on...

    0 for 5 on December room requests--bad luck, bad requests, arrival times, or something else?

    Sometimes I have luck with reservation requests , most times not. As a PP mentioned DVC runs at or near 100% all the time, so someone has to end up with less desirable rooms. I seem to always get them for marathon weekend… (I’ve stayed at BLT and have requested an outside ring but always get...

    Who remembers what year online booking began?

    We joined in 2007 and if I’m not mistaken it was about that time they switched from 7/11 months from the end of your reservation/day at a time to 7/11 months from the beginning. I only recall that because people would call in day at a time to get hard reservations, instead of waiting for the end...

    If you bought a contract less than 35 points, why?

    We actually bought in as a 25 point contract (now we are at 266 points), it was resale in 2007, at OKW $87 a point. We went that way to pay cash and not take out a loan. We added on another 25 points a year later direct but back then buying direct waived closing costs. I miss the $87 ppp and no...

    Boulder Ridge Refurb Has Begun!

    I received a phone call (they left a voicemail) and it was automatically changed on my membership dashboard. I think the hall way they are working on now is mostly 2 bedrooms so was really surprised. Jennifer

    Boulder Ridge Refurb Has Begun!

    Im booked in a 2 bedroom at Boulder Ridge from Jan 4-9 and was just moved to Copper Creek. I was mildly disappointed and then realized no construction noise. So I’m happy.

    Boulder Ridge Refurb Has Begun!

    I absolutely never complained about the “gaudy” colors, I loved them! So much so that those came colors are all over my own home. The dark green and burgundy were perfect. I’ve never stayed at Old Faithful but I have stayed at historic National Park lodges and they will keep the rustic log cabin...

    Boulder Ridge Refurb Has Begun!

    It never looked trapped in 1995. I’m really hating all this “make everything white and light” that’s not the theme of Wilderness Lodge. I like the dark colors that it originally had. Now it just looks like a Courtyard by Marriott.

    Boulder Ridge Refurb Has Begun!

    There was a guy today at the member meeting who went off on the Boardwalk renovation. I’m not a huge BWV fan but I agreed 100% with his “everything is beginning to all look the same”. From the looks of Boulder Ridge there are very few theming elements that really match with the original theme...

    Best cascade cabin to request?

    That's perfect! I might actually put in a request for that side as I love the electric water pageant. Thanks!

    Best cascade cabin to request?

    We are staying two nights in a cascade cabin for our anniversary at the end of January. I was looking at requesting 8001-8012, since that side seems more “woodsy”. Is there any reason I should not request it, or anything more specific I should request? Also, anyone know why there appears to be...

    Boulder Ridge Refurb Has Begun!

    I would be requesting a partial refund back on points if the same thing happens to me, we are booked at Boulder Ridge in a month in a 2 bedroom as well. I booked at 11 months and actually bought extra points just so I would have enough, no way would I accept SSR or Riviera!

    Have you ever had a room upgrade?

    I’ve been upgraded once over dozens of DVC stays over 15 years. That was a Halloween 2020 right after the parks re-opened. I was upgraded from a studio to a 1 bedroom at BLT. It was a great upgrade but I never expect it to happen again. Jennifer
