Pooh's Pal · 10-13-2004, 10:47 PM

Hi All...getting very exicited about my stay at WL in 55 days!!! YIKES! And we are staying in a Deluxe/Jr.Suite (thanks to WDW CRO mess up!!!)
I was checking out your new WL home/thread and wanted to access the WL Map on page 1, but I wasn't allowed access to it? I was trying to figure out where the end of the wings are, that you describe the suites are on.
Could you chec it out for me Majestic? Wondering if it's me, my computer or if it's just not working correctly?
Thanks a million!
Debbi

excited for you; just remember to come back and post all about your vaca!

(Besides, if I DO say so, we are the most informative, friendliest bunch on the 'DIS'....but that's JMHO!)

Debbi,

Have a great trip! And please report back about your room. We're very interested in staying in a Deluxe on trip!

Thanks!

[B]So there were definately a combination of factors that affected the overall outcome of your trip. I feel bad that you had these experiences as vacation time should be smooth and painless.

Thank you, Fred! I knew I was going to get warm feedback from everyone. I just did not like the fact that the rest of family member did not have a good impression about Disney anymore...
One employee was talking to my FIL that Disney was going down for over all customer service. To me, I still see many employees in WDW are still trying to make our "Wish Come True"! At store at WL, I was very late for meeting with my family and a cashier immediately senced that I was in hurry.... She told the person in front of me if she could ring me 1st since I was in a hurry!!!!
Because of her, I made it to MGM bus w/my family!!!! Many things we experienced were wonderful! I could not thank MGR@WL that she got me brand new rice cooker! It's not just reguler rice cooker. They went their beyound to get my kind of rice cooker (from local Asian market!!! I was very impressed!)
Daily Towle art was our #1 excitement. We showed off each room's Towle Art everyday. House Keeping did very great job! I would defnately want to go back to WL if my budget allow for my future trip! (We were able to get an employee discount this time....) Anyway, thank you for all of your advise. You guys rock!

jcemom · 10-14-2004, 12:06 PM

Well, I jumped in and made my reservations with Dreams Unlimited last night!

Now if only a great AP discount would come out...

Thanks to all of you here for convincing me that WL is where I want to stay (it really didn't take much, lol).

Hi Debbi, not Majestic but I believe the link to the map is in my post...and the web site that the map was originaly posted on is down. I will hunt and try and find a new map so I can replace the information...the web site seems to be down all the time. Most of the Jr. Suites are located at the end of each wing North and South side of the Lodge.

The following photo is of the Jr. Suites on the North side of the Lodge from the outside, near the boat dock.

PS Try this link to a map of Wilderness Lodge:

I just read about the room mix-up on your stay, I'm so sorry they weren't able to assist you with your request, that's why we always say over and over that any room request is only that, a request and is never guaranteed.

Sounds like you took the Lemons and made Lemonade, I'm glad you still were able to enjoy your stay at the lodge.

Did they get your PS correct over at Chef Mickey's?

That's great about the children's activities. We coming down for 1 night only (*sigh) and will probably arrive in the early afternoon. I just knew there would be fun things for my 2 boys (ages 3 & 5). I'm so excited...and this thread is making me even more so.

Hi Everyone!

What a beautiful new home you have here!

Concierge question: How far in advance does WL concierge contact you? We stayed there before and I can't remember if it's 90 days, or 120 days, or . . .

Can anyone help?

You may want to call or email them. They haven't been very good about returning emails and calls lately. I have found that if you email, then call to check up that they will get back to you. Someone in the IPO told my that they are very behind.

Thanks for the link to the map! I appreciate it! Looks like from the map and from your pictures.....all of the Junior suites face the lake, am I correct? Our reservation states "Woods View"...is there such a thing with Jr.Suites? Thanks again for all of your incredible information!

hockey mom · 10-16-2004, 06:58 AM

I am hooked.

We just returned from 3 nights at WLV and all I can say is WOW

I love this place and now I understand the obsession. I have never felt so relaxed at a resort before and the view is something I could not get enough of. We are planning a return trip next Christmas and plan on spending all are time at the Lodge.

cathy59 · 10-16-2004, 09:06 AM

Hockey Mom, I am SO glad to hear that you had a relaxing time! That is exactly what I am hoping for on our next trip. We always leave WDW so exhausted, and I want to see if it is possible to have a trip to Disney that includes some relaxation!

Can't wait for our first trip to the Lodge!
