Hi Bobbi. We did it! We added on at CC. Can't wait to stay there especially in the cabins. I have some questions for you regarding the cabins, please post a review when you get back and..... 1) I'm wondering about the walk between the furthest cabin and the main building. If it is a hike (like I've read), does the resort offer anything for that? do people rent/bring bikes and use them? Segways? 2) I read that the cabins are close together but there is a good amount of landscaping between them? 3) any noise issues with the sanitary system (like the Poly Bungalows)? 4) are the furthest east cabins (closest to Fort Wilderness) quiet and reclusive.
Thanks and yes. Please add us to the 1st pageand CONGRATS to you!!!!
Let me know if you’d like to be added to Page 1!

We bought last month and have a December use yearAwesome!! Thank you for the kind words!! What month did you buy and what’s your use year? It’s great to have you on our board and as a new neighbor!!!!!!!!!
We were there in July, and we walked the entire pathway from the farthest out cabins (8001 on the north side, 8026 on the south). There is abundant landscaping along the entire way, and I can tell you that the farthest out cabin is 8026--that is located on the side nearest FW, btw. Yes, those cabins are what I would call reclusive, roughly 8020 through 8026. From 8026, the hike back to the main Lodge is easily 300 yards or more. 8001 on the other side isn't quite so far, but it's still quite a haul. To my knowledge, there are currently no golf carts or Segways available. You can rent bikes at WL, however, so that might be an option. The cabins actually have some space between them, but the landscaping and vegetation is still in its early stages of growth, so you can definitely see your neighbors. I'm unsure of the sanitation system noise, but I would guess that boat horns could be an issue for some, especially if you get one of the cabins on the north side (closest to MK) since those along the waterway between WL and MK. I will say that although the walk from the farthest out cabins on either side is lengthy, given the relativity to how much one walks at Disney anyway, that it wouldn't be an issue for us.
Unsure on how many rooms are left to the main Lodge, but you can get a good count on the DVC rooms by checking the diagrams on page one supplied by grandcalifornian.
. Reducing the number of Main Hotel Rooms via DVC Conversion was one of the main drivers of the CCV project.
Great info, thanks!
I should add that if you're on the north side in a cabin, there is a walkway off the main path to the north wing of the main Lodge right around cabin 8006--and a BBQ grill area sits there, as well. You'd still have to work your way through that wing to get to the lobby, but at least it would be air-conditioned. I don't know if a similar entrance exists on the south end, but I assume it does somewhere near the famous dumpster view area of the old VWL building. In addition to the path to the cabins, there is a parallel walkway next to the VWL wing (it's huge and is how service vehicles get to Geyser Point and the pump house for the new pool). There are a couple of places to cross over to it from the cabin path, but again, I'm not sure there is an entrance to the VWL building other than the one next to Sturdy Branches. It's all very beautiful, but it will require a lengthy walk unless you're in one of the closer cabins.
thank you!

Agree, no brush fires. Where is the closest DSA for the cabins?Now that the cabins are in.... and are a fair distance from any WL authorized smoking location (DSL)?
What would everyone who smokes, or does not, like to see happen in this area? I personally believe that there is a safety issue. Would hate to see a brush fire at the Cabin edges
Hello everyone! I bought into CCV back when it first went on sale I think in March? I have a June use year and my first trip there will be May 6-12, 2018.
