The girl you work with sound like my DD. She is 15, spastic CP, totally dependent, non-verbal, but understands everything and likes joking (she once used her wheelchair to try to push her sister in the water at WS, because sister was complaining of the he at).
Anyway, we are DVC members at OKW and a 2 bedroom works out very well for us. There are totally accessible homes, but even the regular first floor ones have bathrooms that are big enough to get a wheelchair in. The only problem with the regular ones is that there is a tub in the second bedroom and the shower in the master bedroom does have a lip, so you can't roll her in. Other than that, the rooms are spacious and not a problem for manouvering a wheelchair.
We have not stayed at BWV or WLV, but have taken a tour of the "example" room at Boardwalk. The rooms are a little smaller and moving around in a wheelchair would be possible, but nowhere near as easy as OKW.
Most of the buses have wheelchair lifts, so getting to the parks is not a problem. There is also an accessible pool at OKW. We were planning to look at it during our trip last September, but we ended up leaving early because a hurricane was set to hit.
