anyone ever stay at BCV in Late AUG? How were the crowds? how crowded was the pool?

We stayed at the BC(not BCV), in 2003. That is when we fell in love with BC and decided to join DVC. We are also going back this August. I remember SAB being somewhat crowded, but certainly not uncomfortable. DH and I went through the "lazy river" many times without feeling crowded. We also enjoyed the hot tubs and usually had just a couple to a few others in with us. DS went on the slide numerous times, only complaing a couple of times, that the line was too long. The earlier in the day we went, of course, the easier it was to get a lounge chair. I remember when we went after the parks one day, we could not get a lounge, but we did get a round table to sit at while DS went in the pool. As I am sure you know SAB is a very popular pool and in August it is hot and humid so I imagine many people who stay at BC plan on using the pool occasionally if not every day.

Hope this helps somewhat. Good Luck and have fun!!

This august will be our second august stay at BCV. I LOVE IT. I think any of the pools will be crowded when its this hot, the pool is large and there are different areas to it. I find the most crowded area of the pool is usually the 3 foot sandy bottom portion (Rec Director Rael) usually has some type of team sport going on in this area. The slide is really fun, they have a lazy river, a whirl pool area, a quiter area (other side of bridge), a kiddie area and two hot tubs in the rocks. its lots of fun to check out all the areas and the sand feels great on your feet after a day in the parks.

A table in the shade works great for us at SAB, as we are usually only there to swim and perhaps a cocktail or two. I find it too hot to sit in the sun in a lounge chair.

After the sun goes down (or right before sunset) the quite pool is a great place to relax, its just what it says it is, quite. nice place to unwind for a while before you start all over or head upstairs to bed.

You get the most of both worlds at this resort.
