Best resort holiday decorations?

[Court475]

Thought on arrival day (11/23) we could check out a few resorts. Definitely want to see the gingerbread house at GF. Any other suggestions?

Wilderness Lodge, Animal Kingdom Lodge, Beach Club, Boardwalk and Yacht Club are also worth a peek.

Wilderness Lodge is spectacular. Be sure to also visit the VWL lobby while there.

All of the Deluxe resorts have fairly impressive holiday decorations. They tend to be either an "edible" showpiece or an impressive tree.

GF - giant gingerbread house and tree
CR - gingerbread show piece
Beach Club - chocolate and gingerbread showpiece
Boardwalk - chocolate and gingerbread showpiece
Yacht Club - large model train set-up
WL - giant tree and wreathes (this is one of my favorites because it works so well with the overall look of the resort)
AK - giant tree and wreathes
Poly - some decorations and a little tree

I would make an effort to see as many of the showpieces as possible, especially the ones at the Epcot resorts. They big, but the level of detail is impressive.

We had amazing family pictures taken at AK lodge by a PP photographer in front of the gorgeous tree

... I think WL and VWL are the best followed by GF. BWI,BC and YC are also very festive.

Will be staying at the WL, and can't wait to see the Christmas decorations!
I agree that WL is most impressive. Closely followed by GF, CR, BWV (amazing garland, just so beautiful!) and then Beach and Yacht club. Have to admit that I don't remember seeing AKL.
Touring the resorts during the holidays is so much fun, check to see if the CS restaurants have any special desserts too.

Thanks everyone!

Does anyone know approximately when the decorations go up in the various resorts? We'll be there until November 20.

AKL is pretty nice. (very similar to WL, just exotic instead of northwestern-y.)

more resort christmas pics are here if you want to see for yourself:

everything is up by thanksgiving. before that, it is hit or miss but you might want to swing by the GF or WL or boardwalk the last few days of your trip to see if the big trees and/or gingerbread creations are up.
