Cash booking

[BobCosta]

Has anybody booked a non-home resort early in cash, just to be sure you have it? than at the 7th month mark; check your options at different resorts. using points?

You can't convert a cash reservation to a points reservation, and I couldn't tell by your post if you were thinking you could.

But if it's that critical to you that you stay in a particular place, whether it's cash or points, I think that's an okay plan. Then you could cancel if you get what you want through DVC, just make sure you do it within the cancellation windows (which for a room only is only 5-6 days out).

Why not book your home at 11 and then at 7 months see what you options are? At least then you are guaranteed a trip if you have a specific schedule.

It is always nicer to get the room you want with the view you want but even when we had to "settle" for one of the other dvc homes we have had nice trips.
