Chances of getting BCV at 7-month mark mid-Nov (after Food & Wine)

[peacefrogdog]

For our next trip, we'd love to try BCV.

I know that it is extremely difficult to get BCV at the 7-month mark in the fall due to the Food & Wine festival. How will things be right after the F&W festival (which I understand ends on Nov 8, 2009). Do you think there will be a lot of people still staying at BCV who checked in before F&W ended, thus making it hard to get at the 7-month mark?

I should qualify that I would be looking for a 2-BR villa.

I have had no problems getting into the BCV at the 7 month mark. One time in mid October during F&W and the other was the first week of December. Both very busy DVC times.

Were you booking a 2-BR?

I've heard that studios and 2-BR would be in more demand than a 1-BR.

We were there last week, and one of the rooms we had was a studio that was originally booked for BWV, but DSis wanted to be at BCV with us. I was able to move her right at the 7 month mark. As far as availability goes, we were able to get into our Dedicated 2 Q 2 bedroom BCV villa at 8AM on Sunday, last week. The resort did not seem to be at full capacity.
