Disneyland wait list

[DISNEYFAN2828]

Anyone have any luck with the waitlist at DL? It will be our first time going and not sure if I want to waitlist for it or just book WDW.....

Any help is appreciated

I've always gotten into DVC @ the Californian at 7 months. We've gone in December, Spring (around Easter), before Halloween, and (I think) maybe February/March. We'd get a 1 bedroom.

We've had good luck at 7 months (to the day as soon as booking opens) for the VGC. I stalk the availability calendar to get a sense of trends and availability a few weeks before booking opens just so I know what to expect. One was 5 days in a studio (May) and 6 days in 1 br (Jan) - neither of those were holidays or high season times though. I would say go for it.
