The weather is much over today than yesterday! Still chilly, but beautiful, and better than PA!

How many magic bands is too many? I only have 2 from previous trips.

2 is not too many
That’s about all anyone knows
More like 20 would be closer to too many

I saw that the water parks were closed again so I figured it was chilly. Strange thing is typically they get colder temps 24 to 36 hours after we do here. But we are warm not cold this time. I guess yesterday was a little cool but really more normal

Just checked in to AKL CL and they have the new coffee maker too . I was finally able to get a picture of the one at BWI CL this morning, sorry that it’s an action shot and my awkward reflection, I had to multi-task with a line behind me. Also, the waffle bar is amazing, can’t beat a Mickey waffle with all the toppings.

At YC now. We think they’ve had pretty good offerings - certainly one or two outstanding CMs. We’ve not taken as much advantage as we should have, but that’ll change tonight for the sportsball viewing.

Please report in on AKL. We stayed at BWI CL in December and will check in at AKL CL next month. I loved BWI but am looking forward to AKL. DH is especially interested in the food selections. Enjoy your stay!

I will do my best! I’m having a mostly resort day tomorrow (gotta have my energy for MK AH tomorrow night) so I’ll be able to see the offerings at all services. Hopefully I’m up to eating tonight after over indulging at Epcot earlier.

That’s different than what GDT has but still looks great. Huge improvement

Lol, I think I’ll still vote for the GDT machine as being the best on property (I thought I had read above that’s what BWI got, but I guess not). Poly has that same one in your pic and it sometimes has a few gremlins (along with sometimes confused guests).

Thanks for sharing. Always interesting to see what the CLs do (or sometimes don’t do) for special holidays/events.

The waffle bar looks great. Enjoy!
is that a recent addition to AKL CL? I wish all CLs would offer them.

Hi all ! We are staying in a Deluxe Room for only one night before moving to our Copper Creek room. We arrive late-9pm to MCO and I expect to be at Wilderness Lodge around 10:30pm. We will miss the dessert offerings that first night, but do you think they will bring a couple of soda and maybe a chocolate milk or two to our room for us from the lounge? We will probably eat breakfast the next morning in55 the lounge and we may see what they have for desserts that evening since we will technically have club access until midnight. We have stayed club level several times (YC and AKL) but never for one night. We recently became DVC owners and we are staying at Copper Creek for 5 nights. Our travel party consists of 6 total. One 72 yr old, 2 50 year olds, 2 30 yr olds and one 3 yr old. We booked the Deluxe studio because it sleeps six and it is a bonus that it is club level.
This is my mother in law's first trip to WDW. I really want it to be special for her. It is also our grandson's first trip. (we take all our grandchildren to WDW when they turn four and then hopefully once a year after that). And so, we want it to be special for him also.
I am thinking about getting something from gifts and ammenities for my mother in law and grandson delivered to our Copper Creek villa. But, I am wondering if you think the club level will be worth it for the one night? I know that when i stay at AKL that I have withdrawals if i can't access the 6th floor. lol no really, 9 times out of 10 we have to stay CL at AKL if we stay there. I just love it. the cast members are usually so awesome. those who are there regularly remember us. I bring little gifts for them sometimes. I brought pop sockets with Disney designs this last time and they loved them.
anyway, any advice for late arrival to WL? We will probably be starving since we will be missing the dinner meal. Can we have something brought to our room that late? This is our first stay at Wilderness Lodge and Copper Creek. We wanted to stay here so that our luggage would be relatively close. I am happy to stay at Copper Creek but sad that the CL is only one night and we can't buy the extra fast passes.

thanks for your advice.

Hi, jemtx - so, we have only been here since Fri, and we arrived later than expected due to flight delay - we basically changed and ran out to mk ah. I saw (in a passing blur) what looked like thin, caesar salad-prepared romaine wedges, maybe? And also chicken nuggets and some soup that night. Lots of cheese/cracker stuff. Sat morning it was standard breakfast stuff - croissants, muffins, bagels, cold cuts and cheese, oatmeal, and crustless egg and cheese bites. We missed Sat afternoon because we wanted to get over to disney springs and try to get a walk-in table at Homecomin’ (we did, and omg, yum), and then we left before 6 am on Sunday to get to rope drop/bg release at dhs (we did, and omg, fabulous). You saw last night, and this morning the warm item is strawberry crepes. The only time the lounge has been crowded was last night, and between the menu you saw and then elaborate desserts (cupcakes, brownies, chiefs and 49’ers cake pops, every cookie in the world, and some stuff I’m forgetting), that made sense! The staff was AMAZING last night, refilling dishes constantly (nothing seemed empty before it was whisked away and replaced) and bringing in wine/beer after 7 (upon request, but they were expecting it, it seemed) for people watching the game. I’ve seen more heavy breakfast service at other cl’s, but I did miss Sunday, which seems to be the star breakfast at most cl’s. We’d stay here again.

Sounds like you had a busy and exciting trip. Thanks so much for the info. Hope you enjoy rest of your vacation.

I am wondering if you think the club level will be worth it for the one night?

The deluxe room at WL is the only room that holds 6 people, so there isn't any other option for you except to book two rooms.

any advice for late arrival to WL? We will probably be starving since we will be missing the dinner meal. Can we have something brought to our room that late?

Room service would be a really good option. I would call ahead of time to make sure that they are open that late. We ordered room service for our daughter, son-in-law and grandson when they arrived around 10:30pm and it worked out great. The only two restaurants open until midnight are Geyser Point, which is an outdoor restaurant and Roaring Foods, the counter service restaurant on the ground floor.
