I think that a lot of the folks who LOVE the boardwalk hang out on the DVC board. I stayed there n January, split our trip between the ASSP for 2 nights and 3 nights at the BWI. Absolutley loved it! So much so that I bought into the DVC at BCV. Decided not to do a resale for Boardwalk. But absolutley love the area. Would stay there again in a heartbeaT!
Have a great time there!
