Good question. We're staying at the GCH hotel in August using points. I wonder if we get free valet parking as it won't be a DVC location yet at that point?
We stayed with a car there on points a couple years back and as I recall we did have to pay for the valet parking. We usually do not have a car when we stay there and take a town car from the airport.
I stayed there last year. Self parking is included, as well as internet on points stays. If you make a cash reservation, there is a daily "resort fee" that pays for these. Valet is extra in either case.
We just stayed in a park view on rented points, we self parked (across the street). Our view was awesome! But, no extra fees were involved. She even gave us a DVC discount at Whitewater snacks, which I didn't notice until I was back in my room. Also, I think some restaurants offer DVC discounts.
We had a great time, that resort is beautiful!
