Hi all! I put in a request two weeks ago for a 2BR villa at Boardwalk, and made a backup reservation for Saratoga Springs for the same time frame through Disney directly. I just got word yesterday that my Boardwalk reservation has gone through, and am just waiting for confirmation on that side of things! Aside from being thrilled, I was wondering WHEN I should go through and cancel my reservation that I made through Disney. Are there any complications to having multiple reservations for the same date range? Or will I be able to add the Boardwalk reservation to MDE and then cancel my Saratoga reservation without issue?

Thanks in advance for any responses!
 
Definitely not a rush, I though cash Disney let you cancel something like 30 or 60 days out? Why wouldn't you just hold it until it's all done?

I often have overlapping reservations in the DVC system. This would cause chaos at check in, but it doesn't matter for the park reservations or dining.

New to booking through Disney like this, so just wanted to make sure there are no issues with overlapping reservations! Thanks for the reply!
