Disney’s Eagle Pines Vacation Club

(August 25, 2006, Lake Buena Vista, FL) Walt Disney World executives today announced a new concept in vacation ownership, a concept that Disney is calling the “Back to Nature Vacation”


Disney Executive J Lewis stated that “We have noticed a large number of our guests are interested in purchasing an ownership interest in our existing Vacation Clubs have been unable to afford the high costs so we have decided to offer them a more budget friendly alternative”


Disney’s Back to Nature Vacation will use a point system similar to the exisiting Disney Vacation Club, but the points will sell for $50 a point as opposed to the $95 cost of the Vaction Club

Back to Nature guests will receive some unique benefits never before offered at Disney. Each guest will be given a “wildlife alert warning device” The device which Disney executives compared to a lifeguard warning system will allow the guests to call for assistance from other guests in the event wildlife such as an alligator enters their living quarters. Each accommodation also comes equipped with an automated bug zapper. Membership in the Back to Nature club also comes with a certificate for free Malaria shots. The gift shop will buy back golf balls that guests may collect out of the local swimming hole.

Back to Nature accommodations will consist of a deluxe platform tent. Disney executives proudly pointed out how the walls and doors of the tents can be raised and lowered using a unique rolling mechanism to allow the cool night breezes to flow into the accommodations.

Disney indicated that a purchasing a week at a Back to Nature Resort will cost a guest approximately $5000 with annual dues of approximately $200.

Disney executives clearly stated that the Back to Nature resort system was separate from their existing Disney Vacation Club. “If a guest wants to stay in a nice resort, then they won’t be able to do this using the Back to Nature plan” stated one executive who asked not to be identified. The executive also said “We considered putting this on the monorail line, then we knew we could charge about three times as much but decided that this property fit the overall plan better”
 

Great!!!

Maybe this will take some of the pressures off the smaller DVC's!! :rotfl:
 
At least no one will be complaining how far it is to the elevator!

My favorite part!!! :lmao:
 
Will they have standard and preferred locations based on distance to the porta-poties?
 
Does anyone know if bar-b-que grills will be available or will I have to fry my squirrel on the bug zapper? :)
 
I'm guessing preferred will indeed be the closest to the potties and the standard view will be closest to the gators. Do you think the pools will be heated in the winter?

CRO: "Any Requests?"

ME: "I prefer to have Non-Smoking (translation: Away From Camper Exhaust) and close to the communal potty/shower area"

I think closest to the gators, would be considered preferred because it's like Savannah view at AKL :rotfl:
 
Pools??? You mean the creekside swimmin'/clothes washin'/whirlpool tub hole? (Of course, they will furnish washboards!)

Heated pools...it just depends on how many can't get PPV (Preferred Potty View). :teeth:

After a scrumptious meal of bug zapped squirrel and beans, the heated pool becomes a man-made jacuzzi! :lmao:

The amenities are sounding better all the time!
