Ft. Wilderness Cabins at 7 month window in October (for Halloween)?

[JulieWent]

Are Ft. Wilderness cabins usually available at the seven month mark? We are BWV owners, but my brother and his wife do a huge Halloween display staying in their RV every year. We'd like to be able to be there for it, so I'm making reservations at the 11 month mark for BW but would like to change to the cabins when our 7 month comes up. I'm wondering if that will be possible. (We also thought we might change to Wilderness Lodge, but we're still thinking about it.)

At 7 months we were booked at a variety of resorts for Oct 2025. Cabins had some availability when I was looking at 7 months and lots of members were walking. I typically book H/A if available so my availability may be different. I think there was 5 or 6 night availability if I remember and people like me have several desirable options and if you can't get A, you go to B and then C. Rinse and repeat until you get what you want. I find middle of the night the best time so insomniac's unite! After that, I check around 7 am and have a few screens up and nail it at 8 am. If I don't get it I go to the next screen, rinse and repeat. I did have 10 nights at BWV 2025 which I cancelled and rebooked for 9 nights in May 2026. There was never more than 5 or so nights available so it was persistence and stalking that got it.

Don't give up on it. Best of luck!
