Absolutely. It's about as many Poly studios exists so take that many rooms to fill, move them away from Polynesian (location, ease to parks) to Fort Wilderness (more difficult to get to any park), require that many have a car or pay for a golf cart, and charge more points than a Poly studio... The cabins should fill slower than historical Poly studio booking patterns, and those are usually available at 7 months.
Ditto, no w/d with kids and a dog? Thats a dealbreaker for us.
Also with the bunk beds like doesn’t that become an issue once the kids are older? My kids aren’t going to want to sleep in a bunk bed forever as cool as it sounds to them at 5 years old. I don’t think either of us will want to be sleeping next to each other later on as well. Seems good for like the first 10 years of a young family maybe but after that less ideal. With the lack of w/d, non ideal location and the room set up I hope the point charts are priced appropriately but I won’t hold my breath.
Oh, I don't disagree, but there are camping cabin layouts that provide a little more privacy. The bunks aren't necessarily a deal-breaker for me, but my adult children might not want to share a room with their parents either, let alone stay in a bunk bed. If there had also been a single bed in the living room, this would work better for our family long term. As an example of cabins around here:
The same argument follows every resort addition.
I see what you're saying about super tiny room for bunks, but that room would still need walk around space between the bunk and wall, and the main bedroom would need walk around space, and having both is duplicative. When in the same room the bed walk around space is shared as bunk walk around space. To need two spaces would have shortened the living room/kitchen by about 3.5 feet. Alternatively, one side of the main bed could be pushed up against the wall like in the existing cabin, but that layout wasn't well liked.
Agree!
Yes, it's part of the main FW resort and there are shared costs for busses, boats to MK, Meadows pools and recreation areas, Movies Under the Stars, security, etc. I'm unsure how retail only locations (like settlement posts) and dining only locations are funded at any resort. It wouldn't surprise me to see a disproportionate bit put on DVC because we don't really know the true costs to complain (I think high Riviera skyline costs is like this, as it feels high but we don't know what other resorts and parks pay for it to know if Riviera is being used).
My wife and I remodeled our 750 sq. ft. cabin in the NC mountains almost exactly to this floor plan. Except we added a 2nd full bath for the master
kids on one end of the cabin, adults on the other.
Amen. I'm expecting something on low end one bedroom. They *should* be priced no higher than a Jambo value but I'm braced for some point inflation.
Yeah, they're hauled in some sizes are limited. They're about 500 square feet. The Jambo values are 629 and then CCV is 675 and everything else is at least 714.
