Getting VWL or BCV at 7 months in late April

[helenk]

I was thinking of going to the Flower and Garden Festival in late April or early May of next year.
I'd like to try as many of the DVC resorts as possible and I know that the VWL and BC are the smaller resorts.
Are either one of these resorts really popular in the late spring?

I had VWL for late May, and I think that was less than 7 months...
(but then at the last minute changed plans to late April. Of course, last minute meant only SSR or OKW, but at 7 months you have a decent shot. Plus there will be BLT taking up a few of the MK lovers from VWL)

I had no problem at the 7 month mark getting BCV for the first weekend of May this year.

Two years ago we got a BCV studio (which is all we wanted) at less than 5 months out for the first week in May. It's doable, but obviously the sooner the better.

We just got back a month ago from a VWL studio trip...We started for 5 nights on Easter Sunday which is prime time...I'm sure we booked at 7 months, and we had to waitlist for 1 night, but it came thru quickly...So yeah, with Easter next year very early in April, you should have a good shot! Good luck!

Thank you for your replies, I can relax a bit now. Once I get back from my trip in June I am going to sit down and figure out which resort I would prefer, and get an idea of what dates I want so that at 7 months I call first thing.

I've gotten BWV 2x in May (1st week & Memorial day week) and BCV last April break with waitlisting.
