How many of you are hoping to purchase Lakeshore?

[Girlstar30]

I already wrote a letter to William Diercksen and Stephanie Young, maybe I should add this suggestion of washing points in there too, not that they care, but doesnt hurt

Disney-- if you are watching... yes, the people want this!

Until people see the price. Then they wouldn't want it

 

[lovin'fl]

It never did. People have reported that they were able to pay for it as a cash guest when they arrived for stay in the hotel side.

It did. It was a pay to play instead of book on points. So we used points for CCV and paid $50/ night or $75 or something, can't remember, to do club level. It was in building outside called Reunion something, next to Geyser Point. We thought it was nice but not too many people did it so they axed it.

It would take better transportation options. It's basically a straight shot north of the skyliner at international gateway.

Until they start running the skyliner through weather I just can't see it with how long of a run that would be without an exit station.

Yeah, someone reminded me about Reunion Station which I had forgotten about!!

I don’t see it connecting to Epcot- but a Skyliner from TTC/contemporary to wilderness Lodge to Lakeside Lodge, would massively increase the value of both resorts.

 

[muppets3d]

I'm not sure I'll buy there, but I might. I'm open to it. But I'm also not setting money aside and waiting with bated breath.

I’m betting I can get a better return on my money elsewhere. Never been a big fan of timeshares no matter where they are.

Why are you posting on a dvc board then ?

 

[Disneydad14]

I wouldn’t buy a direct contract for the new resorts because they have the resale restrictions. That kills the liquidity and value of what you’re buying. I think Disney is very short sighted here. Having a liquid resale market made DVC different than other timeshares. They are killing that with the resale restrictions which I believe will discourage people from buying their product.

This is exactly how I feel. Lakeshore lodge in concept sounds great to me but I can’t commit to 50 years without a good exit strategy

Amen

 

[cruisehopeful]

I'm actually super excited for it. I won't buy it, though. It's going to have more rooms than SSR. Between the number of rooms and it likely being restricted, it seems like it would be somewhat easy to book.

I would buy if the price is right just to be direct, but the price hasn't been right since 2023

Why? Because the title of the thread asked a general question as opposed to one based on ownership.

Finally, for the same reason you responded despite your lack of interest in the product. See how that works?

I own two dvc contracts . That’s why I am here on the dvc board . Not because I would never one a timeshare .

Congratulations on owning 2 DVC contracts; I own several real estate properties () but as I already stated no DVC contracts.
Doesn’t mean I don’t rent just I won’t buy.

Enjoy your purchases and day.

I think you’re missing the point . You are talking about how bad of a return timeshares are on a timeshare board . Thats odd.

Also if you think owning dvc contracts and other real estates or assets are mutually exclusive you are wrong . I’m sure most people on here own other real estate properties and assets .

I think it’s odd that you think the tax code is the same in every municipality and state. I only pointed out that I owned other types of R/E since you felt the need to bring that up. Tbh, I thought that .. a tad off topic and akin to boasting.

I’m glad timeshares are a good fit for you; they are not for me.

 

[Sandisw]

Let’s stop arguing. This thread is about purchasing DLL so let’s move back on topic.

 

[RamblinWreck]

I doubt I'll ever add on again. I already have too many points!
