Is BCV that bad?

[DisDaydreamer]

BWV has wonderful views and nothing beats the OVIR at VB or the savanna rooms at AKV.

hello, my good friend... haven't seen you for a while... You are right that nothing beats the VB OVIR, but we have seen it so many times that we now want to stay in a 1 bdrm with a kitchen... So, we will pass up the view for the amenities... Just an evolution I think...

Starbox is the original VB lover's thread author and originator of the VB chair swap....

Can't tell you how much I look forward to her posts.... brilliant...

Rob, good to see you back, even if it is just for a quick visit. Hope everything is going great for you!!

I'll be at BCV in 8 days (staying at CR for the weekend). It will be our first visit and we'll be deciding on whether we'll be doing an add-on here or BWV sometime later in 2009.

Thanks, anonymousegirl... I am greatful to have DIS friends like you... Glad to be back...

Now I'm on fire for the BCV! What a beautiful property, and so close to the great food at Epcot!

Cant Wait to be there

This thread is dangerous! It's giving me add-on-itis and I haven't even stayed at AK yet lol.
Just curious, is it ever possible to get a reservation at BWV or BCV at the 7 month mark?

We did get a reservation at BCV at the 7 month mark, for this May.
It is possible.

Possible yes, but getting harder and it will only get worse as the membership increases. Buy where you love to stay.

Well my DH and I are total view people....thats why we bought at BWV, BLT, and Vero Beach. We don't do the parks commando......we are rather wine and cheese people (can we say F&W Festival!) and do love a view from our balcony. To each his own!

DITTO!!
sitting on a BW view balcony with a glass of wine in hand, watching the fireworks, the people, the BW activity...........that balcony is one of our favorite things about vacation
we had EPCOT views at BCVs, & like others, were not pleased about the road view/sound (coffee & listening to the BW quiet in the AM is amazing). relaxing & enjoying what WDW has to offer besides park attractions keeps our vacations so pleasurable.
on a side note, we've little interest in visting hawaii (remote areas by the ocean, or in africa enthrall us, however) ~ thank goodness for choices

We love BCV! We have never had what I consider a bad view. Last summer we had a 3rd floor pool view room and loved it. We are going back over Christmas and can't wait!!!

I stayed there once before and had a view of the trees.That is not why I bought in to the beach club DVC i bought into it for SAB and that the resort was just so beautiful. The way i figure it i am never in the room but to sleep anyway so why waste a good view..LOL

I just called on Sat. for a studio at BCV from 8/16-23 and there was 1 night not available. I booked BWV instead and waitlisted BCV...I checked the DVC website yesterday and we already had our waitlist come thru! It will be our first stay there too. This was our first time waitlisting and I'm thrilled that it came thru that fast!
