As SoG is not slated to re-open until sometime in December of 2003, any reservation made now will automatically route you over to the CR.
They are taking reservations at SoG prices though.
If you want to guarantee (as much as possible) getting into SoG after it re-opens, book a stay starting on December 20 or so. That way you have a decent chance of getting into the newly renovated SoG Resort.
I hope that this information helps a bit........
