OKW Lovers Thread. Part 2

Does anyone know if they’ve restarted the OKW to Disney Springs boat service since the Hurricane closures?
 
While, not necessarily an OKW Lover, I am thrilled to have just gotten a one night stay in an OKW studio for the night of December 9. We canceled a cruise and wanted one extra night at WDW, and rooms were sold out months ago! We had a night off site, and for us, that’s just not the same. Thank you, whoever cancelled!!
 

Has anyone been recently on a cash reservation? How’s housekeeping been? We’re used to being here on DVC points, but have a cash stay for 7 nights in a 2 bedroom coming up in Nov/Dec. DM wants to start making tip envelopes, so trying to figure how much we’d need.

If you do online check-in you can declined daily housekeeping services, and thus cut down on the number of tipping envelopes. Also, if it is Member Cash, reservation though DVC, you will follow the same housekeeping as a regular DVC Points reservation.

We don’t mind the tipping, haha. It’s just something nice we like to do. And it’s CRO. Used the AP discount.
 
Something happened there last night. Phone call first thing this a.m.- they had to take 5 -2 bed villas out of service. Sounds more like someone with clout came to town and wanted them all. I was moved to the Poly CL and my points returned for the night.
 
Hi all... a question about the bus routes through OKW. From the top of this thread the bus stop order is:

1. Peninsular Road
2. South Point Road
3. Old Turtle Pond Road
4. Miller's Road
5. North Cove Road (Hospitality House)

I assume this order hasn't changed. I thought I had read that the busses will sometimes also stop at the HH first before continuing on to Peninsular? Is this true? Does any of this change based on time of day? I was there in 2019 but wasn't paying much attention to all the comings and goings of the busses, and even then things change so... I ask.

Last month, we were on a bus heading back to OKW that was about to go out of service, so the driver asked all of us which stop we wanted. It was just Hospitality House and one other stop, so he stopped at Hospitality House first. So that's one reason it might stop at HH first.

We also had this happen late night. We were leaving Epcot and there were 2 families on the bus, driver asked us what stop and just went to those two stops. So nice.
 
Yes, Pack-n-Plays may be in the unit, if not just push the phone button for housekeeping and they will bring you one.
 
That is a smart thing to do, the test run. Especially over Thanksgiving. There are people I see over Thanksgiving week that are best experienced with an adult beverage.

I will be at OKW in Jan 2023 and see that they have charcoal grills only.

I will be bringing my own charcoal, lighter fluid, and utensils (we drive-no flight for us!)

If I walk up to a grill and it is full of old, cold, ashes.......where do I put them?

Any tips on the situation? Many other resorts have gas grills.....but not this one!

Gonna do burgers and chicken.

Staying in a studio so I will do a batch and have leftovers the next day.
