The first few weeks in May, to me are wonderful, Lows are in the high 60's, Highs are usually about 85. This is my favorite time to visit WDW.

They also did it at Wilderness Lodge, like I said I think it's now part of the Tour, or dependent on a particular season.

Just back from WDW and I did check on a few items while I was at the Wilderness Lodge:


The Family Plans have been discontinued with no information as to if they will be offered again anytime soon.

*Recreation Family Plans:
Plan includes the Water Mouse, Pontoon Boats, Canopy Boats, Sailboats and Bicycles, (Cruises and Surry Bikes NOT included)
Captain Plan: 4 hours of rental per Group $115 plus tax
Family Plan: Length of Stay Plan (Weekly Rate for Use of Equipment Listed Above) $199.00 plus
tax (Up to 5 Guests per Plan)

...cuz' that was such a FANTASTIC deal! (Especially since 2 of my DS's are teens, who took full advantage of it.....oh well )

I agree, it was one of the best deals going...I guess when we pay the new boats off, they will offer us a discount again.

The rates have gone UP! SURPRISE! I noticed in DopeySharon's post that Disney called her and told her the plan was back. Curiosity got the best of me so I called the number on my BCV reservation. That person said they couldn't help me and put me through to CRO. They have never heard of such a plan, tried to tell me it didn't exist. I asked her to put me through to WL front desk (the real front desk), she gave me the number and I called again. At first the CM again acted like he had no clue what I was talking about and asked when I had last visited. He then said "let me see if anyone will answer in the Marina." He came back to the phone and reluctantly gave me the rates and warned that even though the plan is offered right now, that it can be removed at any time, and it would be best to check when I arrive at my resort. Anyway here are the rates....

Unlimited plan for 10 days- $239.00 + tax
Captains plan - $125.00 + tax (I guess still for 4 hours)

Just thought you might like to know. Its still a decent deal, IMHO.

 

[BambiTamby]

Wow! I just was on that board tonight and read it too!

Fingers crossed....

 

[HughJackman'n'me]

...KEWL!! Now I jes' gotta find a way to get my a** back to WL!!

Hey, guys, I MAY not be on the DIS for the next week or so; I can't log in on EITHER of my user names (GRRRR !!) so, if I can't, then:
'HOPPY' EASTER!!

Hi, is was a special rate that Resort guest that where staying at any of the Resorts that have Marinas could get.

*Recreation Family Plans:
Plan includes the Water Mouse, Pontoon Boats, Canopy Boats, Sailboats and Bicycles, (Cruises and Surry Biles NOT included)
Captain Plan: 4 hours of rental per Group $115 plus tax
Family Plan: Length of Stay Plan (Weekly Rate for Use of Equipment Listed Above) $199.00 plus
tax (Up to 5 Guests per Plan)

You could purchase the Captain Plan: and receive 4 hours of rental time for a set price, But the best was The Family Plan you could purchase the plan and receive unlimited use of all the equipment for the entire time your family was staying at the resort.
These plans where availiable until a short time ago, when Disney purchased a fleet of new boats replacing the WaterMouse. So we where upset that we would now have to go back paying an hour or 1/2 hour fee for the use of the boats or bikes.

Hope this is what you wanted.

Just an FYI.

It looks like some rooms have opened up at WL with the BBY code for the time in May when we are going.

They had several different room types available this morning when I called. Why I called, I don't know. We have a package and this code does not help us.

They did have the concierge room available at a rate of $285 per night with the BBY code.

Hope this helps someone make a new reservation or apply BBY to their existing reservation.
