We were just told by our travel agent that this is true. It's almost sold out. We are staying at WL 12/6 to 12/11 after our cruise on the Wonder.

Remember this is also the week for MouseFest so it's gonna be crazy!!

Fred

Disney reservations told us that the hotel is practically sold out already. Does anyone think this is possible?

I can't wait to see the Lodge at Christmas time! You all have helped us with our decision for visiting during the holiday season. Thank you so much!

Thank you so much for the information. I know this may sound silly, but what is Mousefest? Does this happen every Dec.? We decided to go next Dec. 2008, so I want to know when is the best week to be at the WL during the holiday. My Mom wanted to go right after Thanksgiving, but I thought it would be crazy at MK because of the Christmas Parade taping and Pop Warner week. I thought the second week might be perfect. Any advice you all could give me would be wonderful.

I was told on 8/30 by a cm who was behind the registration desk that WL was sold out into January! I was looking forward to an upgrade when we checked in on 8/26 but it didn't happen. If the WL is sold out, upgrades may be impossible.

 

[Ranger1873]

Is there a DVD player in the room at the Wilderness Lodge?

If so would anyone know what make and model it is?

I have a upcoming reservation for 2 rooms Sept 26th-30th and was wondering if kings are the same price as doubles? Also what is the best way to make requests? I've heard that you can call the hotel directly about 4-5 days and request through the front desk.

That is sooo not true. I am thinking of changing to a different type of room on my ressie and just called yesterday and have been checking the web site daily and am always able to pull "something" available up and days in Dec. May not be standard rooms but there is usually something that pops up.

Just watch requesting kings because some of them are handicap and do not have a tub only a walk in shower. They are the same price though.

 

[kabbie]

Did any of the kings connect to doubles?

I can't answer your question, but wanted to add that there is 2 queens not doubles.

Sounds like you booked a perfect trip! I know you will LOVE "The Lodge". It's the kind of place you just want to go "home" to over and over again....
Enjoy your vacation!

You'll have a wonderful time at WL. When you first walk into the lobby you can't believe it!! Those are also great choices for ADR's!!

I am SOOOOO excited! Our first time staying IN a Disney Resort during Christmas. We thought that staying in Disney would be the best to totally experience the true meaning of "disney christmas". Last time we were there for the Christmas season, we missed SOOOO much!

I am so honored to be a member of this great group of people who love the WL. From the first time we stepped in there to eat at WC we knew that we NEEDED to stay there. MERRY Christmas all
