[Foladar]

my hubby is taking me dec 8-10 for my birthday.Is the lodge under construction? I am un clear what the talk is about .I was hoping it would be decorated for the holidays as that is why we are coming . What is going on with the transpertation?

Heres a photo of the exterior construction we took last week.



And for the person asking about the stream, heres a photo I took during the afternoon last week ..

 

[AprilLizbeth]

DH and I will be there 12/18-20! WL is our favorite resort, I dont think we could ever get sick of it. See you all there!

 

[snogger]

WOW, By my count there will be 18 of us there during my family's first trip ever to WDW.
I didn't count those leaving on the 9th, or arriving on the 14th since the chances of running into to you are slim

Any ways, just wanted to say if you see these guys running around lost, feel free to help them:
First timers at WDW

BTW, my Daughter will be celebrating her 8th Birthday on the 11th of December and we are having 8:30am Breakfast at the castle that morning

Great job of grouping the Lodgers that will be there during your stay. What we need is for the groups to make a Mini-DIS Meet schedule:

Date:
Time:
Location:

All meets are casual, park cloths will be fine. You can just stop by for a few minutes or longer if you choose. We have had lodgers stop by that were at the pool area with family. Try not to be nervous you may lose your anonymity, but you may make life-long friends that share many common interest.

Over the last few years I have made many friends, including two of my best friends. One lives in Italy I only get to see her once a year, the other lives here in Florida and we try and visit a few times during the year. So ya never know.

Several meetings can be made throughout the dates posted. We have met next to the Spring in the Lobby near Humphrey, another option is in front of the fireplace or my favorite The Territory Lounge the hours for the lounge are seasonal but you would/will still have access to the lounge even if it isn't open.

So everyone start thinking about dates and times...Snooger would you like to set a meet date and time for the DIS Members that will be staying at the Lodge during your stay?

Anyone know how long the construction will be going on at WL?

Thanks

 

[Gabby&Liv's Mommy]

MagicinmyHeart, please add my family to the list. We will be there Dec 6 - 13th.
Thanks!

 

[MAGICinMYHEART]

Gosoxb

First WELCOME to the DIS, and the FAQ Thread.
I'm not sure anyone here or even at the Lodge knows how long all the construction at the Lodge will take. As construction is always subjective to many factors. I do know that the work being done is structural and not just cosmetic so it is taking time.

I was as the Lodge the week before last and while the scaffolding was up it in no way effected my enjoyment or stay at the Lodge. I'm sure that the CM at the lodge will do everything they can to make your stay great.

[TiggerAllie]

How late does the boat run between WL and CR? (or even MK and CR)

If we have a late dinner ressie at Cali Grill, and MK closes at 8PM (no MVMCP), how late can we plan on still being able to take the boat back to WL? I'd prefer not to drive, if possible.

TIA!
I'm almost down to 1 month to go!

The small Blue Flag Resort Boats operate from 7:00am-10:0pm. If the 10:00pm time doesn't work remember that another option would be to take the Resort Monorail at the CR to the TTC. Then catch the Wilderness Lodge Bus back to the Lodge, this route operates even after the Magic Kingdom is closed. As always I would check about this information while at the Lodge as thing do change.

Hi Fred!! You are still up to the same wonderful things (organizing and keeping track of DISers planning to meet at the WL), and never cease to amaze me with your generosity of both time and infinite Disney spirit! Just popping by to say "hello" and wish my best to you and your family. When ever I think of the WL, I always think of you (& Kimmar too), and the magical memory box...etc. All things wild and wonderful synonymous with this phenomenal resort!! ^_^

Hope life is perfect on your end, in every respect. Enjoy the evening and all the Holiday festivities with your little ones. Halloween is one of my favorites, and this one will be no different! Time to go and carve a couple DISNEY characters into the pumpkins...

Always,

DF99

Sure, put the pressure on a newbie.

There are only two days I know for sure we will be around the lodge for any length of time.

Saturday, December 9th - Our flight is scheduled to arrive around 12pm. We plan on spending the whole day at the lodge as this is my daughters first ever flight on a plane and my wife gets motion sickness in a car so will need to take the day to recover.
Currently our only plans are a carriage ride at 6pm and dinner at 8:10 pm at Whispering Canyon.
So any time after say 3pm & before 6pm would be good for us on that day.

Tuesday, December 12th - We are spending the day at AK which closes at 5pm.
From what I've read we will probably be done earlier than that and plan on spending the rest of the night at the Lodge.
Thinking anytime after 6pm would be a good time.

The rest of the trip is a "how we feel is how we go" type of a trip so no idea when we will be around the lodge.

If someone else wants to chime in and pick an exact time and place I will add it to our itinerary.

Less than 40 days now

Hey all you lodge lovers.....I just posted my Dece,ber 8th-13th pre trip report on the "pre-trip reports' thread. Thought you guys might be interested....and any feedback will be appreciated!

 

[Vivsmom]

I am unable to get the discount for Feb on my already booked courtyard view room at the WL. Have been offered a studio at VWL for a savings of $500. What can you tell me about the studio rooms? I have heard that they are pretty barren and not very well decorated? Any information or pictures would be greatly appreciated.
