Old Faithful Club is the name of their concierge level rooms.

We'll be at WL for 3 nights this Dec. What's "not to miss"? We might try to eat at WCC the day we check in (depending on availability and how tired we are, as we've eaten there before--yum!) and we have reservations for AP and the sleigh ride the second night. (Does the bar/lounge let you walk off with glasses, mugs, snacks?) We'll definitely check out the pool/hottubs at some point (if the weather is ok).
What else have I forgotten???

 

[susie2]

thank you, thats great susie2

You can't trick me! I know about that whole ketchup thing!
Good thing I don't need ketchup for the canyon skillet!
I do love ketchup....

My wife is aware of the Ketchup thing, but not my daughter.

We are going to make sure to have her ask for a bottle.

We have reservations for dinner there the day we arrive so that should get the trip off on a start.

Please update my listing on the December visitor's list.

December 2-8, 2007 is now Concierge.

Hope to see some of you this December, but unfortunately I'm leaving on the 9th.

Look for my LGMH on the door Nov 28-Dec 4! Hopefully we will run into each other- it will just be me and DBF

How do you put the LGMH on the door? Will they leave it there? We used to put things in our windows in the exterior-hallway hotels, but what do you with interior hallways?

We'll be there Dec 2-4.

We have 7:00am ADR at CR with Chief Mickeys, I see the boat starts at 7:00am, have the boats ever started ealier or would be better to just get a taxi and not worry if i took the 7:00am boat and got the C.M. late

Thanks

Hello All,

Does WL do a storytime in the evening? If so do you know how I could get more info.

Thanks

Thanks - now that I've spent an hour reading about what a LGMH is and learning the Focker's signal, I guess I should go to bed so I can get up early and raid my local Home Depot's.

I'm sure my DW is REALLY going to think I'm nuts.

Anyone else listening to the WL Christmas Loop or the Osborne Spectacle of Lights loop? It's really getting me in the spirit. It also just adds to my wife's confirmation that, yes, I'm nuts! At least it's better than when I was listening to it this summer.

 

[DLBDS]

What info do they keep in the room as far as maps/locations, restaurants (menus/hours), phone numbers, etc.? I was wondering how much WDW resort info I would have in my room 'cause we won't have a computer to access the Internet. Is it all just about the WL or do they provide info on the other resorts too in the room?

I am so excited. When I booked for Dec. 2007 the only rooms they had available at WL were courtyard bunkbeds. Since I didn't want to be stuck without a room, I got that. I've been checking Disney's website every day and finally today it looks like they released all the rooms for next Dec. I was able to book a deluxe room! With two teenagers (a boy and a girl) we just need a little more room and now we have it!!

[Druvion]

its a very cool place I love it

 

[BlakeNJ]

Hello everyone. I have seen this place in my dreams for months and now we are finally here! Everything is beautiful. We requested connecting rooms with my in-laws but they didn't have anything tonight so we are switching tomorrow. The front desk was very accomodating. There is still some scafolding up but I have only seen it in the courtyard area and near the end of the north side. We are in room 5117. I had to really stretch my head off the balcony to see the EWP but it was still great! Things are still hopping around here and it's almost 11pm. I'll post a little more tomorrow.

Thanks again for all your advice!

I'm in the same boat. I booked exactly 500 days out for Dec 2007, but the only thing they had were courtyard bunkbeds. I told them there was NO way they sold out that many rooms before I had called. After trying several reps, I got one who had worked in CRO for quite a long time and she said that the first week of December is when they film the Christmas Parade with Reg and Kelly and it's also the time for the Dis/ABC exec Christmas party so they block out a ton of rooms (mostly the best ones) since many of the cast/crew of the parade and exec's come for an extended stay. Once they get a better idea of how many rooms they really need, they start releasing them.

This past Monday, it appears the Club Level rooms must have just come available because I was able to upgrade, but couldn't as of 2 weeks ago. Looks like I'm all set for 2007. I got the revised bill 3 days later.
