***The VWL Groupies & Trivia Thread*** Chapter 2!

[Granny]

Well I am bummed...the DH won't give up the BWV view to try out VWL!!! So I will have to wait to join your groupies, until we finally get there! But we are going to do the Segway tour at FW, so we will be visiting. Really wanted to try it......so I'll have to live thru your pictures. So I hope all keep posting them!

You can join any time you'd like...don't have to own or even have stayed there. Lodge Love is a state of mind, not of ownership!

Tell your hubby that there are those like myself and my family who really, really like BWV. In fact, we are owners there. But it's worth it to give VWL a try and he'll see that it's just a different feeling altogether. I won't claim that the room views rival the Boardwalk View but the great thing about VWL/WL is the immersion in the theming throughout the resort and villas.

Tell him he's got a lot more years of WDW and why not go for a change of pace? My suggestion is to have lunch over at WL sometime or just stop by to visit. If the lobby and resort grounds don't hook him...well, it just might not be meant to be. But I'm guessing he would enjoy giving it a whirl, if only to satisfy your wishes!

ITA! Each DVC resort offers something unique, and with VWL, it's the magnificently rendered theme.

My plan is to have lunch at VWL after the segway tour...that will get him inside the lodge. I am hoping for that WOW factor to hit him then! We have nothing planned for 2010, so maybe after this lunch, I can get him to stay there then! Lets keep our fingers crossed, it really looks like a beautiful place! Ok, so I can be a groupie anyway? With the sig and all?

All righty then! Pixie dust for May reservation!!

PS You realize that once you adopt the Moose, you are required to submit a trip report including pictures once you return? And if you submit it while there, you get extra "Moosie" points! Thanks in advance!

Hey neighbor....you may have to talk your DH into going on a cash ressie like we did last January! What a wonderful place in the winter! Cozy...warm...fireplaces.... We loved it - and it was so-o worth it, even on cash!! We can't wait to go again!!

(PS) I went thru your neck of the woods in MD last weekend on my way to a wedding in PA...went straight up Rt 27....told DH "there's a DIS'er around here somewhere"! He was like "A What?"

Awesome pics!!! Thanks for posting! I will be showing the DH these today! Well I convinced him to let us stay there if I can get it at 7 mos (so this Friday I will call......). Yep, you past right by me. Do you remember driving by the mall on 140 and then on 27? Not far from there!!

 

[BWV Dreamin]

Would anyone happen to have a pic of the geiser pool (we can swim in that one, right?)

 

[loribell]

Well the geyser is not really a pool. It is just behind the main pools hot tub. I will see if I can find a pic that shows both.

Assuming the geyser pool means the main pool?

Here are a couple of pix

A nice view from the lodge out to the pool and Bay Lake

Hey Groupies,

Glad to see some of you are posting pics. We spent a good bit of time at the Lodge today but I won't be able to post pics as I had hoped. I was counting on my daughters camera. She has the cord to connect to my laptop and upload pictures. I reminded her 5 minuted before we left for the lodge to bring her camera. Of course she forgot it. We did get some pictures with my camera but I don't have anyway to upload those pics. My cousin is staying at VWL and that seems to be our family reunion meeting place so I will get some pics on the forgetful ones camera and post during the week.

Took the boat from the lodge for the dinner buffet at Trails End. First time we have had dinner here and I can say I prefer their breakfast. We did Chip and Dales campfire and the movie for the first time and the kids really enjoyed that. Thought for sure someone was going to lose an eye at the fire pit making those smores. Young kids with sticks and flaming marshmellows seem like an accident waiting to happen.. Have to get some rest...I'll update with pics soon.
