The we loooooove Club Wyndham Bonnet Creek Part 4

If you grill at the resort do you bring everything down for your meal and eat at a picnic area, or carry what you grilled back up? I've always wondered about that. Seems like if you were on a higher floor it would be a pain to bring everything down for a whole meal, but it also might be odd to bring your sizzling steaks back into the elevator. I suppose whatever works right? I am pretty sure we will make use of the grills once or twice.

Sorry if already asked a million times, but all rooms have a balcony right?

Since we didn't rally do too much cooking on our first trip I didn't pay too much attention to the cooking utensils available, and I really should have for future reference since it was clear that we'd be returning!

Anyone have a list of what's in the drawers? And how about grilling implements? We saw some folks grilling on those great-looking grills and definitely plan to do a couple of meals like that on our next trip. Should we plan to pack along a spatula and tongs, or are they provided? If you use the grills and sit at the picnic tables, do you bring along your own paper plates? Or are a few provided? And DH and I can bring down an adult beverage to have while grilling and eating, correct?

I've seen people checking out grilling supplies, like tongs, from the activities desk.

I've had many elevator rides with people bringing back platters of sizzling goodness. Ah, the smells!

Some rooms on 1st floor have a small patio.

We usually bring everything down and eat at the tables. Being from New England, we want to get outside and eat! I also feel like it is easier to carry things down that are not cooked than carry things up that are cooked. Last time we grilled at the new grills that were near the playground, that was great for the kids.

We just got a two night stay at WBC from Hotwire 2/26-2/28. It is advertised as a one bedroom condo. What is the likelihood that we will get a 1BR vs 2BR? The 1BR would be fine, just wondering....

If you have room, I would pack tongs or something for bbq'ing. Depending on where you are located, it could be a pain going back and forth to activities desk to check out bbq stuff.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing! I might even pick up an inexpensive set and leave it in the Pay-it-Forward bin.

I'm guessing it will be a 1 bedroom.

We would love to stay at Bonnet Creek on our next trip but my daughter has a service dog. Will they allow us to bring her service dog?

Ok complete newbie here! Just booked a 3 night in 1 bdr. stay directly through wyndham for 3/21-3/24. After reading through this site i sent an email to vacation upgrades to see if they have a better price for me. Makes me nervous as i have never used a service like that before. Never stayed at "timeshare" before even as a regular rental. I see that there will be no daily housekeeping service and I'm fine with that. What else is important for me to know? Also, we will be spending a good deal of time at the resort with 2 kids 5 and 8. Any suggestions for room request? Also not sure if we will have rental car. does resort offer shuttle to sea world or legoland? not doing Disney or Universal this trip! Thanks for all advice!

Even if they allow you to bring it, they don't seem to be a dog-friendly chain (per a review website). Even though I love the resort, I would probably pick a more dog-friendly resort chain to stay at (there are many and they will make it much easier to have the dog onsite).

If your daughter's dog is a registered service animal, they must allow the animal to be on property. It is covered in the ADA. It is illegal for them to deny it.

I always pack a 31 Tote and we take everything down and eat at one of the picnic tables. We meet a lot of interesting people that way

Has anyone stayed in suite 1824? We were told it is a presidential reserve 2 bedroom suite. Does anyone know what floor this room would be on and if you have stayed in it before to let know about.

Presidential 2 Bedroom Suites .. are in Building 6

IIRC .. the first two numbers indicate the floor level .. 1824 will be on the 18th floor.

As per the map .. 1824 will be on the 18th floor and does not face the lake.
