When we planned a Thanksgiving trip a few years ago, the only
DVC resort we could get in to from the Wed. before to the Fri. after Thanksgiving was Vero, so we went there first then drove up to WDW and stayed at OKW for the weekend (we made the reservations in July). We had two garden view Inn rooms at Vero for the six of us, as there were no villas available. We had a really nice time. Vero was full, and there was a lot going on. They had several seatings for a Turkey day buffet.
