Is there a good view of Illuminations from the Beach Club? Not from a room, but on the grounds? We'll be at BCV and I'm sure we won't end up with a view from our room, so I was wondering if there are any good places to view it from the resort. Or, if we should just plan on viewing it from Epcot.

There some spots where you can see the higher fireworks but you have to be in EPCOT to see the majority of the show.
 
Of course, your best bet for viewing Illuminations is from within Epcot. But, you can see some of it from the Boardwalk area outside the BC. The best view I think would be from the area in front of Jellyrolls -- the dance hall/club halfway between the Boardwalk Inn and the BC/YC. We were there a few days ago and stood closer to BI, but our view was limited. We walked down the Boardwalk a little further (in front of dance hall) and got a better view. I know we missed a lot of it because we went to Epcot and saw the whole thing, but for a little free fireworks magic you can't beat the view off the Boardwalk.
 
We have watched it on the bridge where the boats go under, near ESPN.
 

Even if you can see some of it from outside the park, you really should be inside to really experience the whole show. It's much more than just fireworks. Plus the music is fantastic and you'll want to be sure you can hear it.
