If I understand it correctly, Starwind is booking a cash stay at Wilderness Lodge. Disney's cash reservation system has different booking criteria than the booking criteria used by DVC. For example, at Animal Kingdom Lodge, cash guests staying in a DVC villa can pay a premium and be guaranteed a villa overlooking the Arusha Savanna. For DVC members using points the Arusha Savanna can be requested but is not guaranteed.
We can quibble about the inequities between the cash reservation system and the DVC reservation system. But I think the DVC Guides are giving us accurate information about the booking categories at Copper Creek.
Yes, I understand she's booking a cash stay, but it hardly seems right to tell a cash paying guest they can book & guarantee a tub but a DVC member cannot. Pay a hefty $176/pt for the privilege of owning CCV, but we won't let you book a room with a tub? That's going to open a big can of ugly IMO from members that need a tub because they have small children. I guess we'll see what shows up on the member site when booking opens to everyone.
