My mom is not a big fan of it (and she owns there)...she thinks it is too dark. She also doesn't like that you cannot "walk" to any park, and she thinks that at night there is NOTHING to do around there. Obviously, my mom is a BIG fan of the Epcot resorts. She bought into
DVC "sight unseen". I tried to talk her into BWV or BCV...but, she had her mind set. On her first trip home, she went to BWV first (couldn't get into VWL) and then switched to VWL after a couple of nights....she actually cried when she got to her room (it didn't help that she had the ONE studio in VWL with no patio). She said she felt like she was "living in an attic".
After a couple of days she softened up on the place. But, she still plans to sell her VWL and buy BWV or BCV someday.
I think VWL is quaint and charming! If she sells her points, I might have to "snatch them up".
