I was very suprised about this. I never expected to get the Boardwalk for our October visit, since it is the F&W Festival. We originally booked 7 months out with availability at OKW for 4 nights and the last two nights at BWV. I requested to be put on the wait list as just a whim.

As per my call this morning, we now have the last 5 nights at BWV. The first night is still OKW. BWV will be very convenient for us for walking to Epcot.

So anyway.... Don't give up hope. It really can happen even during F&W.
 
Congratulations!! One of my two BWV waitlists came through (12/26). I'm still waiting for 12/31 (NYE). I'm not too optimistic, but anything can happen!
 
Congrats! Next week we are doing a split stay with our last 4 days at BCV's. We were on a waitlist for the first 3 days at either BCV or BWV. Two days ago I called since our waitlist had expired and could not believe it but a studio at BWV's opened up! It was the 3rd time I called that day. It pays to be persistent! :thumbsup2
 

:thumbsup2 :banana: Mine too!

It must be decision time for the October visitors. I had 1 day booked in a SV Studio and then we decided to stay another day so I had to waitlist because I wanted SV so we don't have to change rooms.

Got the call y-day from DVC, booked it and linked it and we are ready to go! :cheer2:

Member Cruise 2006 and F&WF here we come! :cheer2:
 
Maybe there's hope for me yet....

I'm still waitlisted for Oct 8-13 for any type studio at BWV. Of course if it doesn't come thru, we'll be fine at OKW. :goodvibes
 
We were wait listed for 2 days for the BWV Oct 1 and 5th both came in :cool1: . You never know. Good Luck.
 
Congrats! :thumbsup2 Looks like there'll be a whole bunch of Dis-ers at the BW for food & wine!

Oct '06 for us, too
Jan '07 again, yaaaaay!

:wave: :wave: :wave:
 
we were booked at BWV and waitlisted at BCV for 10/22 and it came through so I hope our BWV room went to a DISer on the waiting list!
 
Congratulations! :Pinkbounc We will be at BWV in Oct also. Great, great place to be to enjoy the food & wine festival, especially if you are attending any of the special events, wine tastings, cooking demos, etc.
We have our Oct trip all set--BWV 2 br boardwalk view! :Pinkbounc
What we are now waiting for is NYE and the day before at VWL. We are not holding out much hope and have the villa booked on cash. But ouch! it is expensive to pay cash for a DVC villa on NYE!
 
Glad to hear it came thru for you.
 
I am waitlisted for a SV studio at the boardwalk for 10/14-10/17. Have been for quite a while. I hope by posting on this board, I will get pixiedusted.
 
We DID cancel our reservation for Boardwalk during F&W festival - maybe you were lucky enough to pick up our reservation! Stayed at the Boardwalk Villas for the first time this past summer - it was THE BEST...love the location.
ONly recommendations we would make, with our teenagers, is a little marketplace like Beach Club added - to refill their mugs. Don't like the transportation to DD either, but everything else, perfect. Would stay there
in a heartbeat - LOVED it, we also had a great location for our studio.
We were also waitlisted for some of the days (for a standard view) and
our view came through so we didn't need to move. Stayed 10 days and
loved EVERY minute of it. Also helped to have our DIS friends there at
the same time (5 families that we met last year on The Magic)
Good Luck - Lucy
