What time is better to plan a trip to DL?

Looking at Jan 18-21, Feb 15-18, or wk of Jul 21. Trying to get a dvc room - ha! Waiting until now is like looking for a needle in a haystack . However, was wondering about weather and crowds then.

TIA!

In January and February you might see rain while you're there.
Obviously July would be nice weather.

Your dates in January would put you there smack dab in the middle of the Tinkerbell 1/2 marathon weekend. Pretty busy.

Your dates in February would put you there during President's Day weekend(I'm guessing you know that). Pretty busy.

And as you can guess, July will be...pretty busy.

If you absolutely have to go on one of those dates, then I suppose I would choose January. Touring Plans is calling for slightly less crowded days than your other dates. 7-9's instead of 9-10's.

Personally I'd go with January for the cooler weather, but honestly since you're past the 7 month mark on the first two, July is your best odds since the 7 month mark is still upcoming for a DVC room, just be up at 8a E.S.T. for your dates, and you might actually have a shot at getting something. I have that weekend in February reserved for a friend and those points are crazy high!

July is likely to be the most crowded. Here is some weather info:
