Hi, Everyone!!
I had my first WL experience in 2002 on my honeymoon
. Since then, we bought a DVC contract at AKV and we have not made it back to the "other" lodge, except to dine. DH rarely travels to WDW anymore, but my best friend loves Disney as much as I do, so we make an annual "girls trip" using my DVC membership. I've stayed at AKV, BWV, BLT, RR, and OKW....but havenlt made it back to VWL/CCV.
This year, instead of our usual October trip, my friend decided she wanted to try December so we could enjoy the holiday decorations and Christmas atmosphere. Obviously, my first thought was the Wilderness Lodge! I shuddered at the thought of trying to get a reservation at the 7-month window in December, but I did it!! We have our first three nights in a boardwalk view studio at BWV and then we have the last four nights (Dec 13-17) in a 1BR at Boulder Ridge
.
The refurbishment looks amazing and I am glad that neither of us will need to sleep on a sleeper sofa. So now, I turn to you guys...
Tell me EVERYTHING I need to know to make our Christmas at the Lodge magical
... everything from transportation to dining to room requests...I want to learn from the insiders.
(Mainly...I want to avoid the "dumpster view" room
)
Thanks in advance...and I am so happy I found this (epic!) thread
.
