How many of you are hoping to purchase Lakeshore?

Won’t buy because I already own direct at the 3 monorail resorts plus BRV - and I’ll be 70 this year.

I'm really interested in hearing about the point chart and initial cost per point. If the lazy river is like Aulani's or better, then it would be pretty desirable to me. However, the size of the resort does give me pause, we don't need more WDW points, and we don't need a long contract, so in the end it will probably be a no.

We know it will be restricted
And 99% chance it will be in the trust to avoid the condo rules for inspection
99% boat and bus like wilderness lodge

We don’t know if the cabins will be attached
We don’t know the point chart or MF

So I am not considering it. It’s too much like WL and I don’t expect the theming to be as good based on PIT

I would say that I'm intrigued but there are so many variables and so little information it's hard to say yes right now. Obviously all the issues people have mentioned (Dues, Trust ,Transport, Points chart) are a huge factor. The lazy river/pool complex could be a deciding factor for me (I covet BCV) and the dining options would be a pretty big deal to me too. IF they offer the standalone cabin options that they originally had in the Reflections plans (including the Mojo Dojo Casa Cabungaboats) that would be a pretty serious upside for me too (It doesn't look like they plan on doing any of that anymore but who knows).

Most has already been said. It's all about the Point Charts, expected Annual Dues and whether or not it's combined with CFW. On the latter, this might actually induce us to buy a small contract. We'd like to be able to access CFW at the 11-month mark to bring the dog occassionally, but not at the current annual dues required. If LL get's wrapped into the trust and effectively lowers the annual dues, it could be enough to get us to committ (but even then, we'd probably wait for a resale to come on the market).

As a standalone, I think it will be nice, and the lazy river is very tempting. But there's not enough exciting to justify a contract at this resort on its own. CCV offers what looks to be better theming and what will likely be much better points charts.

We bought direct for all our points specifically to be able to get into the new resorts (and because Riviera is our favorite.).

If LSL is as big as planned (900 rooms, IIRC?) then we should be able to get in there at the high point view rooms at seven months.

They really would have to nail the amenities and plus up the transportation to get us to think about buying. Our Riviera and Poly points cover us into our 90s and beyond, so no need for additional years.

If we hadn’t bought in already, we’d be considering it, but we’re totally spoiled with the Skyliner and dedicated buses at Riviera.
