The we loooooove Club Wyndham Bonnet Creek Part 4

[OSUZorba]

If we arrive to check in with groceries that need to be kept cold or frozen and our room isn’t ready yet, can WBC store them? Or should we get into our room first and then go to the grocery? Our plane arrives just after 1:00, so it would be great to hit the grocery on the drive in! TIA!

Yes, the bell hops will store your food no problem. Or at least they did pre-corona. If you aren't going to get to the resort before 3 your room will likely be ready when you get there too.

Not sure when it was built, but there is a new Ice Cream shop by the lobby named Scoops. I went there tonight and it was very good, and a much better value than ice cream in the Parks.

Wait. What.

Tell me more.

I hadn't ever seen it before, but it had 12 flavors, many unique and good, like Peanut Butter Cookies and Cream. Could get sundaes, shakes, splits, or just scopes. I got brownie Sundaes, which had a large warm brownie, three good sized scoops, whip cream, fudge and choice of topping.

I was really happy with it. If I go by there again I'll get some pictures.

By the lobby of the Club Wyndham Bonnet Creek Resort? Where we have to go past it or see it when we go to check in? Uh-oh! If my DH sees it, I know where we'll be getting dessert while we're there!

The key is, how overpriced is it? I am sure it is cheaper than ice cream at Disney, but how would it compare to a place like DQ (Or Twistie Treat, Ginther's) that are around Orlando?

I'm not very familiar with places around Orlando. Cheaper than the parks or DS. Probably a little more than DQ, but completely different. More expensive than Braums, in Oklahoma, but cheaper than Grater's or Kilwins. I'd say for food it's the best value at the resort.

It's actually at the back of the breezeway in the lobby building. If you park in the check in parking and then stay in one of the other towers it'd be easy to miss.

Thanks! Now to mull over whether to tell DH or not - that brownie sundae sounds fantastic, and he misses Braum's from when we lived in N. Texas.

Here are some pics I got today. There were people at the counter so I didn't get any inside pictures (pretty small inside).

I'll be checking in next week and I was wondering if they have opened up any of the activities or hot tubs yet?

Can you scan and post the activity schedule when you have a chance? Curious about what they have going on these days. Thanks.

Hot tubs are all closed. They have started doing some group activities. All of the pools, mini-golf, shuffle board, etc are open, but you have to get a reservation for everything except the pool (learned the hard way, after we left MK early to come play mini-golf and weren't allowed to, to the great disappointment of my 4 yo).

Supposedly, the hotel hot tub is open, but I've never seen that pool actually open. I've only been by it at night, after 7 pm, though.

I haven't seen any activity schedules posted, I'll look tomorrow to see if I notice one. Didn't get one with my welcome package.

Plan on arriving this week. Do the 1 bedroom deluxe have keurig k-cup, or do they have regular coffee makers?

Regular coffee makers with coffee, filters and coffee lightener/sweetener packs are supplied. Tea and Lemonade along with a package of microwave popcorn were also supplied.

Great, thank you

Is the mini-golf open now? If so, what's the cost? And are there any times it's less crowded than others, e.g. mornings vs. afternoons, weekdays vs. weekends?

Golf is free. You have to sign up in advance right now so it’s really not a matter of one time being busier than another. They only let so many people play at a time.
