    First half of first DVC stay - Poly or SSR (or whatever)?

    Poly lake view is awesome! Give it a shot, you can always buy more points later 🤣

    DVC just called and said we are changing your reservation

    From DVC's perspective, both views require the same amount of points. At one time you could not even choose boardwalk vs. pool/garden view. Not saying I agree with them, but that's why they are saying that.

    Fort Wilderness Cabins Cannot Stave Off Slow March 2024 Direct Sales

    Thanks Sandi. I will definitely not be buying this. No way am I handing them this flexibility. They've proven in the past that they can't help themselves even when they don't have the contractual flexibility.

    150 pts to get blue card... what happens in the future?

    I still think they will eventually introduce tiered benefits. Could be 150/300/500 or whatever. Grandfathered contracts will only qualify someone for the first level.

    Interesting, I haven't received the Winter or Spring issues (assuming that Spring is out).

    New DVC owner needing advice

    To answer the original question, yes, modifying back to a 1BR would use the holding points as long as you selected the contract(s) with holding points.

    Just added on 300 pts at OKW direct with Disney at $135 per point thru 2057. Added magical beginnings and that reduced the price to $115 per point.

    They are going to get me to buy 300 points on this fire sale, aren't they? Damn you DVC.

    Does anyone ever actually win the dvc trips?

    Yes, I plan on winning this time. If you want to know who the winner is, the official rules should tell you how to obtain that information. But don't bother for this sweepstakes, because it will be me.

    Addonitis will take care of the 28 points needed.

    BCV March Reservation Strategy

    I'm betting I could stalk and waitlist my way to a week reservation for nearly any week of the year for a 1 BR at Beach Club if I had 7 months to piece it together.
