Clerestory lights also free up wall space for things like cabinets and Murphy beds in spaces that otherwise would be lost to regular windows.Admittedly I have seen campgrounds / parks with privy buildings that look like this.
…but I’ve also seen tiny homes like that too.
Having passive light while still having privacy is nice, and that common root is something desirable in both privies and in tiny homes.
I thought so. That screws over the long time guest who booked the cabins each year, yet do not want to be a part of DVC.
There’s currently 407 cabins available for cash bookings on 8 loops. When this thread first started and there were estimated to be ~350 DVC cabins, there was speculation of additional amenity construction contributing to a reduction in units. They already announced they’d be on the same pads, so we know it’s not because of a larger footprint per site. Now that the permit application has been filed, it’s confirmed there’s 363 units on the application.
Just to ask... If you KNOW that you are going to go to the cabins each year (or heck, even every other year), and they become part of DVC, why would you still want to book them on cash and not purchase into DVC?
They took the cabins out of 2100 loop several years back and converted that loop back to camp sites.
I believe that’s where the cabin I posted upthread came from. If you look at the pics, it’s one of the post-2016 (call them “refurb”) cabins, and not one of the original ones that were swapped out when they were all upgraded.
Because of the buy-in cost? To wit: the burgeoning DVC financing market. Then there's the annual dues cost.
OK, but if they are truly going every year, or every other year, and paying cash, it will be cheaper to purchase a DVC point contract. Otherwise, they'd never sell any DVC contracts.
It's the same reason people buy toothpaste on an as-needed basis at Dollar Tree instead of Costco. They don't want to buy using credit cards. Cash flow.
Again, I get that. But if you are truly staying in these cabins each year, your cash flow is going to be much more negative by using cash reservations instead of purchasing DVC.
You say you get it, but then still argue that making financial sense (which it does) is the only factor in determining whether or not to buy DVC. Some people don't want to spend money they don't have (or don't want to tie up in DVC), to prepay their vacations.
Yep, I only posted because Mikey15 was under the impression that loop 2100 still has cabins.
Just backing you up.
Your cash flow is not going to be in the black for many years, even though the net value can be positive relatively quickly.
Additionally, not everyone wants that level of commitment in order to have the freedom to not Disney after a handful of years depending on stages of life.
Agree with both of you.
Sure. I just took that comment a little less literal than a lifetime commitment every year
Very true!
