We'll, after a lifetime of visiting Disney (first visit in 1974, I'm 38 now), 6 weekly stays in the last 10 years, and a family of 4 that can't get enough Disney I finally bit the bullet and made the commitment to join DVC. I'm purchasing a 200pt contract at AKV and can't be more excited. I just put my deposit down today so we are very early in the process but I already feel different, like I'm part of something special!
I wanted to post some news I think everyone will be interested in (although I have one selfish reason not too but its just too exciting to keep to myself).
We had already planned a trip this August for a stay at the PO-FQ before deciding to go ahead with the DVC membership. I knew I wanted AKV to be our home resort but all the info. I could find said there wouldn't be any rooms completed before September, so I figured I was out of luck making our first stay with DVC at our new home (AKV). To my surprise my guide told me they were ahead of schedule on a small number of room renovations and there would be limited AKV accomodations available starting in July and I could call in mid-May to try to reserve one!
Has anyone else heard this? Also, any advice for a brand new member?
