The hard goods refurbishment is reportedly well underway, with the fifth floor completed already. (Goodbye to the stencils/wallpaper border, white appliances and laminate countertops, among other things!)
Has anyone else stayed in a refurbed villa at WL yet? If you have, I'd love to see some more pictures, especially of the 1 and 2-bedroom villas. We'll be arriving May 4th for our first-ever stay at Wilderness Lodge and I'm hoping that our 2-bedroom villa will be a refurbished one.
EDIT: After more carefully reading the DVCnews article, it appears that the current timeline has all of the villas being renovated by the end of March, so it looks like getting a renovated unit in May is virtually guaranteed.

Here's the before-and-after of the kitchen:
And here is the before-and-after comparison of (1) the living room; (2) master bedroom; (2) studio that was evidently shown at the annual DVC meeting (again, from DVCnews.com). Does anyone else think it's weird that they used the "before" pic of an accessible living room (sans breakfast bar), and an "after" pick of a standard one? In this context you'd think they'd have wanted a perfect apples-to-apples comparison!:
