    August Crowd Levels?

    We go the last week of Aug..this year from the 20th to the 27th...the main reason is because schools in the south go back to school that week, so needless to say the crowds are great! Not empty, but so enjoyable, you can actually see around you as you walk in the parks. The next reason is...

    Dining ideas for Arrival Day

    I will be arriving at the Wilderness Lodge on Aug 20 at around 3:30....not sure of our plans for the first day, but I was thinking that maybe we would stay on grounds for a while, hop on the boat and go around the MK area. I would like some suggestions on where to do our first dinner (FREE...

    Upgrade??

    Did anyone else stay in a standard view room? If so what exactly is the view? I hate to pay but then I think that since I am staying in a beautiful resort, why be stuck with looking at something not Disney-like!

    Upgrade??

    I have reservations for a standard room at Wilderness Lodge in August. Is there a "standard" view that is good? Or should I upgrade? I do not want to spend too much more, in fact, I even wondered if when I get there that they would give me better view room. That happened to me this year at the...

    How do you get over the post-trip letdown?

    I never get over it and just plan, plan, plan and obsess a little too much! I read up on EVERYTHING and keep reading these forums everyday. I think thats what happens when you are a true Disney fan!:hammer:

    Wilderness Lodge Advice

    Great advice everyone thank you so much. The one thing I am confused about still is the layout of the rooms. I paid for a standard and hope to get a free upgrade (I did last year at the Coronado Springs) But in case I am stuck with a standard room, are there overlooking the main lobby? Or close...

    Wilderness Lodge Advice

    That sounds like good advice about the buses, but I heard that the buses are good there. I hope that it is pretty convenient because last year when we went we stayed at Coronado Springs and bus service was excellent

    Wilderness Lodge Advice

    I just book my first August 2011 vacation at the Wilderness Lodge with free dining! I would love to get some advice about some little tidbits of inside info about the Lodge since it is our first time staying there. 1) Where do the boats take you? Magic Kingdom and Contempo? TTC? 2) What are...

    POP or Coronado?

    I would absolutely stay at CS...stayed there last year with my husband and son and it was much more "grown up" The grounds are beautiful for a romantic honeymoon walk at night and the pool is the best...even though there were some families, it was not over run by kids~which was nice and made it...

    Wilderness Lodge or Poly?

    WOW! I am really surprised by the majority of great reviews for the WL. I really wasn't expecting that many great things! I liked the feel of the place too when I ate at the Whispering Canyon. It was really beautiful and also the boat ride back to the MK for late hours was really nice. How...

    Free Dining with Split Resort Stay?

    Does Free Dining come with 4 nights at one deluxe resort and then 3 nights at another deluxe resort? I was wondering if you had to stay in one resort for your entire stay and still get the free dining the entire time? I was thinking of staying 4 nites at WL and 3 nights at Poly ...would I be...
