I love Riverside!!! This is our first time not staying there
We'll be at Pop next year. Unless a really good room discount opens up in the fall

Rack rates appear to be up . Now - as DVC members, we check these in the main Hotels to track our break even point for initial investment. Later? We will check the true, DISCOUNT rates. As always, the prices you see are what Disney would LIKE to get .
Just to shine a little reality on all this... our APR 2018 cost, per night, at BRV will be $110.10 per night per dues cost. Every time Rack goes UP? Our upfront cost goes down. It is rapidly approaching ZERO, far faster than we thought it would.
We will hit break even in 2018 ... FIVE years after buy in, in 2013. After APR 2018? We make out like bandits. This is sort of the "thing" with DVC.... you really save NOTHING until you "pay off" your initial cash investment .

Guess I have to wait until the end of the month for my 499 day time frame for early november 2018...
for trips ending on 31 December, 2018 - the earliest you can book is Saturday, August 19, 2017.
btw - if you need to figure out the 499 days before the end of your trip... here is a good calculator:

FYI - https://www.timeanddate.com/ is a great site too for date/time calculations.
Well, be prepared for more downtime! From the travel agent's site

Is it possible the system is down already? I'm looking at AKV - Jambo from August 3 - 11 and I don't see any availability at all. Or is this just going to be the case until the AKV DVC members have their 11 month window go past?
If you are trying to look at DVC in 2018, yes, you will need to consider the 11 month window.

So this is interesting (to me, at least). Looking at my preferred dates next August, I'm seeing Wilderness Lodge standard view at $348 per night, quite a bit less than Animal Kingdom Lodge standard view at $371 per night. I don't think I've ever seen that before. Animal Kingdom Lodge standard view has been the cheapest Deluxe resort room for as long as I can remember.
