The short version is that I'm wondering just how far in advance 2-bedroom units book up during mid-to-late October. OKW and SSR are fine with us. Can we book inside the 7-month window and still be OK?
Long version:
We're in the early stages of planning a group trip in October 2018 and are leaning toward renting DVC points. (Otherwise we'd prob stay at POR or POFQ) The makeup of the group is very much in flux, so we might only need one 2-bedroom unit, but it's also possible we'd need a few 2-bedroom units, perhaps even with a Studio or two thrown in. While Boardwalk or Beach Club would be ideal, I realize that's a pipe dream. OKW or SSR are fine with me. (I've stayed in SSR twice before)
Knowing that Food & Wine is a big DVC draw across all resorts, can anyone give me a rough idea of how far out it starts to get tricky to get 7 or 8 consecutive nights in a 2-bedroom unit? My current gameplan is to start rounding people up to plan the trip in January (so 9 months out). Does that sound feasible? I'd hate to try and get so many people to commit to the trip all the way at 11 months... (Or even attempt to try and convince some people in the group that that's actually a necessity sometimes)
