Doing cabins at FW for first time next week. Anything special I should remember to pack that wouldn't normally be on the list for another resort?

Pool towels

If you're renting a golf cart, take something fun to put on it to help you spot it among the many other golf carts. We wish we had done this. The first time we stayed in the cabins we didn't rent one. The second time we did. It was a game changer!

Decorations! People go nuts. Plus if you have kids, bring stockings to hang and something to hang them from. People will put gifts in them. Bring small goodies to give out (not food) to join in.

FW doesn't have towels at the pool?

Is there a way to practice making LLs before your window opens up?
57 min ago by
No, but it's really pretty simple. If you ever booked FastPasses back in the day, it works similarly.

OK thanks. I miss fast passes!

First Christmas Trip Report Day 2: This was our MVMCP day. So what to do before? We got out of bed and did a BODi Lava work out, then breakfast at BW Deli. Rack of us got the Everything bagel egg sandwich. Then we got on skyliner to The Riviera.

We, too, love the Christmas party and parade best! Laughing at the detail that the red velvet cookie changed locations. Good sleuthing. Sounds perfect, esp sleeping in today!

Don't miss Voices of Liberty. Id prioritize that when you enter the park. Brought tears to my eyes because songs so beautiful at the holidays. Packed crowd too.

Thanks for the tip, @Jenny!

12 - Good Morning! This trip is really sneaking up on me with Christmas & visiting family in Canada right before. I'd normally be obsessed 12 days out, but I can't afford to be this time, LOL. Here's hoping it's extra magical for that reason!

Can I wait to buy LL for EPCOT until we are in the Park & see actual CL ? Wait times look doable for everything except Remy we will RD and do first. Tue August 11
9:50am on 12/17/25 by
I would never wait - that's the problem with LL - if yo wait the good stuff will be gone.
7:20pm on 12/17/25 by
It is always better to do LL. If savings is a priority skip TS.

If I'm doing a full day @ EP, RD to FW, no PH, I'm probably not getting LL for EP. I think it's very doable on a mid-level crowd day. And I do like how it allows me to be off my phone more and enjoy park.

Trying to make a priority list for PP/ILL/MP Do you book all one day at a time or by pass type or by park? We have park hoppers and are planning on a combo across parks and I am trying to organize my wish list the best way possible.
9:03am by
You can book LLMP and LLSP for one day in the same transaction, if the party is the same for both. LLPP will need to be done separately.
41 min ago by
I book a day at a time. Can book both Mo and single all in same transaction. But each day is a separate transaction.

Ok. I've got down the split stay indecision. Usually stay at Swan. Considering 3 nights Pop then 3 nights Bay Lake Tower. Does that make any sense?? I have stayed at Pop once. It was ok. My DD15 (8 at the time) liked it. Just me and DD15 ...

And I know I heard that name Snakes before. Snakes? Snakes, Snakes. I don't know no Snakes.
12:28am by
Yep black snakes. Saw them near pool a couple of times then one ended up in water. We loved that the CMs best method of dealing with it was to use a litter picker & a pool towel. Saw them at Y&Y QS under the tables too at AK.
1:54am by
Agree, Split stays are a mess. BW area is my fav.

Anyone have insight on how often the DVC booking site updates? The entire month of Nov is available except the one Wednesday I want to check in for 4 nights.....
8:30am on 12/18/25 by
It does sound like walking. Sorry you are experiencing that. It really does mess things up.
9:13am by
If it is walking, then it will probably open up. Because people walking ressies don't want your date. To set a waitlist, just try booking for the unavailable nights only. The waitlist will be an option.
9:27am by
Many owners are walking all the way through to December. Booking CCV is a full time job anywhere near the holidays.

Is BG1 working in the parks? Asking b/c I kept geting Network Errors this morning while trying to modify LLs.
8:06am on 12/18/25 by
I only had trouble modifying an existing LL in BG1. No problem booking new one, either at a drop or just after tapping in and using a LL.
7:37am by
Appreciate the replies!
7:53am by
I helped my friend this week for her park days and BG1 worked on the first try almost all the time. Got a couple of network errors but just backed out and went back in and generally that got me through. Huge thanks to Joel!
