Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party vs Jollywood Nights

We went to both last Christmas - Went to Jollywood Nights with two other adults and my wife and I went alone to the MVMCP. I would recommend Jollywood over MVMCP based on our personal preference. I didn't have any expectations beyond a video I watched @ DVCFAN so we went in knowing there would be food and some fun. For

Hoop De Doo

Hoop De Doo has become a Hoop De Must - We brought it up with the kids for the upcoming October trip and all four don't want to miss it. We took our friends last December to Hoop De Doo and they all enjoyed it (want to go back for our Bonus trip this year!). I haven't met a person that doesn't love it after going. And,

What's the benefit to owning multiple home resorts?

Quick Follow up - We ended up going with SSR as a way to bridge our points. Since we want to eventually go to all the resorts this definitely seemed to be the more economical way. So far we've been able to book Poly, Vero, SSR, BLT, AKL, BRV. We missed out on a BWV stay that came up during our search but were able to g

Accumulating points for long retirement stays?

We live near Cotino and I agree that it's giving you some of the Disney magic but, for us, it doesn't provide enough of the magic. The restaurant, the Incredibles house, and some of the layouts are pretty cool but the cost for the use of the services and the walking paths/parks just feels out of sync. I would have expe

We're originally from Texas as well! My parents moved me out to California in '88 so we moved from a humid heat to a dry heat and now vacation in humidity yet again. ;) Our resale contract just got placed into our account so my wife went to town getting the rest of the year planned. October - 2 nights @ Vero Beach in h

Timeline on getting points?

The one we got for our friends closed yesterday. We went out to celebrate and plan for the upcoming trip. ;) I was surprised after it said it could take 6 weeks. I've never been to Boardwalk but it sure looks like a great time being able to just walk right into the park.

Timeline on getting points?

Just to give an update - we got our emails from the title company May 19th and a May 22nd confirmation on deed being recorded. We received our points today - May 26th. Pretty quick turn around. We're currently waiting to hear back from one of my friends that bought a contract for. It closed a couple days before ours an

Upcoming 2026 Trips (Disney and Other)

Hmm.... we have an October Poly trip which will be the first time as a family with all the kids (we went in December with friends and that was our welcome home). We are tentatively planning a December trip but waiting on ROFR on our new contract.

Have you or would you ever work for Disney?

I would work for them if I could just transition from being a home builder here in California to building a new Golden Oaks on Disney property. ;) I've also talked to my daughters about trying to go into the program. My oldest is an artist and wants to do voice acting. I think it would be good experience for her but @
