Yeah! Now have DVC at GC

Already DVC members at Saratoga Springs Resort but have now got additional contract at Grand Californian over at DL - which we have fallen in love with. The units are all in Arts & Crafts style. Really overjoyed about it.

Congratulations!

I have heard it can be very hard to get into this so a home booking advantage will be very handy for you.

Brilliant Geoff, really pleased for you. I must admit I skim read the title and thought you were talking about GF and shocked as I hadn't heard about them going on sale yet lol.

Fantastic - does that mean you're not first in the queue now for the new GF resort then?

Congratulations.

We are staying there in early August. I was amazed that we got a 1-bed at 7 months as I had heard that you really need the home advantage as there are so few units. I am glad you fell in love with it as it makes me even more excited to go!

We were thinking GF but after our stay at GC in February we were sold on it. Had to wait 5 months to get the opening though. Best of both coasts now! (Same use year as our SSR too!)

If you are lucky as we were you'll get a balcony which looks right into the DCA park. You can watch World of Color from the comfort of your unit with a glass of wine in hand.
