jjbescher 17 Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 DVCNews just posted this. Do not know if this means that the DVC is coming back into the picture or just found again. http://dvcnews.com/index.php/resorts/other--proposed-resorts/2480-ft-wilderness-dvc-plans-leaked jon Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As far as I know, they're the first drawings that have been leaked to the public. This is a big deal. Up to now, we didn't have any specifics showing what they were planning. Now we do. I don't take credit for leaking them. But I do take credit for being the first to post a link to them on a Discussion Board.

AC in A2......Aaron 693 Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 I cannot be certain of anything except my love for my family, country, and God and my hatred for islamic terrorists.That being said I know news organizations troll other news organization websites for news so it is not out of the realm of possibility for disney news sites to do the same thing. How many times have me and Mo reposted other sites stories here? I am not saying they didnt find the tweets on their own but they could have been pointed in the right dirction by TCD also.It will have to remain a big mystery like who really killed Kennedy or the age old question of why the original Battlestar Gallactica was cancelled.

They were out a couple of years ago. This is sad. I guess one of us will need to give Gail a call and suggest that she get you to the doctor for an adjustment of your meds and to have your eyes checked. These drawings were not "out a couple of years ago." This is the first time that any drawings have surfaced showing the details that these drawings contain- the footprint of the project, the height of the buildings, details about the pools, etc. None of that has been seen before. It's interesting that the Twitter site has now taken the drawings down. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I know what we are, and am happy with it, but I also realize that we are tiny when compared to other WDW sites. You forget the power of social media. Remember I said I also posted a link to this thread on the FF.net FB account? Well I know for a fact that info was picked up and shared quickly by several others. And as in the old shampoo commercials, when it comes to social media, they tell 2 friends, and they tell 2 friends, and so on... I've been involved in another situation this week to do with rescue where I saw posts from a single person literally circle the globe and reach thousands of people in the span of 36 hours. I'm not saying that means for sure that other websites and discussion boards got their information here first. But I would not discount that as a possibility. :) It will have to remain a big mystery like who really killed Kennedy or the age old question of why the original Battlestar Gallactica was cancelled. ... and bigfoot. And why WAS the original Battlestar Gallactica cancelled? I loved that show.

DaveInTN 3,247 Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 That's an interesting article. And it raises some thoughts....rather than build the Fort DVC, they could convert the entire Wilderness Lodge into DVC, including those lakefront cabins, expanded pool and lazy river, etc. If the occupancy issues at Deluxe resorts mentioned in the article is true, taking those 728 rooms offline would seem to help by pushing those guests to other WDW Deluxe properties. They could also build amenities in the dead space running from the Lodge to River Country if they wanted to integrate the resorts further....maybe even dust off the old Buffalo Junction plans. That gets rid of the RC eyesore without plunking down a monstrous resort on the Fort's beach. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
arthuruscg 34 Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 "Borrowing another page from the Polynesian playbook, the expanded Wilderness Lodge DVC will also feature prestigious bungalow-style accommodations. Keeping with the wilderness theme, Disney plans to build stand-alone cabins along the beach bordering Bay Lake. The cabins will sleep 8-9 guests and feature high end amenities like a private fire pit and hot tub." I could see Disney filling in the horse shoe shaped area between WL and RC with the bungalows and converting some of RC area to high end camper area. A few pad sites for when musicians are visiting/ performing and people that have RVs that don't fit under the check in awnings. I am thinking a 3 star camper area with CM that come and hock up the sewage line and dump the tanks for you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
