Creator's Key Takeaways

The best purchase we've ever made, spoiler alert.

It's a scary purchase. It's a scary amount of money, but we're going to try and go into why why for us it's worth it.

We have been members since 2019. Yeah. Wow. That time has flown.

We got Wilderness Lodge at Christmas and yes, we own there, but we booked 4 months before, so we didn't have any advantage over that room.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Speak to a DVC guide to work out how many points you need.
✓Buy where you want to stay to get the 11-month booking advantage.
✓Consider buying direct for the minimum points and then topping up with resale contracts.
✓Set up monthly savings for annual dues to avoid surprises.
✓Use value resorts to extend stays if points don't stretch far enough.
