    Anyone who knows this resort -- will I be happy with Unit 445?

    I don't believe Bonnet Creek assigns rooms with RCI.
    This doesn't seem like a BC room #.
    The room numbers have 4 digits.
    Did you book this thru Wyndham or RCI?

      Figures. Found the number with RCI mobile booked through RCI. So it's one of those non-numbers, huh?

        Maybe it's a unit number but it doesn't specify the building.
        Good thing is that if you check in early you can usually request and get a specific building.
        I've had good luck with this so far.
        I've only stayed in building 6 and I've been there several times.

          How do the room number run in building six
          Where would one that ends in 03 be located

          We stayed in a building that was located on
          the right side as you drive in with 3 numbers
          Will check my photos for exact unit number.

            On my ressie, I found room 849, and searched around online, but have no idea which building that would be in.
            Your "room assignment" also seems like a mystery.
            I hope its a good one!

              If I remember correctly I was in a room that ended in 02 and it was at the end of the hall and faced the lake head on.
              It was a great view. I think 01 was the room next door facing the lake also. I am not sure if 03 was facing the pool and lake or the parking lot. Sorry but I have a terrible memory.

                Is Bonnet Creek a 1 in 4, or 1 in 3?
                Is it nicer than OLCC, Vistana or HGVC Seaworld? Seems quite popular here. Thanks!

                  Not yet. Let's not give Wyndham any ideas.

                  I'm not sure about OLCC since I have never stayed there but I suspect it is nicer.

                  IMO Vistana's units are just as nice but the layout of the resort is more garden apartment style.
                  Vistana has no elevators so if you get a second floor then that's an issue for many.
                  Parking is right outside your door though at Vistana.
                  BC's location is better for Disney. Vistana better for the other theme parks.

                  HGVC Seaworld is also nice but the location again is better for SeaWorld and the other theme parks.

                  BC's big advantage is the location right on Disney grounds.
                  If not for that then it would be up there with the Marriotts.
                  It does have two nice lazy rivers which is something rare in timeshare resorts here in Orlando.
                  Everybody has a nice pool but not everyone has a lazy river.

                    Sounds pretty good Chris! I saw a HGVC 3brm in Dec '14 that we might like but no BC yet. Plenty of OLCC and Vistana too. What are the chances of getting a BC in Dec or Jan? Dp they usually have availability then on exchange?
                    We'd love another 'Houses at Summer Bay' but haven't seen one of those for a while, although I've only just started looking.

                      Bnoble posts the monthly Wyndhams..right now they are up to May/early June. Christmas/new Years week 51, 52 would be pricey TPUS wise and probably wouldmnot even make it into RCI (Easter never did for 2014) All the others weeks would be fine. I believe they are 2BR sleep 8 but check with Chris/Wyndham.

                        I haven't seen any 3 bedrooms in Bonnet Creek yet in RCI.
                        Not sure if anyone has gotten one with an ongoing exchange but I doubt it.
                        You may want to just rent from a mega-renter and get one of the 3 bedroom Presidential suites.
                        If you are going to come all that way to stay might as well get the best you can get.
                        The prices are quite reasonable.
                        I've even seen them on e- bay quite reasonably.
                        Here's one for $650 for 5 nights in a 3 bedroom Presidential for this year.

                        You can get the same sort of a deal from renting from an owner on wyndhamowners.org forum.

                          The regular 2 bedrooms sleep 6 or 8 using the couch bed.
                          They have a King and two doubles at least the ones I have seen.
                          Apparently according to the website it can sleep 6 also so not sure what the config would be for those.

                          The Presidential 2 bedrooms don't have the couch bed so only sleep 6.
                          Those I have stayed in several times.
                          I believe the two beds in the second bedroom are doubles also.
