We bought in December of 2000 and our only regret is that we didn't do it sooner!

Tell your wife that there is MORE to DVC than Disney. (Oh my gosh....I can't believe I just said that!!)

With DVC, you can go so many places, including ski resorts, cruises, bed and breakfasts, etc. all over the US (and overseas) just by picking up the phone to DVC and they do the rest!

When we went to Keystone Resort in Colorado, they made it so easy...all I had to do was call the DVC 800#, tell them when and where, and within 24 hours they called me back and booked it!

For Non-Disney Resorts (aka "the conceirge collection"), DVC does charge a one time $75 fee, but well worth it in my opinion.

We stayed in late June of 2001 and had a BEAUTIFUL (Not Disney, but Disney quality) 2 bedroom condo for seven nights (4 adults, 2 kids) and it "cost" us 147 point.

So if you purchase into Saratoga Springs, for the next 50 years, you can enjoy a wonderful vacation EVERY Year.....Disney World or Not!!!
