Don't buy into DVC to stay at non-DVC resorts. The rates per night are MUCH higher point wise, plus there is that $#@% reservation fee. If you stay only 1 or 2 nights you are paying rack rate even just considering the annual dues cost. That said, I've done it before it's SLIGHTLY cheaper, and will do it again I'm sure, but it's NOT your best deal being a DVC member.
You can pay cash for reservations and get a discount which may be a better deal.
Email me and I'll send you an acrobat file of the points chart for WDW non DVC resorts if you'd like.
If you are seriouosly considering buying, there are great incentive discounts available now (up to $16 off!) but I'm not sure how much longer they will be offered.
