Ummmmmmmmmmmm - I think I shouldn't have started this thread when I was tired.

I meant Dec. 25, 2008 - Jan 1, 2009. I just forgot the 2008 after the Dec. 25th part. So I guess this year will be impossible, huh? Where should I tell her to look? I need a reputable DVC exchange site that maybe someone on here has used. I have never rented from anyone other than a MBer.

Last year they waited until November to book and wound up paying like a bazillion dollars for 2 bedrooms at the swan.

I can't say for certain but I think you are going to have a tough time getting in a DVC resort this Christmas. There may be some availability at SSR or OKW but I'm sure VWL, BCV, and BWV are booked. I saw a waiting list months ago on another site but didn't notice if SSR or OKW were on it.

Thanks, Steph. That's what I figured.

There are a couple of sites that have very active rent trade boards if you would like that information. There may be something available this late but it's a prime DVC time.
