Yes - no tubes are currently provided and they must be less than 40”Thank you for the information. Does the lazy river require you to bring your own tubes?
We stayed last week and we were not charged any parking or resort fees. We were charged a refundable deposit of $150 - we are still waiting for the refund of the deposit - they said it shouldn’t come within 5-7 days of checkoutCan Anyone tell me if there are still no parking fees? Also, are there resort fees? I found on priceline Orlando Bonnet creek by Resortshare and it appears to be the same place. Anyone that can verify? The prices are a lot less.

When you rent a reservation from an owner or through a service that rents reservations for owners, there are no parking or resort fees.
Now when you rent through a business, like Priceline or ResortShare, or whatever, I supposed they could add some of those junk fees. WBC inventory can come from a lot of places.
You can probably beat this deal by renting from a Wyndham owner if you shop around.
I don't think so. They've been allowing guest certificates for a while now.We just rented a condo for Thanksgiving through VRBO. Is there still a chance it gets canceled on us due to limited capacity?
I don't think so. They've been allowing guest certificates for a while now.
You can find them at tugbbs.com, Redweek and ebay. Be aware that the timeshare rental market is uneasy now because of the pandemic, so make sure you have a good understanding about what will happen if you have to cancel or the resort cancels or anything else.Thank you for the response. Do you know of any websites where I can find Wyndham owners renting out their spots?
We were there last week Wed-Sat 8/18-8/22. It was not crowded at all. Most of the parking lot was completely empty. We stayed in Tower 3 - we parked in the first space in the first row every time we came back to the condo. I think there was one other condo occupied on our floor - we did not see another guest in Tower 3. There were people at the pools - we felt one was too crowded the first time we went so moved over to the main pool as it was easier to maintain distance in the larger pool. The pool at Tower 4 is closed for the NBA. The lakeside restaurant was open and we had a great lunch there. The restaurant by the main lobby was only open for breakfast and we never saw the Starbuck open, only the gift shop. We had a great experience.How crowded is WBC now? Is occupancy limited like Disney? Are the lakeside restaurant open?
Thanks for the info. I didn’t realize the NBA was staying there.we have ressie in November.We were there last week Wed-Sat 8/18-8/22. It was not crowded at all.

A heads up: Normally we rent through a friend of ours who is a Wyndham owner. In the current situation, though, I only want to book something that I have the option to cancel very close to the check in dates. I've been watching the official Extra Holidays by Wyndham site, and their prices dropped. They are offering 30% off when staying six nights or more and you can cancel up until 24 hours before check in. If anyone was thinking about traveling this fall but wants something flexible, check it out. I know we could get it cheaper from our friend, but the flexibility is worth the premium to us.
Thanks to all of the posters who have shared their recent experiences here. It's nice to hear how WBC is adapting from those who have first hand knowledge.
We are DVC members and I rented all our points. I just booked our first ever trip to Bonnet Creek for 11/1 to 11/8 in a 2 Bedroom all in for $1,200. And you can't beat the 24 hour cancellation policy.
The direct offer through Wyndham was too good to pass up. I am very excited to try a new resort.
Now I just need to figure out what is open for our trip.
