Hey there, hi there, Arnold! You're as welcome as can be here at planDisney! Thanks for stopping by with such a great vacation planning question.
Copper Creek Villas & Cabins at Disney's Wilderness Lodge is one of my favorite Disney Vacation Club Resorts! With its immersive theming, gorgeous grounds on the picturesque Bay Lake, one of my favorite pools at Walt Disney World Resort, some of the best
dining options around, and location within a short, scenic boat ride to Magic Kingdom Park, this Resort really is the perfect home away from home right in the middle of the magic. I'm so excited for you and your family, Arnold, but as a
Disney Vacation Club Member who often travels with my large extended family, I understand the challenge of making dining reservations for a large party. So, let's get it sorted out for you!
Your booking window to make your
Advanced Dining Reservations opens online on the
My Disney Experience website or app as early as 5:45 a.m. EST 60 days before your arrival date. Since you are a Guest of a Disney Resort Hotel, you will be able to make your reservations for your entire length of stay up to ten days. Since making dining reservations for a party of ten can be challenging at most restaurants, I suggest breaking your party up into two tables of five or a six and four split at the same restaurant at the same or close times. Then, when you arrive at the restaurant, you can request that your party be seated together or near each other. While this request is not guaranteed, in my experience, the Cast Members are always willing to at least attempt to have us near each other. It certainly doesn't hurt to ask!
If you have any trouble making your reservations or would prefer to make your dining reservations over the phone, you can call (407) WDW-DINE or (407) 939-3463 to speak with a helpful Cast Member as soon as the phone lines open at 7:00 a.m. EST 60 days before your check-in date. Since you can start making your reservations online a whole hour earlier, I suggest trying to make some reservations yourself online and then calling when the phone lines open if you still need some assistance. Happy booking and bon appetit!
Arnold, one of my very favorite dining experiences is right at your Resort! I recommend snagging a reservation for
Story Book Dining at Artist Point with Snow White. I love the ambiance in the Enchanted Forest, the food is incredible, and the character interaction can't be beaten! Enjoy!
Arnold, I hope this was helpful, and I hope you and your family have the most magical and memorable vacation full of fun and delicious dining! Please stop by any time with any questions you may have along the way. You've got a friend in planDisney!
See ya real soon,
Mandy
