On hand for the opening were Walt Disney World Ambassador Stephen Lim and Senior Vice President of DVC, Guided Adventures & Expeditions, and Golden Oak Terri Schultz. A few of their closest friends were there too — sporting brand new outfits!

During the opening ceremony Schultz celebrated that this is the 15th DVC resort, and first one since 2004’s opening of Saratoga Springs that is a dedicated DVC resort.

  1. I was able to snag a reservation for mid June for a 2 bedroom preferred view and we are so excited! Surprised we were able to get a room as this isn’t one of our home resorts.
