The Copper Creek Villas at Wilderness Lodge are one step closer to being sold by Disney Vacation Club, as Walt Disney World has filed the master declaration for the condo association. In addition to that, we have some new construction photos of the waterfront cabins. While this master declaration does not include a precise point
The Villas at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa are a hotel and Disney Vacation Club property adjacent to Walt Disney World’s flagship hotel.
