Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Boulder Ridge and Copper Creek?
Both are at Wilderness Lodge, but Boulder Ridge has only studios (expiring 2042) at lower prices, while Copper Creek offers studios, 1-bedrooms, 2-bedrooms, and waterfront cabins (expiring 2068). Boulder Ridge is the original DVC section; Copper Creek is the newer addition.
Is Boulder Ridge a good value for DVC resale?
Yes — Boulder Ridge offers some of the lowest prices per point in DVC due to its 2042 expiration and studio-only inventory. If you primarily need studios and don't mind the shorter contract, it's an excellent budget option with boat access to Magic Kingdom.
When does Boulder Ridge expire?
Boulder Ridge contracts expire January 31, 2042.
