The Skyliner is a very enjoyable way to travel to HS but not necessarily the fastest way to go. YC is really close to the boat dock, whereas it will take about 8 minutes to walk to the Skyliner from the YC.Is it faster to take the boat or the skyliner to HS from YC?

Good Saturday Morning from the YC!
Are you kidding me? Rats!I can’t believe I’ve missed all these posts from you, sitting at MCO, just checked out today been at YC since last Sunday, moved over from PB the week before at Universal, would have liked to say hello........
Are you kidding me? Rats!
Hope you had a great time!
Sklyliner has no impact on your walk. 20 minutes from YC/BC give or take 5 minutes depending on how fast you walk. If you head left towards the BW make sure you take the “shortcut” through the pool area to get to the HS path. Take a right, no shortcut needed. You’ll pick up the path just behind the Atlantic Dance Hall. Have fun!Thanks for the help with the HS timing. Walking does seem best and you don't have to wait for anything. When we were at YC last, the skyliner wasn't built yet. Just wondering, picturing where it was to be built, does it affect the walk from YC/BC to Epcot or it is still a short, straight walk?

When you are walking from YC to Epcot, the Skyliner passes above you. As you approach the IG entrance, the Skyliner station is to the left. It is on a slight incline. But you just walk straight to IG as before.Thanks for the help with the HS timing. Walking does seem best and you don't have to wait for anything.

The "shortcut" through the BW; take a left just past the BW green and before the Screen Door store, take your first right past Wyland Galleries, you'll go by the gym and arcade on your left. The pool will be in front of you and you'll want to stay left on the path. You'll come right into the walkway to HS. You can't miss it, otherwise you'll be in the canal.the “shortcut” through the pool area to get to the HS path. Take a right, no shortcut needed.

Not sure where this shortcut is? does it save time or distance? TIA
I just booked two spontaneous trips for my girls birthdays, after my bad YC stay in August I was given two free nights so why not. Staying at BCV (first time) Feb. 11-14, and YC March 12-14.
We just booked a stay at the BC in Early June for my Crew of 5. Celebrating my oldest graduating from College, my middle graduating from HS. Youngest is 15, so its like a 5 adult trip. We have a Q-Q-Daybed/Sofa reserved, hoping (*fingers crossed) that a nice upgrade might be available. Been to WDW many times both off and on property. Looking forward to our first time at BC!
I'm late getting to this thread! I have 4 nights booked at the YC for February - 2/6 - 2/10 - a girls only trip with my best friend . Stayed at the Beach Club many years ago with the family, but this is my first stay at the Yacht. Really looking forward to the trip. I've been fortunate to have several trips on my AP this year, even with the closure, but I think this will be the last for a while.
Thanks for all the great info!!
I must have failed to provide our October dates: 7-15, 2021 - BCV. Sadly, our May trip will be at BWV. . .tried for BCV, but DH wants his turn at his favorite. I like BWV, but the shower/toilet area in the studios is so dark and small.
We just booked a studio at Beach Club Villas for the week of memorial day. Any word if when the hotel opens more dining offerings will open? Cape May? Yatchsmans? I read the hotel opens the 30th and we check into the Villa side on the 30th.
A few pix while I wait stand by Ale & Compass.
AK in the morning then transfer to CR . I’ll post pix there if interested .
YC has been great for park hopping !

Hopefully we will know in the coming months about whether resort restaurants will start reopening.
These are awesome!
If you don't mind, I'll add a couple of these to the first page posts.
I call that seating area with the two chairs "Mark's Corner" My husband sat there and caught up on work emails while I was taking one last dip at SAB on our departure day.
The shortcut is shorter for people staying at the Beach Club villas or the BC resort rooms that are closest to Epcot. It is not shorter for people staying at the Yacht Club.the “shortcut” through the pool area to get to the HS path. Take a right, no shortcut needed.

If you are staying at the Yacht Club then just turn right, toward the Dolphin, cross the bridge between YC and Boardwalk, then follow the sidewalk that goes along the waterway. That is the shortest route.
If you are staying at the BCV, exit the villas building and take the sidewalk that goes between the Beach Club and Epxot. You will come out near the bridge between Boardwalk and BC. Head toward the Boardwalk and when you get to the grassy area in front of Wylands Gallery, turn left and go through opening that leads to the main pool. Follow the sidewalk to the left around the pool and you will see the walkway to Hollywood Studios. This path is a little shorter for guests at that end of the BC resort. It is also the best way to go if you are coming from the Epcot International Gateway.
