I was really confused on the DIS because some said that they will allow 5 in ANY 1 bedroom, but they only give bedding for 4. But I do like the idea of AK.

Thanks for your response. This is SOOOO new to me, and it is overwhelming looking at all the options and legalities, etc.
According to DVC the only place that allows 5 in a one bedroom is AKV however they do allow 5 at most DVC one bedrooms but that is always subject to change. So the answer is yes right now you can usually put 5 in any one bedroom but they will not bring cots or bedding for the 5th person. So you would have to bring your own sleeping bag, aerobed, etc. It is thought that as AKV nears completion and has more One bedrooms with the sleeper chair DVC may tighten up on that. It has also been speculated that as they remodel they may add the sleeper chairs to some of the other resorts but that is just speculation at this point. If you want point cost for other resorts I can get those for you. OKW is the least and the largest room size resort. BWV and BCV are the hardest to get because those are the smallest resort. SSR is pretty easy to get and a large resort.

And yes for renting most people rent M-Th and in fact DVC owners tend to do that also. Many owners do the split stay like you are talking about because it is so much more expensive point wise for the weekends.
