It appears, from the point chart, that CC will take its first guests on July 17.
For trivia honors, can anyone tell me (without looking it up! ) what significance July 17 plays in Disney history?

How do the point for the cabins compare to those of the bungalows? I'm sure it's $$$ for even just one night.

The cabins are not as expensive as the Poly Bungalows. Random night: Cabin 87 points, Bungalow 115 points.
Cabins are 2.5 times the rate for a 2 BR and come within 10 points of the cost of a Grand Villa.

More details announced today for Copper Creek Villa's & Cabins:

... The resort, which is currently under construction, also has a scheduled opening date: July 17. Once open, Copper Creek Villas & Cabins will be the 14th Disney Vacation Club development and the second at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge.
Copper Creek Villas & Cabins offers Disney Vacation Club Members and guests a new frontier for magical vacations where the comforts of home and the wonders of the wilderness are deeply rooted in the magic of Disney. Inspired by the legendary mining and railroad history of the Pacific Northwest, Members and guests will discover rustically elegant accommodations, where cozy touches mix with modern designs to create a tranquil retreat.
Offering one of the widest ranges of accommodations found at Walt Disney World Resort, Copper Creek Villas & Cabins will feature 184 modern, nature-inspired vacation homes, including Deluxe Studios, one- and two-bedroom Villas, and even three-bedroom Grand Villas, which sleep up to 12.
The new resort will also include 26 all-new luxurious waterfront cabins. Sleeping up to eight and featuring two bedrooms, two baths and large dining and living room spaces, the cabins’ floor-to-ceiling windows, exposed wooden beams and interior-exterior stone-hearth fireplace bring the beauty of the outdoors in, and offer plenty of room for families. After a long day of fun at the nearby theme parks, guests can return to their porch and relax in the built-in hot tub. Some even enjoy a view of the Electrical Water Pageant on Bay Lake!
Additional developments at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge include the recently opened Geyser Point Bar & Grill, an open-air lounge overlooking Bay Lake. The resort’s quick-service restaurant, Roaring Fork is also undergoing refurbishments and is scheduled to reopen later this year with a refreshed look and expanded outdoor seating. Boulder Ridge Cove pool, a modern-day swimmin’ hole, will also open this summer.
Those in search of extra pampering will want to stop by the all-new Salon by the Springs for poolside manicures, pedicures and hair services scheduled to open this summer.

First I've heard about this, rather odd location IMO.
UPDATE: Just read Salon by the Springs will be located in the former Trout Pass Bar building

A formal description of the new resort and thematic backstory have been announced:

Disney’s Wilderness Lodge pays tribute to the grand 19th century vacation lodges established along the First Transcontinental Railroad through the Pacific Northwest, while Boulder Ridge Villas draw inspiration from the residential communities that grew along those rails.
Copper Creek Villas & Cabins pick up that story decades later, as more Americans opted to travel by car and plane. Unwilling to allow their communities to disappear with the railroad, Westerners resourcefully turned those “rails into trails,” repurposing industrial buildings, rock quarries and more as they reimagined spaces to welcome new generations of explorers.
That spirit of reinvention and renewal is evident throughout the latest additions to Disney’s Wilderness Lodge, from railroad-depot-turned-waterfront-restaurant Geyser Point Bar & Grill (now open) to abandoned-quarry-turned-pool-area Boulder Ridge Cove (scheduled to open this summer). Copper Creek Villas themselves repurpose everything from salvaged steel to railroad spikes as part of the transformation and refinement of former hotel rooms – reimagined as Deluxe Studios, one-bedroom villas, two-bedroom villas and three-bedroom Grand Villas, while rustically elegant Cascade Cabins re-imagine vacated lakeshore homes said to have once housed the railway company’s supervisors, site managers and VIPs.

That's an interesting (?) backstory, but historically inaccurate. The Transcontinental Railroad didn't come anywhere near the Pacific Northwest. Stretching things greatly to call Sacramento and the Sierra Nevada, the "Pacific Northwest". I noticed that they're still using "Cascade" as a naming element, which IS correctly a part of the PNW.
Oh well, Disney has always had a tendency to take great liberties with history. At least they got the original Wilderness Lodge right, since it is authentically inspired by and modelled after Timberline Lodge - just 50 miles east of Portland.

Well, with the new bar and grill, the Trout Pass Bar really wasn't needed. While I enjoyed that pool bar (Salmon Run drink!), that bar area wasn't large enough to serve 2 pool areas.
