Of my three different time frames I am thinking of going. There is a slight price difference in each. Is it the lower the price the lower the busiest or the other way around?

Thanks everyone

Sort of. Pricing is according to "season" and dates for each "season" may change from year to year. The busier a season is, the more you are likely to pay for accommodations during that season.

More information on pricing and seasons can be found here. (http://intercot.com/resorts/disney/rates/default.asp)

Linda explained it well, though with today's economic times some of the "value" seasons are actually busier as more people go during that time to save money.

Supply and Demand. There's less supply in the summer and the holidays, so the price goes up. If the price stayed the same during the school times, no one would ever show up. So they drop the price and people start showing up. It's supply-side economics, and it works wherever it's tried.
