AFAIK, the resort does not publish a resort wide schedule. Each of the 7 owners associations manages its own reserve budget and schedules refurbishment based on lifecycle. Each has its own newsletter where they announce the annual plans, so it would be hard to see them all.
Was trying to pull up the latest newsletter for our section (Courts), but the most recent one online is Spring 2019. Can't locate the latest email, but I do know that Courts was due for a full 'soft surface' (furniture, draperies, etc) and appliance refresh for this year IIRC. This is one step down from a full refurb IMO.

As far as I know, all of Lakes, Fountains I and Fountains II have been refurbished. Like @bankr63 indicated, not sure when the other phases may be in line for an update.

I am not sure they show Cascades specific villa photos on Vistana.com. Here is a video I made last year of the two bedroom villa in Cascades that we stayed in. This is the latest as no updates have been made since this was recorded.

Thanks - the website photos match your video. I did reach out to the resort and Falls will be renovated in winter and Cascades will be renovated next fall.
