So glad we sold the MH and now we cruise.

Thanks for the current pics, @tidefan.

The monstrosity grows so close behind Trails End.

The cabins take the view from us on our Clementine's Beach.

And the new Zero-Entry pool (last pic) construction is meant to make us feel grateful (when they take away the very MEADOW the Meadow Pool/Trading Post area complex is named for). My heart hurts for all the kid fun and games I've seen in the decades on that open patch of grass.

Again thanks for the pics but this is another proof that the people making decisions have no idea was is valuable to the Fort and Fort guest (and what isn't) - not that they give a rat's rear end. Put any of us campers in charge and we could drop a new inconsequential Disney IP DVC/resort nearby (not with a dumpster view of TE).. And expand the pool options (but not pave over the open Meadow).

And not kill the goose that laid the gold egg. As Disney is (un)knowingly is trying to do.

I saw this kind of blind decision making in my own company before I retired. And that company is now in a slow tailspin. But hey, Helen Keller and me saw it coming.

Yep. Ed hit the nail on the head. It’s not that they’re building a DVC/Cash resort, it’s where they have decided to put it that’s the problem.

Full disclosure. We own DVC and have loved being able to stay at the Cabins. We love the vibe of the Fort. I do not like the monstrosity at all…. I mean, you don’t exactly get rustic western vibes when you look over Pioneer hall and there’s a tower that looks like it could have been built by Marriott…
