Resort Thread Disney's WILDERNESS LODGE

[Dave006]

I’m just wondering if we’ll be able to use the golf cart to go to the pool at the lodge

Just to add to the great feedback from @bookbabe626, no you can't take a Golf Cart from Ft. Wilderness and drive to the WL for any reason or anywhere beyond the Ft. Wilderness entrance.

We will be staying in a cabin at the campground in march. I cannot find a thread for this. Is the campground a completely separate resort? Or is it sort of all the same? I’m just wondering if we’ll be able to use the golf cart to go to the pool at the lodge

The campground is a completely separate resort. You cannot use the pool at Wilderness Lodge. The campground has its own pool.

Just checked in so beautiful! What do you think will we be able to see fireworks?

Yes the high fireworks should be just to the left of the Contemporary A-frame. But that one tall tree needs to be topped to improve your view....

This is scheduled to be all done by September or October right? Should all be gone by our December trip?

Also does anyone know if they’ve already done the exterior closer to the pool on the hotel side or is that next?

Not exactly there is no announced end date for the Exterior work on either side of the lodge.

You might be thinking of the room refurbishments for the CCV side of the lodge, and the Cabins. That is what does have a scheduled end date September 2025.

Thank you! We had the best view! Nothing like booking a standard view and getting this. WL might be our new favorite

Hoping we get this view! We booked a king with resort view and TP seems to show quite a few room with this view! Can’t wait!

Perhaps that is what I was thinking of. Does this exterior work seem to be going quickly? December is still (unfortunately) a long way off. But not really.

We will be there in November on the Wilderness Lodge side. Are they going to do that side?

The picture that @mrsap posted from FB is the on the lodge resort side with the scaffolding.

There is no schedule available as the scope of the current exterior work still remaining either in the Courtyard or on the outer U side of the lodge overlooking the Smoke house, CM parking, and the wood view / Cabins.
