From the WDW website:

From May 12 through May 21, 2025, Whispering Canyon Café will be closed for refurbishment. During this time, Guests can choose from a variety of other dining locations at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge, including Territory Lounge, Roaring Fork, Geyser Point Bar & Grill and Story Book Dining at Artist Point with Snow White.

What about the days starting June 27th?

I tried to get a reservation for the Whispering Canyon Cafe at Wilderness lodge but it does not offer any dates from June 27th on. The refurbishment is advertised from May 12th to 21st - and those dates are specifically blocked out. Starting June 27th there are simply not timeslots loaded. Any ideas what that means?

The WDW website still lists those dates for the closure. June 27th and following dates would be outside of the 60 day booking window for ADR's

Your resort arrival date in order to make an ADR for June 27th is April 28th.

We stay at WL and my booking window just opened today and includes all days until July 1st. Every other restaurant I can book. It is just that there are NO times available for Whispering Canyon Cafe:

It could be that Disney has not downloaded those dates yet. It may be they are making sure that the renovations are completed on time.

I first thought so too, but the dates from May 22 to June 26 directly after the renovation period can be booked.
I suspect a second renovation period or somebody forgot to open up the calendar for reservations.
