Wilderness Lodge

[luvpalmtrees]

Disney just released up to 30% discounts off on Deluxe resorts for the summer. We currently have reservations at Pop but with this discount we are thinking of WL. We would like ideas on the best standard room locations to request. I know this is only a request and they are not guaranteed. We've been lucky though, since 2006 we have gotten our room requests at Pop and CBR. Also, how is the food court? We've visited and ate at Whispering Canyon a couple of times and really like this resort!! Any info would be appreciated! Thanks!

WL is a fabulous resort . We love the pool, being able to take the boat to MK to great, and Roaring Forks is great for quick CS meals . I can't really help with room locations, but hopefully someone will come along with some suggestions . Have a great trip.......you will love the WL .

Wilderness Lodge is the best! I like the top floor rooms facing the MK. You may be able to see the fireworks.

Besides Artist Point, and Whispering Canyon you can get quick service at Roaring Fork Snack Bar. You can get snacks at the Territory Lounge to.

The best is the boat ride to MK.

is there a place at WL where you can watch the fireworks at MK?

No place at WL to view the MK fireworks. My understanding is there are some rooms (standard I think) that you are able to catch a glimpse of some of the fireworks that go really high. If you check out the WL photo threads it is mentioned by some guests that they could see some.

FYI I think there is only a 25% discount at WL and AKL.

We were in room 6087 last year, standard view. The view is the side parking lot and there was a tall tree in front. However, you could see the MK fireworks very easily.

We love the counter service there--Roaring Forks. It is one of our favorites on property.

I too like the boat ride. I have never stayed here, but it would be great to see the fireworks from here. At OKW you can hear the fireworks but rarely see anything. Otherwise OKW is a great place.

Yes, I know, that's why I said, up to 30%. The villas, I believe are 30%. I think we are going to stay with POP. I was hoping for a bigger discount for deluxes like in past years or discounts on moderates. We've stayed at CBR the past couple of years with great disounts. WL is about $1,200 more then POP. We are going for 13 ngts. We have a AAA discount with POP.
