BUENA VISTA, Fla., July 1, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Today, Disney Vacation Club celebrated the opening

Wilderness Resort – A Disney Vacation Club Resort. Nestled in the
woodlands of the Walt Disney World Resort, the cabins are a
relaxing retreat where guests of all ages can enjoy many of the
comforts of home blended with the joys of staying in the great
outdoors.
"The Cabins at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort are nestled right
in the heart of such a beloved resort and will be the perfect place
for our Disney Vacation Club Members to create new
vacation memories," said Bill
Diercksen, senior vice president and general manager, Disney

entertainment moment inspired by the Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical

The Cabins at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort will continue to

350 new cabins. The cabins are part of a collection of improvement
projects underway at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort &
Campground to enhance the overall guest experience.
Inside The Cabins at Disney's Fort Wilderness
Resort
Walt Disney Imagineers have drawn inspiration from
the cabins' peaceful surroundings, infusing a touch of Disney
whimsy to create unique accommodations dedicated to preserving the
resort's heritage.
Floor to ceiling glass windows bring the beauty of the outdoors
into each cabin, while charming original artwork adorns the
interior. Each cabin features nods to the resort's early days as
well some familiar faces, including Mickey
Mouse, Pluto and the dynamic chipmunk duo, Chip and
Dale.
Each one-bedroom cabin comfortably sleeps up to six guests and
includes a main bedroom, bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, living
area, dining area and outdoor patio. Elevated just-like-home
comforts make each stay as one-of-a-kind as it gets. Dog-friendly
cabins are also available for those looking to bring along their
furry friend.
In addition to offering experiences and features that Members
expect from Disney Vacation Club, the cabins were built with an eye
toward sustainability in support of The Walt Disney Company's
environmental goals. Through an innovative process developed in
collaboration with two Florida
businesses, each cabin was produced with less than one percent
metal waste and was constructed in a way that preserved the natural
beauty of the resort's wilderness. Additionally, each cabin is
equipped with an on-site electric vehicle charging station.
