Before going any further, I want to note that even though the new Cabins are considered part of the Disney Vacation Club Collection, just like all other DVC properties, all Guests are eligible to book them—DVC Members just get first dibs!
The all-new, upscale Cabins at Fort Wilderness feature an open layout, a large outdoor deck connected to the inside living area, and a sliding glass door, so you can still be outdoors while indoors!

The Cabins also boast TWO bathroom sinks, a separate bedroom, and a dedicated parking space.

When it comes to sleeping, Guests will have their choice of two queen beds—one of which is a plush Murphy bed—and bunks.
To say these are the ultimate in luxury camping is an understatement!

1. You’re Close to Prime Fishing
Even though you might be staying in the lap of luxury, you can still enjoy a fun fishing excursion during your “camping trip!”
When staying at a new Cabin at Fort Wilderness, you will have access to fishing guides who can take you and your family out on Bay Like to the “honey holes” so everyone is pretty much guaranteed to catch a fish – and some smiles! All levels are welcome!

2. You’ll Experience Glamping to the Max
After some time on the water or in the Parks, it’s essential to cool off and relax!
Once you return to your nicely appointed cabin, you can do so with all the comforts of home while enjoying everything nature has to offer – in air conditioning!

3. Modern Design with Rustic Touches
As mentioned, these new Cabins are the perfect way to be at one with nature with all the comforts at home and touches of Disney magic.
Guests will notice iconic Hidden Mickeys and some superfan easter eggs hidden throughout the design of the Cabin.

Suzanne Szak, Senior Interior Designer with Walt Disney Imagineering, said, “Much of the design aspect came from Tri-Circle-D Ranch, which has a more refined, woodsy feel. So, we still have the wood on the ceiling, floor, and furniture, but it’s a lighter wood, a more refined cut with the touch of black metal accents, which you’ll also see at Tri-Circle-D.”
Cesar Avila, Senior Manager, Marketing & Sales Strategy for Disney Vacation Club, stated, “It’s really about bringing many of the comforts of ‘home’ to the great outdoors.”

4. A Quick Trot to Tri-Circle-D Ranch
After a nice and refreshing break, it’s time to head over to the place where the Cabin’s inspiration comes from—the Tri-Circle-D Ranch!
Once you enter the barn, you will see modern-yet-rustic details, including softly colored lumber, metal accents, and state-of-the-art stables just around five years old.

You’ll also be able to get up close and personal with around 100 horses, including some you might see walking down Main Street, USA!
One of the stables’ hidden treasures is an exhibit that celebrates Walt’s love of horses, including the Dragon Calliope Circus Wagon, which was pulled by the horses in Disneyland!
You can even book a trail ride on one of the horses you’ll see in the stables!

5. Frolic in the Meadow and Beyond
Disney’s Fort Wilderness Lodge offers so many outdoor activities that you’d have to stay for weeks to enjoy them all!
At the Resort’s Meadow Trading Post, you can enjoy a bike or kayak rental, mining for gems, and archery.
If you want to take a quick dip, there’s the massive Meadow Pool located at the Resort. Insider Tip: You can see a water tower from the now-closed River Country on top of the water slide!

6. The Best Rootin’ Tootin’ Entertainment at Disney World is Close By
Did you know that Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort is home to these new DVC Cabins AND the iconic Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue?!
When you stay in one of these new Cabins, you’ll be a short golf cart ride from Pioneer Hall, which is home to one of the most popular experiences at Disney World. Insider Tip: Golf Carts are available to rent, but make sure to book early because supplies are limited!
During the Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue, audiences are invited to participate in what promises to be one of the rollickin’ shows East of the Mississippi!
Fort Wilderness also offers a lesser-known character experience, which is a hidden gem, in my opinion!

Chip ‘n’ Dale Campfire Sing-A-Long is held at Meadow Trading Post and allows you to meet and greet with the campground-clad Chip ‘n’ Dale while toasting up some tasty s’mores. Insider Tip: The experience is FREE, but the s’mores kits do cost extra!
