The Meadow Swimmin’ Pool Is Getting a Major Expansion
With Stormalong Bay now open, Disney is focusing on a different resort pool.
At Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground, Disney plans to expand the Meadow Swimmin’ Pool area to “make room for even more fun and relaxation.”

The new project will create a brand-new zero-entry pool and deck area alongside the existing pool—this will double the area’s size! Additionally, there are plans to add a new tennis court and two pickleball courts.
