Disney's Wilderness Lodge

This is the morning of our last day at Wilderness Lodge and it has been absolutely great. This is the third time we have had a two week stay at Wilderness Lodge so what more can I say! The room was perfect thoroughly cleaned every day and most days the room was serviced in good time. We had a lovely courtyard view. The pools are lovely, we went in both but strangely preferred the main pool, as the life guards that are present kept their eye on families with young children so adults were not constantly jumped in on unlike Boulder Ridge pool. The only other negative would be the saving of sun beds/pool furniture. At times, the pool was quite quiet but almost all pool furniture had towels or random personal items which had been left on purpose. The entertainment at the main pool was fun for all so well done. We ate at the Geyser Bar and the Roaring Fork; also enjoyed drinks in the Territory Lounge and these were good. My only suggestion is the Geyser Bar could do with a bit of a clean. The tables and floor area need attention. Especially the floor near the bar. Cast members were great!! Everyone we had contact with was so friendly, professional and hard working. Thank you!!! The location of the Resort is perfect for us. We enjoy eating and having a drink at the monorail resorts so love to take the boat. Especially now the Contemporary Resort boat is back. Also perfect for Magic Kingdom. We had a car but when we did use the buses they all arrived in very good time with very minimal wait. When you arrive at the Lodge the look and feel of the whole place is breathtaking! We love it! Also the smell when you enter is so good. All in all I would absolutely recommend it.

Absolutely incredible, best hotel we have stayed in at Disney, the restaurant may not be to everybody’s taste, however, the experience makes up for this. Highly recommend club level - 100% worth the extra cost. A short boat ride away from magic kingdom and a bus ride to the other parks. Beautiful hotel, amazing club perks, overall wonderful.

We went for another week at the lodge. We love this hotel and we stopped counting how many times we’ve been there. For the next 2 years however we will have to find something else. There is outside maintenance work for the next 2 years and Disney occupies even rooms where you can’t use the balcony. Close the door and curtain for privacy is what Disney states in a letter in the room. Really? We don’t mind hearing or seeing some maintenance work and understand the need but after 2 full days having a painter and other maintenance staff at our balcony we asked to be moved. Special thank you to Arlene of the front desk who handled this professionally and turned our disappointed first half of the week into a magical 2nd half of the week. We didn’t see her anymore, but thank you Arlene! The solution is simple: don’t rent out the rooms that are on the outside maintenance schedule that goes week by week.

Currently staying at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge, or should that be Disney’s Construction Site! Heavy machinery and men outside my balcony door every weekday for the past week, apparently painting the building. Not sure why this needs to happen during peak season but it is. The front desk don’t know how long the building works will take, they’ve offered an alternative room on the third floor but given that the cherry picker is going up and down they don’t think that’ll be any quieter. My balcony was painted the other day rendering that out of use; the workmen just slapped a sticker on the window that morning to say out of use. I’m I was staying in a cheap hotel in Spain I could understand it… But I’m not! I’m paying premium money to stay at a Disney 5 star resort and the experience is very poor!! It’s a rip off and very much spoiling our premium vacation. The staff are very friendly but saying ‘have a nice day’ to me all the time whilst not addressing these issues rings hollow! I won’t be staying here again, I doubt I’ll try a Disney property again, my advice is to spend your premium money elsewhere

Great experience to stay here! Finally got to as it’s been on my bucket list! I got a great summer rate. I loved my Sunrise view from our water view room on the 6th floor. Getting up early to see sunrise on the lake is a must. I really enjoyed roaring forks food court as I thought the food was good and a nice cozy area to sit and eat. With The summer heat we enjoyed the pool a lot. Night time swim was Magical! Having the boat ride to Magic Kingdom was a big plus! Also you can easily take boat to Contemporary after 3 which was great for visiting resorts on Monrail to get a bite to eat. Definitely got to try the Campfire cupcake if you stay here! The best !!

This hotel can be described in one word: incredible. The theming is out of this world, the lobby looks amazing. All of the staff go out of their way to help you. We were upgraded to a fireworks room and it was honestly terrific. The pool areas are lovely, the grounds are beautiful. The transportation to the parks is frequent and reliable. I have stayed in many hotels around the world and I can honestly say that this one tops them all. Thank you so much Wilderness Lodge for an unforgettable stay!

What an incredible hotel. I was so sad to leave. We had 6 people and the room was not suitable, however after speaking to front desk, without hesitation Kevin moved us to a more suitable space and was amazing. We really appreciated this. The resort is just beautiful. Great facilities for the children with the pool and water play area. We cooked smores in the evening by the fire (they have free marshmallows or you pay for a s’mores kit. A cute ferry ride to Magic Kingdom. You can see the fireworks off the pier of an evening. The staff are friendly and helpful. The grounds are absolutely stunning. I am from Australia and one thing I love in America is the pine trees, creeks and wooden lodge style forest accommodation. This is just that. Out of our 10 hotels on this visit, this was my favorite. I hope to return one day 💕 thankyou wilderness lodge for and amazing 4 nights ❤️

This is the second time we stayed at the Wilderness Lodge. It was an amazing stay from start to finish. It’s a beautiful hotel and the service was incredible. From Minnie Van drivers, to front desk, to concierge, to any other employee we encountered…each and every one of them were friendly, helpful, and gave the best service. Rooms were very clean and comfortable. We stayed at the club level…wow! I won’t stay anywhere else if I get to come back!

We had previously stayed at the Floridian and Polynesian (many years ago) and decided on the Floridian for our party of ten. Floridian is having major construction across the street, causing a lot of dust, and some lobby store renovation. We decided to try the Wilderness Lodge and were very pleasantly surprised how great it is. The beautiful pools are close by, there are shady areas around the property, the lobby architecture and decor is spectacular, and you get all the fantastic Disney treatment. Going to Magic Kingdom by boat is an added plus. Families will love it.
