Overview
- Disney Parks Blog, which unveiled new concept art Tuesday, confirmed Disney Lakeshore Lodge will open at Walt Disney World in summer 2027.
- The resort is a Disney Vacation Club property with 967 accommodations, including studios, suites, and new one- and two-bedroom waterfront Lake Houses.
- The design centers on nature with subtle nods to Bambi, Pocahontas, and Brother Bear, and floor-to-ceiling windows designed to showcase Bay Lake by day and Magic Kingdom fireworks at night.
- The project rises on Bay Lake at the former River Country site between Fort Wilderness and Wilderness Lodge, reviving the 2018 Reflections concept after a pandemic pause.
- Construction progress reports show large windows going in and A-frame cabins taking shape along the shore, while Disney says dining, recreation, amenities, and booking details will come in the months ahead.
