Our tips:

Disney's Wilderness Lodge
Disney's Wilderness Lodge is inspired by the grand lodges of the national parks in the American Northwest around 1900. You sleep among pine trees, totem poles and a stone fireplace, with a creek outside that turns into a waterfall.
Location and transport
The hotel sits on Bay Lake in the Magic Kingdom Resort Area. You can take the boat to Magic Kingdom. The free bus runs to the other parks.
Rooms and suites
You can choose between rooms with resort views or water views. With a Fireworks View you can see (part of) the fireworks above Magic Kingdom. Club Level gives you access to a private lounge. Boulder Ridge Villas and Copper Creek Villas & Cabins are also part of the lodge.
Early Theme Park Entry
Get into all four theme parks half an hour early on every day of your stay, including your arrival and departure days.
Extended Evening Hours
On selected evenings, one theme park stays open later for guests of the Deluxe hotels and Deluxe Villas.
Buy Lightning Lane earlier
Hotel guests can buy Lightning Lane passes 7 days before their stay, for their entire stay. Everyone else can only do so 3 days in advance.
Food and drink
At Story Book Dining at Artist Point with Snow White you dine with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. At Whispering Canyon Café you eat from a skillet in a Wild West atmosphere. Geyser Point Bar & Grill is right on the lake and Roaring Fork is for quick bites.
Pools and practical information
There are two swimming pools: the playful Copper Creek Springs Pool (where the waterfall ends up) and the quiet Boulder Ridge Cove Pool. By the lake, a geyser erupts every hour. In the evening there are campfires with s'mores and Movie Under the Stars.
Address: 901 Timberline Drive, Lake Buena Vista. According to Disney, construction or renovation work is currently taking place at the hotel. Bear in mind there may be works going on.
