The Cabins at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort
The Cabins at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort are detached log cabins set in a forest of pines and cypresses on Bay Lake. This Disney Vacation Club resort puts a new spin on cabin camping, with tall windows, a full kitchen and large screens.
Location and transport
The resort is in the Magic Kingdom Resort Area. You can take the boat to Magic Kingdom; the free bus runs to the other parks. On site, you can hire a golf cart for four or six people.
Rooms and suites
Each cabin has a bedroom, a bathroom, a living room, a full kitchen and a private terrace. A number of cabins are dog-friendly (maximum two dogs, for a fee).
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
You eat on the Fort Wilderness grounds. A well-known option is the Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue, a dinner show with an all-you-can-eat country feast. Trail's End Restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and you can grab a drink at Crockett's Tavern.
Pools and practical information
You can swim in the Meadow Swimmin' Pool with its corkscrew slide or in the quieter Wilderness Swimmin' Pool. You can also go canoeing, try archery, go horse riding at the Tri-Circle-D Ranch and sing along at Chip 'n' Dale's Campfire Sing-A-Long.
Address: 4510 North Fort Wilderness Trail, 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.
