Disney's Wilderness
Lodge® first opened
at Walt Disney World® Resort
on May 28, 1994. Themed to invoke the
Pacific Northwest, and inspired by the great National Park lodges from the turn
of the 20th century, the “Lodge” is an
architectural masterpiece honoring American craftsmanship and artistry, and
celebrating the majesty of the unspoiled wilderness. It was designed by famed
architect Peter Dominick (who also designed Walt
Disney World® Resort’s other great lodge - Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge®; as well as Disneyland® Resort’s awe-inspiring Disney’s Grand Californian® Hotel & Spa); and pays
homage to ancient Native American cultures and the American pioneering spirit
through authentic décor and genuine artifacts on display throughout the
lodge.
Awed and impressed are the feelings you’ll have from your
first steps inside the Lodge’s stunning 7-story lobby, with its 82 foot tall
fireplace representing the various layers of rock strata of the Grand Canyon,
to the hand-carved multi-story totem poles.
Disney's Wilderness Lodge® features 727 guest
rooms, offering wildlife, nature and Native American themes. Honeymoon suites feature marble whirlpool
tubs; many rooms feature bunk-beds for
families with small children. Larger 1
and 2 bedroom suites are also available.
Outside be sure to look for the bubbling spring flowing from
the lobby, and tumbling over a sparkling waterfall towards the swimming pool,
and continuing on into Bay Lake. Nearby
you’ll find Fire Rock Geyser, designed with Yellowstone National Park’s “Old
Faithful” in mind, sending plumes of water up to 120 feet in the air every
hour.
Disney's Wilderness Lodge® features 2 table
service restaurants: Whispering Canyon Café and Artist Point; and includes one
quick-service restaurant: Roaring Fork;
as well as 2 lounge/bar locations: Territory
Lounge and Trout Pass.
Disney’s Wilderness
Lodge® is a deluxe level resort located in the Magic
Kingdom area. Convenient boat
transportation will take guests directly to Magic Kingdom Park®,
as well as bus transportation to all other parts of Walt Disney World®
Resort.
