Feel close to the magic by camping near the magic! Guests will take in the American frontier with all different types of wildlife, including deer, rabbits, ducks, and armadillos that will roam the resort. Can you believe that this resort takes up 750 acres? You can relax in the great outdoors only minutes from Magic Kingdom!

Check out our complete guide to Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground HERE. The campsites are in a category of their own when booking, and the cabins are now part of the Disney Vacation Club.

Construction is well underway at Fort Wilderness for Disney’s Lakeshore Lodge. This new DVC resort is expected to open in 2027! Disney stated that the resort is “inspired by the majesty of nature and its enduring influence on Disney artists.”

New Pool for Fort Wilderness

Today, Disney shared big news coming to Fort Wilderness, and we are so excited for it!

Disney shares, “There’s more magic on the horizon: At Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground, we’re expanding the Meadow Swimming Pool to make room for even more fun and relaxation.”

“A brand-new zero-entry pool and deck area is being added alongside the existing pool, effectively doubling the space for guests to enjoy.” The Yacht and Beach Club are the only other Disney resorts to offer a lazy river, so this will be a great addition to this resort.

Fort Wilderness Amenities

This expansion will also bring a tennis court and two pickleball courts to Fort Wilderness. Without a doubt, Fort Wilderness offers so many great guest experiences.
