Progress continues at the construction site for Disney Lakeshore Lodge, the Disney Vacation Club (DVC) resort scheduled to open in 2027 at Walt Disney World.
Photos from this week show that vertical construction has begun, with the first story of the resort now visible. These photos, taken from locations around Pioneer Hall, provide a clear view of the early structural framework along Bay Lake.
Disney Lakeshore Lodge will be inspired by the majesty of nature and its enduring influence on Disney artists. According to Disney, the resort will offer a unique blend of rustic elegance and imaginative storytelling, providing guests with a serene escape along the shores of Bay Lake, between Disney's Wilderness Lodge and Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort.
The original Reflections project was announced in 2018 as a deluxe nature-themed resort featuring over 900 hotel rooms and Disney Vacation Club villas. However, it was quietly shelved amid the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the area remained largely untouched until recent activity suggested the project might be revived.
