Disney has officially announced the development of a brand-new Disney Vacation Club (DVC) resort hotel—Disney Lakeshore Lodge. Set to open in 2027, the new resort will be constructed within the same footprint as the previously announced Reflections—A Disney Lakeside Lodge project, which was shelved in 2020.

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.

Stay tuned for further updates as Disney Lakeshore Lodge begins to take shape and more information becomes available.

Or a Tree STOMP Villa. Note: I said Stomp 😉 as the hovering tree tower is unpleasant Stomp in your face from miles. Forget the insult inspiration to TreeHouse Villas🤭..

It will be green as a tree and it will play "Look For The Bear Becessities". It Basically represents monkeys 🐒 grabbing hold and taking you away on the Stomp Tree.

My money is on June 30 - but only if they slow down their current pace.

I'm waiting for people to speculate how many days until the resort opens "given the current rapid pace of construction". ;)

Boat from Wilderness Lodge to MK. It’s really not visible from Wilderness Lodge at the moment until you get to the shoreline. I’d only expect it to be marginally more visible than Contemporary and Bay Lake Tower, which is to say, not very. Will definitely have a bigger impact on the Fort Wilderness ambiance.

Holy cow. For some reason I thought it was like half that. Thanks

He said he always wanted to clone all the hotels and other clutter that popped up outside of Disneyland. They're just fulfilling and plussing Walt's dream!
