food IS a theme park
The Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort underwent a total transformation recently, with brand-new cabins replacing the ones that had been there for years.
OLD Fort Wilderness Cabin
Shortly after the old cabins were removed, we started to see them pop up for sale here and there, which had us wondering who would buy one. Well, now we have our answer because a few more of the old cabins have popped up for rent on Airbnb near Disney World!
When you’re driving through Disney World, you see all kinds of things that you don’t see on a normal highway. You might spot a Skyliner gondola above your car. You might see fireworks in the distance. You could even see a giant Mickey-shaped solar farm! Point is, you never know what you might see on the road. Be alert!
Welcome to Disney World!
During a recent visit to Disney World, we spotted something BIG on the road. It might look familiar — especially if you’ve ever visited Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground. Wanna see?
Over the past few years, Disney has started or announced a lot of projects and then backtracked on them.

Just to name a few, we have the Mary Poppins attraction in EPCOT‘s UK Pavilion, a refurbishment to Spaceship Earth, the PLAY! Pavilion reimagining (formerly known as the Wonders of Life Pavilion), as well as an ENTIRE hotel, Reflections — A Disney Lakeside Lodge. We haven’t heard any official news on this hotel in a long time, but here’s why some fans of the idea may think it could still happen.
It’s official — the MAJOR changes at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Cabins are finally here.

The new cabins are being installed, which means we’re saying goodbye to the rustic, wooden cabins we’ve known for many years. But new things are happening! This whole change has been quite controversial, but we have to admit — there are some parts of these new cabins that we really love! Hear us out. There are some big improvements at the NEW Disney Vacation Club Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort.
Saddle up, partners! We’re headed to the wilderness. Fort Wilderness, that is. What brings us out into the great outdoors? We’re glad you asked!

Disney surprised a LOT of people back in 2023 when it announced a total Fort Wilderness Cabins MAKEOVER. The new Disney Vacation Club Cabins at Fort Wilderness are completely new, and we got a chance to check them out! Want to see them for yourselves? Giddyup, let’s GO!
If you’re a fan of all things Disney World, then you’ve probably heard about the Cabins at Fort Wilderness, which are currently undergoing a MAJOR refresh.

The newly remodeled cabins are set to open THIS summer, but we know that lots of Disney fans are a bit sad to see the old cabins go. We get it — lots of memories were made there! Well, what if we told you that these older cabins are FOR SALE?!
Can you believe it? We’re only a few months away from being able to stay in one of the NEW Fort Wilderness Cabins coming to Fort Wilderness Resort!
Welcome to Fort Wilderness
Construction has begun on the new cabins, which will open in July of this year, and you can already make reservations. We’ve seen artist renderings of these new cabins (which have garnered mixed reactions), but now we’re getting a full look at the cabins in a REALLY cool way!
Soon, over 350 NEW cabins will open in Disney World. Disney previously announced that the Cabins at Fort Wilderness are getting a makeover. Yep, those classic log cabin homes are being totally redesigned to become the Disney Vacation Club Cabins at Fort Wilderness Resort (but luckily, you don’t have to be a Disney Vacation Club member to book a stay in the cabins).

The concept art shows off the modern NEW cabins,”inspired by the resort’s idyllic setting, while also paying homage to the resort’s unique culture and heritage through the magic of Disney storytelling.” These cabins are set to open this summer (along with a LOT of other things in Disney World), but first, Disney has to actually BUILD these things. This isn’t just a quick renovation, people. It’s a totally NEW design. Come take a look!
Back in 2023, Disney announced that the Cabins at Fort Wilderness would be getting a makeover. Imagineers have redesigned these spaces to become the Disney Vacation Club Cabins at Fort Wilderness Resort (but you don’t have to be a Disney Vacation Club member to book a stay in a new cabin.)

We’ve been keeping up with all the updates Disney has revealed about the new cabins, but what’s going to happen to the old ones? We know Disney will be getting rid of them, so will they be gone for good? Our answer might just be hiding…in the Grand Canyon.
If you’re hoping to stay in an updated hotel room on your next Disney World trip, then 2024 is your year!
