Inside The Cabins at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort
Walt Disney Imagineers have drawn inspiration from the cabins' peaceful surroundings, infusing a touch of Disney whimsy to create unique accommodations dedicated to preserving the resort's heritage.
Floor to ceiling glass windows bring the beauty of the outdoors into each cabin, while charming original artwork adorns the interior. Each cabin features nods to the resort's early days as well some familiar faces, including Mickey Mouse, Pluto and the dynamic chipmunk duo, Chip and Dale.
Each one-bedroom cabin comfortably sleeps up to six guests and includes a main bedroom, bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, living area, dining area and outdoor patio. Elevated just-like-home comforts make each stay as one-of-a-kind as it gets. Dog-friendly cabins are also available for those looking to bring along their furry friend.
In addition to offering experiences and features that Members expect from Disney Vacation Club, the cabins were built with an eye toward sustainability in support of The Walt Disney Company's environmental goals. Through an innovative process developed in collaboration with two Florida businesses, each cabin was produced with less than one percent metal waste and was constructed in a way that preserved the natural beauty of the resort's wilderness. Additionally, each cabin is equipped with an on-site electric vehicle charging station.
