Disney4me Posted June 17 Report Posted June 17 A brand new hotel is coming to Disney World, and we couldn’t be more excited. Lakeshore Lodge is being built where Disney’s River Country water park once sat, finally making use of that long-abandoned space near Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground. Lakeshore Lodge Concept Art ©Disney We’ve been keeping an eye on construction over at the new resort, and Disney has been dropping a few details. Well, now, Disney has revealed new details about The Wetlands, the outdoor recreation area you’ll find just beyond the hotel’s lobby. Lakeshore Lodge’s The Wetlands will be a place where guests can find both fun and relaxation. One part of The Wetlands will be for kiddos, where they can “become part of nature’s story through whimsical wet and dry play areas inspired by the music and storytelling of Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Pocahontas.” The play area will be inspired by the lyrics “the heron and the otter are my friends” from “Colros of the Wind.” ©Disney Heron Shores will also bring exploration and hands-on play to kids with climbing features, while Otter Springs will come to life with interactive water fun. The lazy Daydream River will be where guests can sit back and relax on an innertube while the river carries them through The Wetlands. ©Disney Lakeside Lagoon is in the center of The Wetlands. This is a zero-entry pool for guests of all ages. It will include a spiral waterslide. A leisure pool will be located on the opposite side of Lakeshore Lodge, complete with a whirlpool spa and a view of Magic Kingdom’s fireworks at night. ©Disney There’s also a scenic path that runs through the recreation area that will uncover facts about the plants and flowers surrounding them. Disney also teased a special plaque that honors a “beloved historic attraction that once stood on this very spot.” Disney, you tease! Lakeshore Lodge will officially open in summer 2027, but until then, we’ll keep an eye out for more updates, so stay tuned to DFB for more. 4 Details Hiding in the Concept Art for Disney World’s Newest Hotel, Lakeshore Lodge Join the DFB Newsletter to get all the breaking news right in your inbox!
