Located on Bay Lake between Disney's Wilderness Lodge and Fort Wilderness Resort, the ground clearing is progressing well, although further development will likely be impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak.

The deluxe resort, which will be themed to complement its natural surroundings, will include more than 900 hotel rooms and proposed Disney Vacation Club villas spread across a variety of unique accommodation types.

Bob is a liar and Disney loves to build DVCs

MagicHappens197119 days ago

We all know what Bob actually meant by added capacity and he did not mean resorts. I get that Disney's track record the past few years is not great, but it is abundantly clear that they do intend to truly increase capacity at their parks in the coming years. With that being said, they can still build another DVC like Reflections at the same time. I'm not so sure of the geography of that corner of MK, but I feel if they could build a new resort that could have a park entrance to the BBTM expansion, that would be ideal, as well as an additional entrance/exit to the park.

Actually no, way less than 10 for Reflections. Three, four maybe? Polyday Inn on the other hand ....

It’s not gonna be anything It was ill advised and unnecessary. Hence the quick hook. They can’t fill the rooms they have …I like your style 🫢

Thanks for the advice. You call it negativity, I call it reality. Am I happy about it? No. Reality sucks. Escaping reality is why folks used to go to WDW.

I am actually going to agree. Gut tells me the DVC cabins won't fly well. Also, they are adding/have added additional DVC capability in each resort in MK area, so why would this be different?

Did you see the news yesterday? Today might not the day to double-down on all the negativity. Give it a rest man, it will feel good.

I guarantee this project will start up again - 1. Its a DVC 2. Disney can say they "added capacity" by building this.

Define “dead”. 😉 It seems that it might return in some form as an addition to the “Cabins at FW DVC resort”. At some time. Although personally I don’t think it will be a stand-alone DVC resort.

So do we think this project may not be dead after all?

HauntedPirate20 days ago

Bob needs that sweet, sweet DVC money to keep rolling in. And this (once?) dead project would have fit with their repeated claims of “expanded capacity” over the next 10 years.
