Disney4me Posted March 1 Report Share Posted March 1 A new Disney World hotel is on the horizon and we’re breaking down everything we know so far! ©Disney Disney’s Lakeshore Lodge is the newest hotel being built near Magic Kingdom, and it’s been a long time coming. Originally, Disney announced a hotel called Reflections: A Lakeside Lodge for this space and never discussed it again. But now, Disney has announced that it will be built and will be renamed to Lakeshore Lodge. So what do we know so far? Opening Date Disney announced that this resort will open in 2027, just two years away! Construction is already underway. Construction on January 25th Location It is set to occupy the former home of Disney’s River Country water park near Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground. You can also see the construction of the hotel over at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge Resort. In the photo below, you can see the construction of Lakeshore Lodge in the middle with Wilderness Lodge to the right and Fort Wilderness directly to the left. via @bioreconstruct on X Overall Theme The brand-new hotel will be “inspired by the majesty of nature and its enduring influence on Disney artists.” If we zoom in on the concept art, we can see what appears to be a sign above the entrance to the hotel saying “The Wonders of Nature are Endless”. It also appears to be a silhouette of what looks like Pocahontas, although we cannot be sure. ©Disney The Resort Category We do know that Lakeshore Lodge will be a DVC (Disney Vacation Club) Resort. We can expect it to be a Deluxe Resort and should have similar qualities and perks as others like it. Disney IP Influence on Resort In the concept art, we can see Bambi, Flower, and Thumper from Disney’s Bambi. We aren’t sure if these will be statues or topiaries, or maybe they are just there in the art for fun. ©Disney We mentioned a certain Disney Princess above, and here she is again. Now, this is the concept art for the lobby of the previous Reflections: A Lakeside Lodge and we haven’t seen what the Lakeshore Lodge’s lobby will be like, but maybe they will draw some inspiration from this.

The Rooms While we haven’t heard an update since the hotels changed names, originally this resort was announced as an ALL-NEW Disney Vacation Club hotel with more than 900 rooms. This could have changed since the new direction. In that concept art, we also saw some of these cabin-like rooms that appear to be up in the trees. Again, we aren’t sure, but this could be a possibility. ©Disney That is all we know as of now, but we are excited for Disney to release more details to the public.
