What You Might Not Know About Disney's Wilderness Lodge at Walt Disney World

[Wendy]

If you have ever been to Disney's Wilderness Lodge, you know you walk through the resort’s doorway in Florida and, suddenly, you’ve been transported to America’s Great Northwest.

The seven-story lobby is built with eighty-five truckloads of Lodgepole Pine, brought from Oregon and Montana. The layered look of the main 82-foot fireplace duplicates the layered rock strata of the Grand Canyon. The resort’s 727 guest rooms reflect themes of wildlife, nature and Native American designs.

Disney’s Wilderness Lodge has something for everyone — fans of American history, lovers of the great outdoors, and folks who just want to relax by the two pools and the white-sand beach. For fans of classic Disney animation, guest rooms just went through a refresh – including the addition of shower tiles featuring Meeko from “Pocahontas,” “Bambi,” and Chip ‘n Dale.

Here’s a video tour around the resort.
