Aerials Show Lazy River Taking Shape at Disney’s Lakeshore Lodge

Aerial photos show Disney’s Bay Lake resort advancing toward a 2027 debut on the former River Country site.

Overview

  • New overhead images confirm a nearly complete concrete lazy river and adjacent feature pool foundations centered between the two main wings.
  • The lazy river would be only the second at a Walt Disney World hotel, following Stormalong Bay at Disney’s Yacht & Beach Club.
  • Shoreline work includes a dock under construction on Bay Lake and a separate lakeside building rising near the water.
  • A‑frame cabins along the shore are progressing, reflecting design cues from the earlier Reflections – A Disney Lakeside Lodge concept.
  • The property is moving forward as a combined hotel and Disney Vacation Club resort of about 900 rooms with distinct wings, with opening expected in 2027.
