Disney World Schedules Fort Wilderness Lobby Renovation for October–November

Arriving guests should expect daytime work with check-in redirected to a nearby temporary location.

Overview

  • The lobby will be closed for refurbishment from early October through early November 2025, according to the resort’s booking notice.
  • Other amenities, including pools, the Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue and Chip ’n’ Dale’s Campfire Sing-A-Long, plus watercraft and bus service, will remain available.
  • Guests are advised to follow posted signage and ask a Cast Member for assistance on arrival.
  • Disney has not released design details for the updated space, leaving its alignment with last year’s modern DVC cabins uncertain.
  • The project is part of a wider wave of lobby updates across Walt Disney World hotels, including recent work at Pop Century, Grand Floridian, and Polynesian.
