What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Spacious and Comfortable

The cabins are amazing! They are more like an extremely large hotel room with a kitchen and come with maid service. Our family loved the layout, with a main room that has a comfortable pull-out couch, and the luxurious queen-sized bed made for a restful night's sleep. It really felt like a home away from home.

Fun for Kids

This place is perfect for families with kids! The kids loved the bunk beds, and there was also a lovely children's water play area at the pool. They enjoyed watching nighttime movies and making s'mores by the campfire—such a fun activity for everyone!

Great Entertainment Options

We were pleasantly surprised by the entertainment options at Fort Wilderness. There are nightly movies outdoors, perfect for cozy family evenings. Plus, it's just a beautiful boat ride away from the Magic Kingdom, making it easy to enjoy both the cabin's comforts and Disney magic!

Clean and Convenient

The cabin's bathroom was quite spacious and had all the amenities we needed. I appreciated the clean setup, and the fact that it had a walk-in shower! It was so convenient after a long day at the parks, and the large sink area allowed for easy use even when everyone was getting ready at the same time.

Our stay at the cabins was delightful, especially with the affordable price for such a magical experience close to the parks. The cabins are clean and provide a charming, rustic atmosphere perfect for families. However, transportation can be a hassle with limited options and sometimes long wait times for buses. The bathrooms could use better maintenance as our shower had some mold issues, which was disappointing.

Our stay at the cabins was a mixed bag. While they offered great space and a clean environment, the transportation issues were frustrating and the bed comfort was lacking. The cabin amenities were impressive for family stays, but I think the whole experience could be improved, especially for the price we paid.

We had an amazing stay at Fort Wilderness! The cabins were spacious and clean, providing a home-like atmosphere for our family during our Disney trip. With a variety of activities available right on the resort, we barely even needed to head to the parks. However, due to the sheer size of the property, getting around could be challenging without a golf cart, which we didn't rent this time.

The cabins at the resort offer a unique, quiet experience after busy days at the parks, but they do come with some drawbacks. The kitchens are a great convenience, and the pool area is enjoyable. However, the cleanliness standards left something to be desired, and some aspects of service, like the bus schedules and checkout experience, could be improved.
