The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Fantastic Dining Options

During my stay at Wilderness Lodge, I had the pleasure of dining at all three restaurants, and I must say, each offered a unique dining experience! Roaring Forks was perfect for a quick bite before heading out to the parks, while Whispering Canyon Cafe provided a fun and interactive atmosphere with delicious comfort food. Geyser Point had a beautiful lakeside view and was a good spot to relax with snacks and drinks. Every meal was nice!

Comfortable & Cozy Rooms

I was thrilled with the connecting rooms my family secured! The bunk beds were a hit with my kids, and it felt like we had two rooms in one. Even though the hotel claims that their rooms are among the smallest in the deluxe category, they were designed efficiently, with comfortable beds and beautiful decor. We had a great view of the fireworks from our balcony which added to the magic of our stay.

Kid-Friendly Amenities

The kids absolutely loved the pool area! It featured a fun water slide and a play area with a water wheel that kept them entertained for hours. The kids’ activities and staff by the pool were amazing, ensuring that little ones had a wonderful time while allowing the adults to relax. The entire atmosphere was perfect for families, and it allowed us to create lasting memories.

Relaxing Pool Area

The pool area at Wilderness Lodge was just what we needed after busy days at the parks. The hot tubs were warm and inviting, and the main pool had a lovely atmosphere with plenty of seating. It wasn’t overly crowded, providing a perfect spot to unwind and enjoy some family time. This pool was definitely a highlight of our trip!

Staying at Wilderness Lodge was a nostalgic delight for my family and me. The resort's theming is stunning, especially the iconic lobby that provides that perfect cozy atmosphere. While the rooms are decent, they could benefit from some updates to enhance comfort. We loved the easy access to the Magic Kingdom via the boat, and the dining options exceeded our expectations. However, at times, service was a bit slow at the bars, which could be improved. Overall, it was a fantastic stay filled with family-friendly fun and memorable moments!

I had a fantastic experience at the Wilderness Lodge. The hotel is beautifully designed, with a fantastic atmosphere, especially around the holiday season. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable, although it did get a bit crowded during New Year's.

I had an incredible stay at the Wilderness Lodge! The lobby's grandeur was breathtaking, especially during the Christmas season when everything was beautifully decorated. While my room was stunning with a magical view of the fireworks and the castle, the very slight unpleasant odor was a minor hiccup. Overall, the experience was fantastic, and I can't wait to return.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel, with its stunning lodge design and the convenience of taking a boat to the Magic Kingdom. The staff was very helpful, especially during check-in, where I didn’t have to deal with lines at all. However, the restaurant hours were disappointing, as it closed at 2 PM, which limited my lunch options. Overall, it’s a beautiful place with great amenities, but the dining schedule could use some improvement.
