We Just Got A NEW Update On Disney World’s Upcoming Hotel

Another day, another Disney World construction update! The Orlando resort is changing a lot these days with some major updates coming to Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, and Hollywood Studios.

Lakeshore Lodge!

They’re also working on expanding their hotel offerings by adding another resort, called Disney Lakeshore Lodge! We’ve been tracking the hotel’s progress since it was first announced and now we’re back with more updates.

Disney’s Lakeshore Lodge is really starting to take shape! During a recent stop by Disney’s Fort Wilderness resort, we got up close and personal with the construction.

That’s starting to look like a hotel!

The hotel’s skeleton has been taking shape for a while, but we loved getting to see it from this point of view. There were tons of construction, walls, traffic cones, and more. This hotel will be in the Magic Kingdom resort area, tucked between Disney’s Wilderness Lodge and Fort Wilderness.

So much construction!

Thanks to @bioreconstruct on X, we have also watched the construction from the sky. We’ve spotted the different wings of the hotel, what seems to be a lazy river, the growing pool, and more. The photo below was taken in January 2026.

This hotel sits on the former home of River Country, Disney’s permanently closed water park. In addition to the main hotel, we have also seen the cabins or villas come to life along the edge of the property. The resort is slated to open in 2027, and construction updates do imply the resort is on track.

An up close look!

We also drove by it on the water during our most recent trip over. It’s looking beautiful!

This new resort is “inspired by the majesty of nature and its enduring influence on Disney artists.” In the concept art, we’ve also seen nods to several Disney characters that all have connections to nature. If you squint, you might notice Bambi, Flower, and Thumper in the artwork below.

We’re always excited to see a new hotel coming to Disney World because that means new shopping options, new restaurants, and a new bar or two. This hotel will be a Disney Vacation Club resort, and it will feature more than 900 rooms!

While Disney has said the hotel is supposed to open in 2027, they haven’t shared an official opening date, but we’re expecting more information on that sometime this year. You can read more about the upcoming resort here!
