  • Overall Impression: If we hadn’t experienced the problem with the hot water and pipes, I would have booked my bounce back offer here. But instead I decided to try French Quarter next year.

  • Overall Impression: A beautiful resort. My only big contention was: we have club level lounge access which is on the top floor. Deluxe rooms are at the end wing of the resort facing the boat dock and Bay Lake. It’s one heck of a walk to the elevator, swipe your band to go up, then another long walk just to get to the lounge. To make it worse, we were on the first floor. It was a lot quicker just to go to the roaring fork with refillable mugs for drinks and coffee than a 10 minute trip to the lounge.

  • Overall Impression: First experience at a Deluxe and was blown away to the point that we ended up buying into DVC to make sure that would be our permanent situation. Currently looking for a resale contract at Copper Creek solely because of our stay here.

  • Overall Impression: Rethinking the whole process of DVC. Was prepared to purchase additional points but this visit has left us with, needless to say, bad thoughts. I purchased additional points to add to original contract, my daughter also bought points to coincide. She and her husband were considering more points but now rethinking if they want the same treatment again.

  • Overall Impression: We love this resort, and started planning our next two trips as we drove under the welcome sign on departure day. The resort is beautiful inside and outside. The activities offered are fun and engaging. The rooms are spacious and the views are breathtaking. The sounds of the stream and waterfall were very calming while sitting on the balcony after a long day in the parks.

  • Overall Impression: DVC member for 20 years. Our most memorable stay. Hotel did a fantastic job during hurricane advisories. Requested an upper floor and got it. Had two fairly big issues in our room which were addressed immediately....

  • Overall Impression: We loved Wilderness Lodge! Each day I looked forward to going back to the resort after a long day in the parks. We took a second trip to WDW in October and even though we didn’t stay at WL we took a ride over from Fort Wilderness just to go back to Geyser Point for a drink and to walk around for a bit. I would recommend that anyone stay at WL - it is great for adults and kids alike.

  • Overall Impression: Overall, I understand the charm for Wilderness Lodge but its not for me. The lobby is awesome, dining is abundant with lots of options and cast is wonderful. However, if you're looking for a great experience here for your vacation, better to stay DVC or another deluxe resort on the monorail loop or Epcot area. The courtyard room I had was only ok and didn't drown out the noise of neighbors or pool goers. Beds were comfortable but I'd rather stay someplace else in the deluxe family next time. For the price I paid, I expected more.

  • Overall Impression: We were super excited to stay at Wilderness Lodge. Our family of five is typically too big to stay here so we've never been able to expeirence it. I had an unexpected work trip come up that my wife could join me on so we took our first trip without the kids. We had a great time. The hotel is gorgeous. We had a standard view and watched the Magic Kingdom fireworks from our balcony nightly. Our room was worn. Furniture was stained. The rooms are in need of deep cleaning or refurbishment.

  • Overall Impression: This is our favorite hotel on property, have stayed here several times over the years. I'm disappointed in all the DVC development though. There used to be a small pond on one side of the hotel with beavers in it. On a previous visit we had a room that overlooked the pond and we'd watch the beavers in the morning from our balcony. Now that area is all DVC cabins. Sad.
