A new nature-inspired resort is coming to Disney World in 2022

Updated:

Disney has announced that a new nature-inspired mixed-use resort will come to the shoreline of Bay Lake situated between Wilderness Lodge Resort andย Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground in 2022.

The new deluxe resort will feature over 900 rooms that will include a variety of accommodation types andย Disney Vacation Club villas.

The resort, which doesn’t have a formal name yet, will be the 16th resort that will have accommodations for Disney Vacation Club members.

Terri Schultz, senior vice president and general manager of Disney Vacation Club, said:

“This resort experience will be a celebration of Walt Disney’s lifelong love and respect for nature, with some fun and even surprising accommodation types that families will find irresistible.”

This new resort will sit on/near the old River Country water park that was closed in 2001. The location, which is in close proximity to the Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground, will be nature-themed, but it’s unclear what that specifically means at this time.

While a name hasn’t been announced, surveys have been circulating with potential names for the new resort.
