Disney World has a BRAND-NEW Hotel opening on July 1st, 2027: The Lakeshore Lodge… And I am STOKED! Look, I know that a lot of people are hating on Disney World hotels right now, but me? I’m excited for Lakeshore Lodge (yes, despite people calling the rooms here a “glorified Marriott”) based on some of the fantastic concept art and aerial construction photos we’ve seen.

Built on the site of the former River Country water park, the hotel has a design “inspired by the majesty of nature and its enduring influence on Disney artists,” with elements of numerous films, including Pocohontus, Brother Bear, Encanto, Fantasia, and Bambi. It’s going to be home to 967 guest rooms, a massive waterplay/pool complex known as the Wetlands (which frankly looks like it could be my new favorite pool at Disney World), and — OF COURSE — a cadre of new dining options!
