Letters from Lakeshore: Updates on Disney World’s Newest Resort

Greetings from the south shores of Bay Lake at Walt Disney World Resort, the future home of Disney Lakeshore Lodge.

The Disney Parks Blog invites readers to follow "Letters from Lakeshore," a series sharing updates as the nature-inspired Disney Lakeshore Lodge comes to life, featuring exclusive behind-the-scenes moments along the way.

Readers are encouraged to bookmark updates as the story of nature unfolds leading to the grand opening of Disney Lakeshore Lodge in summer 2027.

Disney Lakeshore Lodge will be a waterfront retreat where guests and their families can experience the wonder of nature through Disney storytelling, projected to open in summer 2027.

The design inspires guests by paying tribute to Walt Disney's lifelong admiration for the outdoors, with subtle nods to classic animated films such as Bambi, Pocahontas, and Brother Bear.

Nestled along the tranquil Bay Lake, the resort invites families to slow down and enjoy their surroundings, featuring spectacular floor-to-ceiling windows that highlight views of local flora and fauna.

Disney Lakeshore Lodge will offer 967 thoughtfully designed rooms including cozy studios, spacious suites, and new one- and two-bedroom Lake Houses that provide waterfront views and ample space for families.

Many rooms will provide peaceful views of Bay Lake by day and spectacular views of Magic Kingdom fireworks by night, creating a seamless outdoor-indoor connection.

Further details about dining locations, recreational offerings, amenities, and the unique design elements will be shared in upcoming updates.
