Part 2 of 3 : The Villas at Disney's Wilderness Lodge

In part 1, we looked at The Wilderness Lodge, today, I thought we'd take a quick look at the Villas, the Disney Vacation Club section. The Villas are in a separate building adjacent to the Lodge, connected via a covered walkway. I will be honest, it has a different feel than the main building. Some may prefer it, as it is more quiet, and quaint. I prefer the main Lodge myself.
Still, we will stay here again, as it is a great location, and beautiful in and of itself.



We had a corner room, so out a small window to the left, we had a view of the quiet pool.
I actually prefer this pool to the main pool, as it has bubbling jets, like a hot spring.


From our balcony, a view through the trees of Bay Lake.


In the lobby, a hidden Mickey! One of my wife's favorites.

 

The very cozy chairs next to the fireplace.


A photo of Walt, enjoying his favorite hobby.


In the Carolwood Room, you will find 2 train cars, donated by Walt's daughter to the Wilderness Lodge. The cars actually come from Walt's own backyard railroad, the Carolwood Pacific Railroad!


I love maps, and this hangs just off of the Carolwood Room.


Next, in the series we'll take a look at the Cabins at Fort Wilderness.
