Mark your calendars! The wilderness is calling!

Here are some key dates to keep in mind to book one of the brand-new Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness.

Tucked away in the wondrous woodlands of Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort, each spacious one-bedroom cabin villa will offer the comforts of “home” and the joys of staying in the great outdoors. The first loop of cabins will open on July 1, with more loops opening throughout the year.

And if they haven’t heard, there are some show stopping activities guests can enjoy during their stay! Here are some fan-favorites:

1. Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue

Clap those hands and stomp those feet at one of this beloved Disney dinner show, Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue.

This rootin’ tootin’ dining experience boasts toe-tapping musical performances from the Pioneer Players and a scrumptious all-you-care-to-enjoy feast! We highly recommend bringing an appetite and making reservations in advance.

Did you know that Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue is the longest-running live show at Disney World? This historic experience is a beloved tradition at Fort and will be celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2024.

2. Tri-Circle D Ranch 

Over 90 horses from all around the Disney World theme parks call Fort Wilderness home!

Tri-Circle-D Ranch has various types of horses, from Cinderella’s elegant ponies to the Headless Horseman’s trusty steed. Everyone can tour parts of the Settlement area barn daily (free of charge), allowing plenty of time for guests to learn more about these beautiful animals from our knowledgeable Cast Members.

Ready to giddy up and go? Take a horseback riding adventure along one of many rustic riding trails, or embark on a carriage ride with the whole family. There is something for animal lovers of all ages. Reservations are recommended and can be made online or via the My Disney Experience app. Pony rides and wagon rides are only available on a walk-in basis.

3. Outdoor Recreational Activities

There’s no better way to immerse in the wilderness than with one of the many outdoor activities available.

Embark on a paddle adventure to explore the many scenic waterways and streams with kayak and canoe rentals, or reel in some fun and try a hand at bass fishing with a guided catch-and-release outing held year-round for guests of all ages.

Suppose guests are looking for something a little less aquatic. In that case, they can jog through the lush meadows and cypress groves or embrace their inner Robin Hood during the Fort Wilderness Archery Experience. We highly recommend making reservations ahead of time for this family-friendly archery class.

Beyond these activities, there are also playgrounds, pools, and sports facilities – a little something for everyone to create their own adventure!

4. Chip ‘n’ Dale’s Campfire Sing-Along

Looking for s’more fun? Join everyone’s favorite chipmunks, Chip ‘n’ Dale, and a singing cowboy for an evening of country songs, roasted marshmallows, and a Disney movie under the stars at Chip’ n’ Dale’s Campfire Sing-Along. This nightly celebration is a great way to enjoy some fresh air with family after a day of play in the theme parks* – plus it is included for all guests staying at the resort.

Guests can purchase a s’mores kit from the Chuckwagon Snack Bar or bring their own marshmallows and sticks.
