Refurbishment work continues on the exterior of the Copper Creek Villas at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge, with some paths reopened, others now closed, and several windows covered by plastic.
Copper Creek Villas Refurbishment

In November of 2024, it was announced that the Copper Creek Villas & Cabins at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge would undergo refurbishment from mid-May 2025 to September 2025.
Blocked Paths

Scaffolding that has been standing outside of the main building for the Copper Creek Villas section of the resort has been changing locations throughout our last few updates. However, some areas of the resort are still blocked off to guests.


Several guest rooms that were under refurbishment on our last visit now have curtains over the windows, indicating they may be close to completion.


Scaffolding has also been removed from this section of the exterior of the main building, although green barriers and some equipment still remain standing outside of the covered windows. The sidewalk area has reopened for guest use.
Covered Windows


Other areas of refurbishment, which have expanded to the patio at the back of the building, are still underway. Scaffolding and plastic window covers have added to the back area of this smaller lobby space.


Several A-frame signs placed in front of the doors read, “Please Pardon Our Pixie Dust – This Area is Being Refurbished for Your Future Enjoyment.” Compared to our last update, more white scrims have been added to windows and doors.

With a scheduled end of September 2025, only a couple of weeks remain for the planned refurbishment. Crews are hard at work trying to meet that deadline, though we will be interested to see if everything is completed by then.
WDWNT will continue to monitor the progress at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge.
