Construction work appears to be wrapping up as proposed end date looms for the Copper Creek Villas & Cabins at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge refurbishment project.
Wilderness Lodge Construction
It was announced in November of 2024, that the Copper Creek Villas & Cabins at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge would undergo refurbishment from mid-May 2025 to September 2025.
Although scaffolding and crew members are still present near the entrance to this section of the resort, work appears to be wrapping up.
On our recent visit, the crew looked to be focused mainly on the roof. You can see the wood is covered with plastic and painter’s tape to protect the surface.
In our last update, this sidewalk area had reopened for guest use, with green barriers and some equipment placed up against the building. With a small amount of scaffolding remaining, it looks like crew members have temporarily blocked the path again for guest safety.
Inside, the scrim on the windows has been replaced with fogged decals featuring forest trees, leaning into the wilderness theming of the resort. The exterior area is still closed off from guest access.
The new window clings expand across all of the windows, and this section of doors remains closed as well.
The terrace remains closed, with the majority of scaffolding and work left to complete. 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.”
The scaffolding stretches to the top of the resort and can be seen from the interior. A crew member stood on one level, watching over the ongoing work.
WDWNT will continue to monitor the progress at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge.
