From one lodge to another, the next entry in my Disney Hotels series is the Wilderness Lodge (not to be confused with Fort Wilderness).
The Wilderness Lodge is designed to evoke the spirit of the American Northwest. It looks like a place one might stay while visiting Yellowstone or Yosemite National Parks. The Disney artists were also heavily influenced by the Native American tribes that roamed the Northwest and this influence is prominent in the lodge. The lodge also has a working geyser, like Old Faithful, and hot springs. Like the Animal Lodge, it also has a concierge level for those who wish to be extra pampered.
The Wilderness Lodge boasts two restaurants. The first is Artist Point, which specializes in dishes inspired by the American Northwest. For a family atmosphere, Whispering Canyon Cafe is noted for its funny wait staff and how they keep the children entertained. I once attended a character breakfast there with my family. That's when I fell in love with the hotel and swore I would stay there one day.
The Wilderness Lodge is connected to the Magic Kingdom and Fort Wilderness Resort by a ferry boat.
It is considered a deluxe hotel and part of the Magic Kingdom resorts.
