New Virtual Tour of the DVC Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort

Hey there, Disney Vacation Club (DVC) Members! Are you ready to sneak a peek into the newest DVC resort? With the grand unveiling of the all-new DVC Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort set for July 1, 2024, there’s an exclusive opportunity that’s just too magical to miss. And guess what? You don’t even need to leave your couch! Let’s dive into the new virtual tour of the DVC cabins that’s as close to stepping inside as you can get without being there in person.

The Virtual Magic Begins

Before the ribbon-cutting ceremony and the first guests stepping foot into these stunning cabins, DVC is offering an interactive virtual tour of one of the cabin models. This isn’t just any tour; it’s a cutting-edge experience built using a Matterport Camera and 3D technology. For those who might not be familiar, Matterport is the wizard behind the curtain when it comes to creating immersive 3D virtual tours of physical spaces. It bridges the gap between the physical and digital worlds, allowing us to explore spaces as if we were there, moving from room to room with just a click.

Why the Virtual Tour?

Sales for these cabins started a bit slower than expected. The slow start could be contributed to a variety reasons, with one being the higher Annual Dues for the resort. The other could be the absence of a physical model room for guests to explore at Walt Disney World contributed to the hesitation. But fear not! DVC has waved its magic wand and created this online virtual tour to bring the cabins to life for potential buyers and curious onlookers alike.

Step Inside Virtually

The virtual tour is a game-changer. It allows us to explore nearly every nook and cranny of the updated cabins. For the first time, we get a clear view of the bathroom amenities and layout (spoiler alert: there’s a sleek stand-up shower, but no bathtub). The tour showcases a full wall of windows along the front of the unit, flooding the space with natural light and offering views of the surrounding wilderness. Don’t miss the storage cubbies in the bedroom, perfect for tucking away your gear after a day at the parks. And for the art lovers, you can zoom in on the custom artwork adorning the walls, adding that special Disney touch.

Making Reservations

If this virtual tour has you dreaming of your next Disney vacation, here’s what you need to know about making it a reality. Points are currently on sale for the Cabins, and early buyers and cash guests can already make reservations at the resort. DVC members with points at other resorts will have their chance starting April 23, 2024, keeping in mind the 7-month window for reservations.

The Countdown Begins

The anticipation is building as the first updated cabins are set to welcome guests starting July 1, 2024. Whether you’re a long-time DVC member or considering your first Disney vacation club purchase, this virtual tour of the DVC Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort offers a glimpse into what promises to be a magical addition to the Disney resort family.

So, what are you waiting for? Dive into the virtual tour and start planning your next magical Disney vacation. Who knows? These cabins might just be the perfect backdrop for your family’s next adventure. And remember, even if the cabins are a bit of a wait, this virtual experience is ready to whisk you away to the heart of Disney’s wilderness today. Happy exploring!
