In a significant update regarding the reservation process for The Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort, DVC members are now able to book the new resort up to 7 months in advance. This development opens the door for DVC members that did not purchase new points at the resort, and don’t want to use cash to make a reservation there. Here’s what you need to know about the booking process.

Reservation Window Opens for DVC Members

Starting April 23, 2024, Disney Vacation Club members who do not own points specifically in The Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort will have the opportunity to book stays using eligible points. This adjustment to the booking process is aligned with the DVC’s standard 7-month booking window policy, providing greater flexibility and access to this unique lodging option.

It’s important to note that availability may be limited initially, as only 30 cabins have been declared into the resort’s trust program at this stage. The remainder of the 330+ cabins will continue to be available for rental to cash guests by Disney directly, with the potential for more units to be added to the DVC inventory as sales progress.

Booking Process

Reservations can be made starting at 8:00 AM Eastern Time via the DVC members-only website. Additionally, DVC Member Services will offer assistance with bookings starting at 9:00 AM daily. However, it is crucial to understand that resale points are not eligible for use in booking stays at The Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort.

Resale Restrictions: DVC resale purchase made on or after January 19, 2019 will exclusively have booking privileges within the 14 original resorts in the DVC resort network. These contracts will not have the ability to be used for stays at Disney’s Riviera Resort, The Villas at Disneyland Hotel, The Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort, and potentially other upcoming properties within the DVC system.

Conclusion

This update represents an exciting opportunity for eligible Disney Vacation Club members to experience the rustic charm and serene ambiance of The Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort. With the opening of the reservation window, members are encouraged to plan ahead and take advantage of this unique opportunity to create unforgettable memories at Walt Disney World.

As always, stay tuned to the DVC Shop blog for all the latest updates from inside the theme parks and around Disney Vacation Club resorts.
