Copper Creek Villas & Cabins at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge is set to undergo a soft-goods refurbishment beginning in May 2025. Among the updates, Disney Vacation Club members and resort guests can look forward to the installation of pull-down sofa beds, which have become a staple in many DVC resorts. These upgrades aim to enhance the functionality, style, and comfort of guest accommodations.
Manufacturer Confirms Their Role
Less than a month ago, DVC Board of Directors could not verify if Murphy beds would be part of Copper Creek’s renovation project. However, a recent blog post from manufacturer Inovabed confirmed their collaboration with Disney’s Wilderness Lodge.
Inovabed is thrilled to announce our latest collaboration with one of the most magical destinations on earth—Walt Disney World. As Copper Creek Villas & Cabins at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge undergo renovations, we’re excited to showcase how our innovative Murphy Beds will elevate guest accommodations, blending comfort, convenience, style, and timeless Disney charm.
InovabedWhat Are Pull-Down Sofa Beds?
Pull-down sofa beds, often referred to as Murphy-style beds, are versatile sleeping options integrated into the living space. When folded, they double as a sleek couch, blending seamlessly into the room’s decor. Yet, with a simple pull, they convert into a full-size bed, providing a comfortable sleeping area without sacrificing space. Manufactured by the company, Inovabed, these beds were first introduced in 2019 at Disney’s Riviera Resort and have been incorporated into several DVC updates since.
Why Copper Creek Is Getting a Refresh
The upcoming refurbishment marks the first update to Copper Creek since its debut in July 2017. DVC resorts typically undergo soft goods refurbishments, which include updates to linens, wall treatments, flooring, window coverings, and upholstery, approximately every seven years following their opening. This refresh ensures that rooms maintain a high standard of quality and provide a fresh experience for guests.
Renovation Timeline
The soft goods refurbishment is slated to begin around May 2025. Early reports suggested work could be completed by September 2025. However, DVC executives later noted that the project could take up to a year to finish. While timelines may vary, guests can expect a phased update process to minimize disruptions.
What This Means for Guests
The addition of pull-down beds exemplifies Disney Vacation Club’s efforts to enhance guest accommodations. These beds provide flexibility, helping studios and villas comfortably accommodate families of varying sizes. For DVC members, updated features like these contribute to a better vacation experience and reflect Disney’s commitment to maintaining resort quality.
Final Thoughts
For those planning future stays at Copper Creek Villas & Cabins, the addition of pull-down sofa beds is an exciting change. Whether you’re a DVC member or a guest exploring this resort for the first time, these updates show Disney’s dedication to combining practicality with magic, ensuring everyone enjoys a comfortable and welcoming stay. This refurbishment is just the latest chapter in Disney Vacation Club’s continued effort to create memorable vacation experiences for its members.
