In today's video we visit Wilderness Lodge at the Walt Disney World Resort. We visited during the Christmas season so we got to see all of the holiday decorations and the Christmas tree in the main lobby. We checked out the Mercantile gift shop for souvenirs and visited Whispering Canyon Cafe, Territory Lounge, Artist Pointe, and Roaring Forks within the main lobby building of the hotel. After that we ventured out onto the resort grounds to see the pools and recreation facilities. While doing so we stopped for lunch at Geyser Point bar and grill for some lunch. After lunch we ventured over to the Disney Vacation Club area of the resort to do some more exploring. We found the Carolwood room which showcases some of Walt Disney's personal collection of railroad cars. Finally we ended up at the very end of the property where we found a group of deer enjoying a mid afternoon snack. Join us tomorrow for another new video!

I LOVE RESORT TOURS

@stevehansen4476 5 лет назад

Me too! We spent a day going to the different Hotels. Knew all the secrets thanks to Tim Tracker!

@alyssaa3533 4 года назад

Love watching your guys older videos while waiting for your new content!!!! 👍🏼👍🏼

@d.redrobinphillips9959 6 лет назад

Thank you Tim. I just love the Wilderness. The deer were amazing. The Lodge has grown so much since I was there.

@GypsyHeart2012 6 лет назад

The Potato might be for...French Fries or Baked.

@momokoblue8032 6 лет назад

They seemed to be large baker potatoes. Good for microwaving.

@tcraigg4563 6 лет назад

Or since the cabins have grills in front, you can wrap them and grill them.

@jasonwebb5964 5 лет назад

Or mashed potatoes, or home fries, or potato chips, or steak fries, or any of the million other things you can do with a potato.

@displaycollector6611 6 лет назад

I think that animal you saw in the water was swimming to the "Otter" side of the lake.

@martaobrien4966 6 лет назад

In my opinion, best hotel at disney!!

@carole4 6 лет назад

The decorated evergreen "hanging thing" is a Christmas "swag"! Wilderness Lodge has my very favorite decorations!

@Binzany 6 лет назад

If you've never had a potato in a fire pit you have not lived.. slice put in butter wrap in aluminum foil chuck it in and heaven 15min later.

@jakemoore4165 6 лет назад

Whispering Canyon is my favorite restaurant in all of Disney. Great food and the waiters are hilarious.

@ScubaCat3 6 лет назад

Thanks for the tour, Tim! A little bit of information since the remodel: WIlderness Lodge now is actually the hotel plus two separate DVC "properties" (declared as completely separate Condo Associations). The original one, formerly called "villas at Wilderness Lodge" has been renamed "Boulder Ridge Villas" and is what you referred to as 'the DVC building'. The new one they're currently selling is called "Copper Creek Villas" and consists of half of the main building which has been remodeled into DVC units plus all the cabins. Also, that TV with info at Geyser point is actually the hotel info channel in every disney room. :) There's a youtuber named "ResortTV1" which has recorded hours of it so you can play it at home and pretend you're in a disney room. haha. Have a great holiday, Merry Xmas, and Happy New Year!

@grandmasterB77 6 лет назад

ScubaCat3 that’s right - we’re staying in the new Cooper Creek Villas in the southeast(?) wing of the main lodge in a couple of weeks

@bobbafett1971 6 лет назад

Yeah. And totally annoying. Dvc telling me a new property opened. It's vwl. Can't re name and claim new. My home resort is akl. You can sell to public with a new name and claim new time share....

Just the best at Christmas.

@mickimouse6573 6 лет назад

Artists Point is my favorite out of the restaurants I’ve been too. I had the cheese platter appetizer, the filet for my entree and the BERRY COBBLER. It’s the greatest.

@picabritanica2811 6 лет назад

I took my parents to Artist Point for their 25th wedding anniversary at the start of the year. Honestly one of the best meals I've ever eaten. I'm so glad I got to see the rest of this resort at last, love these tours so much. Thanks Trackers. 💜

@FireCracker3240 6 лет назад

Great video. I've said it before, I'll say it again... I LOVE resort tours. This is a beautiful, rustic resort. I think those new cottages! They are absolutely GORGEOUS, and so spacious. So much land between them, and I love the number posts outside. I'm guessing the potatoes you saw at the mini grocers could be baked on those grills outside the cottages.

@Eszra 6 лет назад

Wow the theming at Wilderness Lodge is amazing, they have actually wildlife!

@Depplover4good 3 года назад

Watching this video makes me sad, my husband and I went to Disney world during christmas right before the pandemic. I feel like the pandemic has taken so much joy and energy out of me and I miss just normal things. I miss my disney world before all this crap.

@beckypiel8795 5 лет назад

Cabins look awesome

@melanielevoy2076 6 лет назад

Anyone else think Tim should do voiceovers? I think his voice is so cool.

@margaretbrown5683 3 года назад

Just came back from an awesome week in a CC studio. Loved that resort!

@darkridearts 6 лет назад

those cabins are in no way shape or form worth Three Thousand United States Dollars per night.

@tylerkinser6908 6 лет назад

Fun Fact: the trail at 22:20 leads all the way to the now abandoned River Country Second Fun Fact: last time I rode my bike down that trail there was a random chicken coop there

@bobbafett1971 6 лет назад

Not random. I believe they are used for pest control. Like wild cats too.

@LazySpartan 6 лет назад

When I walked down there I knew what I was getting into, saw a few cool things then got to the chicken coop and turned around, and as I was exiting that area a Disney Security SUV pulled up and I BS'd my way out of just having walked down the road 😂 So if anyone is planning to go see, be warned they patrol the road.

@anitaford6559 6 лет назад

Nice. We see deer every year just riding around on Disney property.

@JoshRogers117 6 лет назад

Hey Tim, we just left Wilderness Lodge after staying in WDW for 10 days. Wanted to clarify some of your confusion. Wilderness lodge essentially has 3 parts. There's the regular hotel portion and 2 separate DVC parts within the whole resort itself. The Boulder Ridge Villas are the separate building with the different aesthetic that you kept referring to as the DVC building. Then there are the Copper Creek Villas which are inside of the main building. The Boulder Ridge villas used to be the only DVC villas on property and were just called the villas at wilderness lodge, but they were renamed when Copper Creek opened this past July to distinguish between the two. Copper Creek isn't a new construction but rather just a complete remodel of half of the main building. The Cascade Cabins are part of Copper Creek

@ArvidBux 6 лет назад

You are right on the red circle. Have seen them across multiple Disney resorts. Took me a night at Newport Bay Club at Disneyland Paris, looking from the bar at those windows before I figured it out.

@karendixon401 5 лет назад

In the reeds by the boat dock is where I saw an alligator! But this is my favorite resort.. especially at Christmas. The Artist Pointe menu has or had when I was there cedar plank cooked salmon..very good.

@amcmillan673 6 лет назад

Lmao I love how confused you are by the potatoes 🥔 I'm just assuming it's so they can make a baked potato or something like that 🤷‍♀️

@scotthouston4714 6 лет назад

How about maybe they are also used to make french fries. Great now I want some french fries. :)

@agon1963 6 лет назад

Love Disney's attention to detail.

@chrislong5416 5 лет назад

"Taters, boil em, mash em, stick em in a stew." Baked is good. We used to slice them, cover them in butter, and put them on a grill. We made 'burgers in armour' in the scouts. (hamburger, potatoes and onion wrapped in foil on the campfire.)

@wakeywarrior 4 года назад

Went over from BLT one night at Xmas on the boat. This resort is so atmospheric at night it is crazy, especially at Christmas. I am booking for this next Christmas.

You know, @TheTimTracker, I love your videos so much! I live at the other side of the world and it is not possible for me at this moment to visit the Disney World, but I really have the feeling that I´ve been there thanks to your videos. Please, please, please don´t even think about stopping making them! They always brighten up my day, calm me down and make me happy. Thank you for your work!

We stayed at Wilderness Lodge, One Bedroom Room, in July 2020, and it was the best Resort or Hotel we have ever gone to. We have stayed in different kinds of Resorts and Hotels over the past 30 years, and Disney Wilderness Lodge is the best. We stayed a whole week in July 2020, and plan to stay there again in 2022. It's expensive but worth the money. All the Food places are great food, delicious, and the view inside the lobby and outside is Gorgeous. I can't wait to go back there again. Also, they are really nice to Service Dogs too. I love how nice the staff is, even at late hours, they are nice. We had car trouble on the way and didn't get to Resort until after 10:30 pm, and they were the sweetest Staff to us. Some staff at other hotels will give that uhhh, why are you late looks and be kind of rude. However, at Wilderness Lodge, they were very nice, helpful , and made sure that we found our room on the 5th floor safely. We plan to go for a 2 week staycation, in 2022. Also, go to all 4 Disney Parks again as well. Anyway, if you have the money, I highly recommend Disney Cooper Creek Villas Wilderness Lodge in Florida. It's a vacation all in one place, food, great service, great rooms, and the most gorgeous views inside and outside. Take Care all, and be Safe, and wear a mask in public.

@JessicaLynnOriginalStudios 6 лет назад

I love the Wilderness Lodge it is our favorite hotel of ALL TIME. I stayed there on my honeymoon for 9nts/10 days and it was so magical. Everytime we go there it REALLY feels like our home.

@franciscoechevarria174 4 года назад

JessicaLynnOriginal that's also my favorite Disney Hotel from all their properties. The first time I went there was back in 2005 a few weeks before Christmas and O was at awe! Their lobby is breathtaking, the pool, the rooms, the restaurants, the Geyser shoots water every hour of the hour which I got to see. I went back in 2013 and got to see the light show in the middle of the lake We took the ferry boat to Fort Wilderness Lodge, also beautiful and we to see a Disney movie there at a outside movie theater while you can even roast marshmallows while watching a Disney movie, we went on a horse wagon ride through the back trails, ate out there and did some serious shopping at both gift shops. There's so much to do out there and at night you look at the hotel from the back by the pool and it's breathtaking! I could spend out there easily two weeks more. Stay safe.

@sherisweitzer7982 6 лет назад

I know you guys like "firsts". You should do the walk from the Wilderness Lodge over to Ft. Wilderness. It's a fun walk with lots of wildlife and it is super fun in October or December because of all the campsites that decorate for those holidays. You have to check it out!!! Love your videos :)

@JessicaLynnOriginalStudios 6 лет назад

The Wilderness Lodge has those DVC rooms that you can buy and cook your own food. Not all the rooms. Love this channel.

@kellioh7 6 лет назад

Easy to microwave a potato for a quick baked potato.

@paigeb.7529 6 лет назад

Hi There! I just subscribed. I enjoyed this video very much. My son and I are in it. We stayed at our Boulder Ridge Villa and checked out 12/24. You caught us on a pool day, walking past the new Salon By The Springs, while you were heading to the Geyser Point Lounge. I was smiling because I recognized you as a RU-vidr. My son looked you up that day, he was surprised I knew about any RU-vid vloggers 😂. The Boulder Ridge Villas opened in 2000, and the Copper Creek Cabins and Villas are brand new. The reason you didn't see the other Copper Creek villas is because they are located on one side of the main building. They renovated hotel rooms into studios, one and two bedroom villas. Thanks for a great video. I can't wait to show my son we made the cut! Looking forward to seeing more of your adventures. Happy new year!

@JohnTodd916 6 лет назад

Geyser Pointe is easily one of our favorite places at the resort. So much fun to have dinner while the water parade goes by.

@kimt8162 6 лет назад

That's nice you stopped by the pin board. We are pin traders. We trade for a pin and then try to remember which pin we got where. It's fun. Wilderness Lodge I think is probably my favorite one---even though we've never stayed there--too pricey for us.

@sunnyskies4628 6 лет назад

LOVING THIS! THANKS GUYS! MERRY EARLY CHRISTMAS WISHES GOING YOUR WAY!

@jackpast 6 лет назад

Next time take the trail to Fort Wilderness. You'll see plenty of deer and perhaps an armadillo!

The pin that Tim pointed out is a badge from a rock climbing attraction. In DCA

@coreyhopkins1661 4 года назад

At fireworks time you can see the fireworks from Geyser Point if you're standing just outside the bar. We loved our view for Happily Ever After on our trip in July.

@steveryan4799 6 лет назад

WOW! $2000 USD per night in the cabins by Bay Lake! Insane Disney

@DAnimal316xMGDx 6 лет назад

Love the video. Always love what you vlog. The potatoes can be sliced thinly, Fried in a skillet and makes homemade chips. In addition the foliage has to be cut back every so often to let New grow, otherwise it takes over and becomes one big mass. Or if some or dying, need to cut down so doesn’t spread if caused by fungus or disease.

@SteveAndAlexBuild 6 лет назад

Loved seeing Tim tracker tracking a bison 😂 maybe those massage (torture)chairs came from Disney Quest when they levelled it 🕹🔨

@forgetmeplease1414 6 лет назад

Every time we went, my dad took us to the Fort Wilderness cabins (not the new ones)... we went in 2015 and took my kids too... he loves it because you can park your vehicle right outside, its private, has a kitchen and for the price of a hotel room, we get all of that... plus it is just that boat ride to the magic Kingdom. Had no idea there was a mini grocery store in the lodge. We always stocked up on basics at a store in Orlando then had a dining plan too so eating was easy. Seriously don't think I'll get the dining plan tho... its over a $1,000 for a decent package.

@juanesebuitrago4040 6 лет назад

Nice one! I think people might buy those potatoes to bake or grill when they are grilling out in the picnic area. I really thought that scary bear had you!!

@w.e.n8030 6 лет назад

Great resort. If money were no object I would build a house with that theme. Lucky spying those deer. Merry Christmas ....

@eddunaway5569 6 лет назад

☺️😎 the wilderness Lodge is way too cool looks like fun

@scotthouston4714 6 лет назад

What they forgot to tell you is that they have a catch and release rule. So you can fish but can't keep the fish. Back in May of 2015.. I did see someone fishing in Fort Wilderness. I have no idea if they caught anything.

@beckypiel8795 5 лет назад

Wow...this is beautiful!

@nancycruz2343 4 года назад

@stever920 6 лет назад

@HeidiSKulesh 6 лет назад

Catching up. LOVE when you do these resorts tours! Took one of the best naps in my life on a couch in the Carrolwood Railroad Room while I was staying DVC/waiting for my laundry. Stayed n a studio there overlooking the Sturdy Branches Gym in about 2008 or so. LOVED it! Found the regular room at WL (when I stayed there in I think 2000) to be small, dark. Not worth teh price at all.

@donernst6680 6 лет назад

We just became DVC members a couple of months ago and will be at Cooper Creek next October. If you haven't been inside a room by then, you're welcome to take a room tour then. Thanks for the great videos.

@avajames120 4 года назад

I stayed here once when I was a little kid and it has been one of my favorites since. Hoping to stay in the cabins for 3 days sometime during the year of the 50th anniversary of Magic Kingdom.

Wow

@davekimball3610 6 лет назад

Tim, if you had turned right at 25:48 and walked back down toward Geyser Point, at the end of the main building on your left, you'd see the bison topiary. It was gone for a while, and though it is no longer out front, it was brought back to the property. You walked around everywhere, except there.

@derekwitteck989 6 лет назад

Great video Tim! It was great to meet you at Wilderness Lodge. My wife and I really appreciate you taking the time to speak with us!

@carmenhogue4873 6 лет назад

@robstravelsadventures 6 лет назад

Great resort tour video Tim. The boat ride from Magic Kingdom to Wilderness is nice as you go under the Monorail and right past Contemporary resort and then near Discovery Island before arriving at Wilderness. It is fun to go over the boat bridge (?) near Contemporary too. I wonder how much of the new cabin/DVC construction removed the little reminants left of the old Wilderness Railroad (Stream train ride that went through the resort). Too bad they could not keep that train ride since the DVC lobby was train themed, it would have fit the theming well.

@scotthouston4714 6 лет назад

Well I learned that boat bridge is actually called a Water Bridge. I learned that from a Castmember that was telling us interesting facts on the way to the Magic Kingdom.

@robstravelsadventures 6 лет назад

I knew I was close, but not quite right with the name as it has been about seven years since I went on that Water Bridge. Thanks for the correct info.

@scotthouston4714 6 лет назад

Your welcome. It is very interesting to learn new stuff about WDW. Fort Wilderness has a Segway tour. It is called the Wilderness Backtrail Adventure. It cost 90 dollars plus tax and only lasts 2 hours. With a safety video and then training and practicing on the segway. Which takes about 30 minutes total. The group I was in was asked this trivia question, What is Donald Duck's middle name? Oh I almost forgot that you need to make reservations for the segway tour.

@katiep349 6 лет назад

It's called a baked potato, Tim. Haha! I would buy that single potato for lunch! Take a look at your microwaves, they all have a 'potato' setting.

@barbsmith7755 5 лет назад

We have been DVC members at Boulder Ridge since 2002. We absolutely love the resort. To clarify, Disney took part of Wilderness Lodge and converted former rooms into new DVC villas. The new DVC portion is Copper Creek.

@michaeltaylor9977 6 лет назад

Whispering Canyon restaurant is a great place to eat. I've always gone in November. Fireplaces lite and everything. Gosh! I miss it. Lucky you didn't see alligators. LOL But, deer can "mess" you up too. There also make deer ticks (which are NOT animatronic)
