The latest overhead images reveal significant progress in the heart of the resort where the massive recreation courtyard, known as The Wetlands, is taking shape. While there’s still plenty of work ahead, guests can now clearly make out the winding layout of the future lazy river, the footprint of the oversized splash pad, and surrounding pool areas that will become the centerpiece of the new Disney Vacation Club resort.
The lazy river’s curving path is now easily recognizable, wrapping through the courtyard as crews continue work on the surrounding landscaping, walkways, and recreation spaces. Nearby, the splash pad area has also become much more defined, with concrete work progressing rapidly. As construction continues, these spaces are beginning to resemble the concept art Disney previously released, giving fans a better idea of how the resort will eventually come together.
The resort buildings themselves have also made impressive progress, with much of the exterior structure complete and roofing installed across large portions of the property. Construction activity remains busy throughout the site, with crews continuing work on guest room wings, outdoor amenities, and infrastructure around the resort.
Disney Lakeshore Lodge is expected to bring a nature-inspired retreat to the former River Country site along Bay Lake. Once complete, The Wetlands promises to be one of the resort’s standout features, offering guests a relaxing lazy river, an expansive splash play area, and beautiful waterfront recreation spaces that fit perfectly with the resort’s outdoor theme.
