Florida Extends Construction Permit for Reflections – A Disney Lakeside Lodge till 2028

The construction permit for Reflections – A Disney Lakeside Lodge has been extended into 2028. This Disney Vacation Club resort was first announced in 2018 but was thought to be canceled during the Covid-19 pandemic.

The permit was originally filed in May 2018 and was set to expire in May 2023. This past summer, Disney requested an extension. The state of Florida granted the extension and the permit will now expire May of 2028.

Disney’s permit is for the “STOLport Site,” near the former Walt Disney World Airport. The new DVC resort was not going to be constructed there, but the area would act as a staging ground. There’s no confirmation that the resort plans will resume. The space could be used as a staging ground for other projects.


Reflections – A Disney Lakeside Lodge was being constructed on the former site of Disney’s River Country. The plans were for the deluxe resort to house more than 900 rooms including DVC villas. The new resort was to be nature-inspired and nestled in between the Wilderness Lodge and Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground.

Do you hope Disney resumes work on Reflections – A Disney Lakeside Lodge?
