New Aerials Show Pool and Dock Construction Progress at Disney Lakeshore Lodge

New Aerial Photos Reveal Major Pool and Dock Progress at Disney Lakeshore Lodge

Disney’s newest Deluxe resort is making waves, literally. Fresh aerial photos from bioreconstruct offer an exciting new look at construction on Disney Lakeshore Lodge, where work on the resort’s main pool complex, waterfront dock, and surrounding grounds has made significant progress.

The latest images show the resort’s centerpiece pool taking shape, with the main swimming area now clearly defined. Concrete work appears largely complete, and crews have continued adding pathways, landscaping beds, and decorative elements throughout the expansive pool deck. Palm trees are now in place around portions of the complex, giving guests a better idea of how the finished resort will feel when it opens.

Nearby, the smaller recreation pool and splash play area have also made noticeable progress. Concrete basins have been formed, while themed landscaping and winding walkways continue to connect the various outdoor spaces that will eventually serve as the heart of the resort.

Along Bay Lake, construction has also advanced on the resort’s dock. The structure now extends farther into the water and will eventually provide boat transportation to Magic Kingdom, giving guests another convenient way to travel around Walt Disney World while enjoying scenic views across the lake.

Elsewhere around the property, exterior work continues across the resort’s massive hotel buildings. Roofing, exterior finishes, and balcony installations are progressing steadily, while crews remain busy throughout the central courtyard and arrival areas. The latest aerial views also showcase just how expansive the resort has become, with much of the overall structure now clearly recognizable.

Originally announced as Reflections: A Disney Lakeside Lodge before the project was paused in 2020, the resort was later reimagined as Disney Lakeshore Lodge. Once complete, it will become Walt Disney World’s newest Disney Vacation Club resort, blending waterfront recreation with nature-inspired theming along the shores of Bay Lake.

With the pools taking shape, landscaping expanding, and the dock reaching into Bay Lake, Disney Lakeshore Lodge is beginning to look less like a construction site and more like the relaxing waterfront retreat guests will soon enjoy.
