Fourth A-Frame Rises at Disney Lakeshore Lodge as Construction Progresses on New DVC Resort
Bay Lake is buzzing with activity again as construction continues on Disney Lakeshore Lodge, the next Disney Vacation Club resort rising from the former site of River Country. The latest update? A fourth A-frame structure has officially gone vertical, and more progress is visible across the entire site.

Positioned between the main lodge and Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort, these A-frames are expected to house standalone cabin accommodations. Though Disney Lakeshore Lodge is a new name, the overall footprint and style appear to carry over much of the original design and layout planned for Reflections – A Disney Lakeside Lodge, which was announced in 2018 but paused during the pandemic.
The resort’s multi-story main building is quickly taking shape. The first floor has been wrapped in structural sheathing, and other sections now sport the familiar yellow air-and-water barrier wrap. In areas where the barrier has been installed for some time, black weatherproof cladding is being added, signaling the next step in sealing the structure.
Other notable milestones include:
- Temporary railings have been installed on some balconies, with permanent versions coming later.
- Sliding glass doors are now framed or installed in several wings of the building.
- Work has begun on the ninth floor, with the resort expected to top out at ten stories.
- Interior framing is visible through open windows on multiple floors.

Disney has confirmed that Lakeshore Lodge will carry on the original artistic theme of Reflections — celebrating the beauty of nature and how it has inspired Disney storytelling. Think tranquil lakeside vibes, natural textures, and a color palette rooted in earth tones and forest greens — all infused with that signature DVC flair.
The resort is currently scheduled to open in 2027, and while the full list of amenities has yet to be revealed, Disney promises it will be an immersive, nature-inspired retreat — perfectly positioned between Fort Wilderness and Wilderness Lodge, rounding out what could become a full-blown rustic resort corridor on Bay Lake.
