    Is there a charge for overnight parking for the wilderness lodge while we are staying there for a week? I am an Associate DVC member

    Howdy, Marianna!

    Welcome to planDisney. Thank you so much for moseying by with your question. How exciting that you are staying at Disney's Wilderness Lodge Resort during the merriest time of the year. As my Home Resort for the last 22 years, I love the down-home feeling of this Resort that reminds me of a western National Park lodge.  But when it is decorated for the holidays, it is the most magical stay on earth.

    Marianna, whether you are parking your carriage, your horse, or your wagon, overnight self-parking is complimentary to Guests staying at Disney Resort hotels at Walt Disney World Resort.  This is enough to shout "yeehaw!" It's one of the benefits of staying at Disney Resort Hotels.  Additionally, you can enjoy complimentary transportation within the Walt Disney World Resort property, so you can put away your keys and let Mickey and friends take over. Just kick up your boots and enjoy the ride.  

    Now, one tip I like to recommend to everyone staying at Disney's Wilderness Lodge is to be sure to plan for at least one breakfast at Whispering Canyon Cafe.  I'll be honest - there's nothing quiet about this restaurant, especially if you ask for ketchup. But it sure is a rip-roaring good time, and it offers delicious grub for when that breakfast bell rings. I like the steel-cut oatmeal or the all-you-care-to-eat breakfast skillets, and the pressed coffee pot, to start my day.  It sure will put some extra giddy-up in your step to start your day.  

    I hope this helps you, Marianna! If you have any further questions, giddy-up back here, and I'll be sure to lasso you up an answer. After all, you've got a friend in me.

    Reach for the sky!
