Hey Howdy Hey Frances and welcome to planDisney!
Vacations to the Walt Disney World Resort are ones to cherish from the moment you arrive onsite to the moment you depart. Enjoying the resort is one of our favorite things to do on arrival day as well as departure date. Let's get to the details of your options.
Frances, I am happy to say that from your date of check-in through midnight on the day you check out, you are considered a Guest at Disney Resort hotels. You are more than welcome to enjoy the full recreational options the resort has to offer including the pools! I am also happy to say that very near each of the 2 pools at
Disney's Wilderness Lodge, you will find public restrooms with showers in them. You can feel free to enjoy the pools on the day of your departure and get cleaned up for your travels home.
One other super handy option you have is for your morning or afternoon at the pools, feel free to pack your necessities in a carry-on type bag and check most of your luggage with
Bell Services. They will be more than happy to hold your bags until you are ready to depart. We typically will pack a few ziploc storage bags or other waterproof bags to put our swimwear in and toss them into the other luggage after we swim and before we head to the airport. Who says travel days have to be stressful, right?
I hope you have a Magical time on your upcoming vacation. If you have any other questions, please feel free to let us know, we are always happy to help!
To Infinity and Beyond,
Nick
