Hi Faith, and welcome to planDisney!
Wilderness Lodge is such a relaxing Pacific Northwest-inspired oasis, with ducks swimming during the day and crickets chirping at night. And with Magic Kingdom just a short boat ride away, it doesn’t get any more magical than that!
With Christmas coming up in just a few days, I’d be happy to help you track down that cozy Wilderness Lodge robe. Unfortunately, much of the merchandise found at Disney World isn’t available to order from home. But I totally understand not having the opportunity to stealthily buy a present for someone else on the trip.
So, let’s chat about a few possible options. Some merchandise can be found on the
Disney Store website, but it’s less common to find resort hotel-specific items there (and I don’t currently see the Wilderness Lodge robe there). However, when you do find something sold in both places, that can be a great way to save room in your luggage on the way home! Also, if you’re a
Disney Vacation Club Member, you can find exclusive, customizable
Copper Creek and
Boulder Ridge Villas merchandise on the Disney Store website.
Another option would be to try calling or emailing
Merchandise Guest Services. Usually, they only handle inquiries about items that were already purchased at Disney World, but it wouldn’t hurt to check, just in case.
And, finally, you might have luck looking at websites that sell secondhand items. Sometimes when I regretted not buying something, I was able to find it online through one of those websites.
One more thing I wanted to mention before I go. While you’re counting down the days until your next Disney trip, don't forget about the
Play Disney Parks app. There are lots of fun games for the parks (which can be great to pass the time while you're waiting in line), but you can also find games to play at home. When you open the app, scroll through the icons at the top until you see Anytime Play. There's Disney Parks Trivia and games themed after different attractions, like Andy’s Boardgame Blast! and Rocket Race.
I’m wishing on a star that you can get a hold of one of those plush Wilderness Lodge robes! And if you have any other questions before your next visit, you’re always welcome back at planDisney.
