Hi Cate! Welcome to planDisney.
Get ready for your wilderness escape at
Disney's Wilderness Lodge. This nature lovers property features pine forest, nature trails, totem poles, and so much more. One of my favorite spots is
Geyser Point Bar and Grill. I recommend you grab a comfy seat overlooking the water to indulge in the Bison Burger with a craft beer.
I just spoke with a Cast Member who informed me at this time, Christmas decorations are up with the exception of the large Christmas tree. While she could not confirm a definite date, she was pretty confident by Thanksgiving weekend it should be standing tall. Unfortunately, you may not see the tree this weekend. But "wish upon a star" and just maybe the elves will be working early.
I do however recommend you make time to head on over via the
water taxi to
Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa where the gingerbread house is on display and open for business. I have heard through my planDisney pals that
Disney's Contemporary Resort is working on finishing up their gingerbread display as well. Disney Resorts Collection hotel hopping during the holidays is must see for me.
Keeping it Magical,
Cindy
