Wilderness Lodge Pool Update

Check out our latest update.

In late September, Walt Disney World announced that it would be refurbishing Silver Spring Pool at Wilderness Lodge and that the refurbishment period would last through late November. While it was uncertain if major changes were taking place to the actual setup or if it was just repairs that required removal of the pool deck, construction began and is slated to end on November 28. Here’s what’s going on.

This is what the pool looked like previously.

Currently, the entirety of the main pool deck has been ripped up.

Pipelines have been replaced and possibly added and while a great deal of concrete has been removed, there appears to be no change to, for instance, a zero entry addition.

The water slide remains in tact and the waterfall is also untouched. The part of the creek that runs past the waterfall is dry and the railings have been removed from the walkway bridge.

The good news is that the upper part of the waterway remains pristine and still looks lovely from the lobby. We’ll keep you posted as changes occur.
