We Have a HUGE Update About This Disney World Hotel Pool

Things are super busy in Disney World right now, with tons of construction happening in the parks and at Disney World hotels.

Speaking of hotels, one construction project Disney is working on is the expansion of the Meadow Swimmin’ Pool area at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground. Well, we now know when that refurbished pool will be completed.

According to the Disney World website, the Meadow Swimmin’ Pool expansion will be completed in mid-2026. That means if you have a summer trip planned with a stay at Fort Wilderness, you could have a chance to check out what Disney has updated.

Note that the pool has remained open during this time, although Disney has warned guests that they may see or hear construction during daytime hours.

The expansion will double the area of the current pool and will feature a tennis court, two pickleball courts, and a new zero-entry pool and deck area. So they’re even adding a new pool for Fort Wilderness guests to enjoy. So you’ll be able to check it out sometime in mid-2026, and we couldn’t be more excited. This is something Fort Wilderness has needed because the resort can hold a lot of guests. It also expands the kind of activities you can do at the massive resort.

Disney’s Fort Wilderness also recently underwent a bit of a lobby refurbishment, which started in October. Most of that work should be mostly complete by now.

We’ll keep an eye out for other construction updates in Disney World, so check back with AllEars again soon for more.
