Does Disney’s Wilderness Lodge have a Playground? 2021

So you’re wondering if Disney World’s Wilderness Lodge resort has a playground?

Unfortunately, the answer is no. The Wilderness Lodge does not have a playground.

Keep in mind, the Disney’s Wilderness Lodge is different than Ft. Wilderness. And Ft. Wilderness does have a playground!

Things to do with Preschoolers at the Wilderness Lodge

Even though there’s not a playground, there are plenty of other ways to keep a preschooler or toddler entertained at Disney World’s Wilderness Lodge:

Swim in the pool or splash pad (resort guests only)
Watch the geyser erupt
Watch the waterfall
Walk to the boat dock
Look at the passing boats
Go on a boat ride (you don’t have to get off)
Walk around the outside of the resort – look at the plants, lizards, rocks etc. (and look for various animal tracks)
Walk around the inside of the resort – look at the various decorations and sights (totem poles, bridge, etc.)
Browse the gift shop
Eat a fun snack
People watch
Watch the Disney buses go by with the various characters on them
Make friends with other young kids
Take silly pictures

Note: There is a walking path to Ft. Wilderness (which has a playground and lots of great outdoor activities), but the walking path was closed for renovation when we were there in Jan/Feb 2021. There is also a boat (water taxi) that goes to Ft. Wilderness from Wilderness Lodge, but no guarantees it will be running! It wasn’t running on our Jan/Feb 2021 trips.
