This Disney deluxe class resort is located in the Magic Kingdom area, between the Contemporary resort and Fort Wilderness. The “theme” of this resort is that of a National Park, as the entire resort has a lodge feel that captures the spirit of the American West in the early 1900’s. The parking area is conveniently located in front of the lobby area of the hotel and is within comfortable walking distance to the hotel.

The lobby itself is very breathtaking as its architecture includes massive log columns and totem poles. A large fireplace in the lobby welcomes you with comfortable rocking chairs, as a babbling stream runs into the lobby, creating a very peaceful mood.
