Well, we’ve got a word of warning if you have plans to stay at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge.
Wilderness Lodge Boat Transportation
Now, there are a lot of benefits of staying at a Disney World property, but one of the best perks is the transportation that can take you to and from the parks and Disney Springs. However, you can’t always count on a specific mode of transportation to be available during your trips. If you happen to be visiting Disney’s Wilderness Lodge soon, you’ll find that one mode of transportation will be unavailable for a short time.
The boat dock at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge is undergoing some routine maintenance. We last saw the boat service to Magic Kingdom suspended from January 12th through January 30th. Well, Disney has plans to do even more maintenance at the boat dock, and it will be closed with boat transportation suspended from April 13th through May 1st.
The maintenance to the dock itself will last through late July 2026, but you should be able to use the boat transportation as of May 2nd. All subject to change, of course!

So if you were counting on taking that mode of transportation to Magic Kingdom, Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground, or Disney’s Contemporary Resort during that time, you’re just out of luck. However, you will still be able to get to your destination via alternative transportation, aka Disney buses. So you might not get the most SCENIC route to Magic Kingdom, but you’ll still be able to get there, and that’s what counts, right?
Wilderness Lodge Bus stop
Note that you cannot get direct bus transportation from Wilderness Lodge to the Contemporary, but you can take the bus to Magic Kingdom and hop on the Monorail to get to the Contemporary, so keep that in mind if you’ll be traveling between hotels.
We’ll keep an eye out for more closures in Disney World, so stay tuned to Magical Guides for more.
