We now have word on when these Disney World refurbishments will end

We got exclusive word on when these refurbishments will end!

Refurbishments

Refurbishment is a dreaded word for Disney fans who will soon be visiting Disney Parks. In theory, we all understand that refurbishments are a necessary part of keeping the parks and resorts magical.

Attractions, restaurants, and amenities all close from time to time in order to keep operations running smoothly. It’s important to stay up to date on these refurbishments for your upcoming trip. You never know what may be closing!

Fort Wilderness Refurbishments

If you have been at Fort Wilderness lately, you know the area at the marina is undergoing a lot of refurbishment work. Trail’s End is converting into a quick-service location, and Crockett’s Tavern and P & J’s Southern Takeout are closed.

Don’t worry though! P & J’s has a mobile order pick up spot, and Hoop Dee Doo Musical Revue is still open! However, things are kind of messy for the time being.

Trail’s End Restaurant is a popular dining location at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort. Inside Trail’s End, you’ll find beamed ceilings, split-log walls, mounted animals and a stove in a rustic, cozy setting. Here, you’ll feel like you’ve been transported back to the frontier days in a country setting.

Reopening

Disney has not released an official reopening date for these locations other than “summer 2023.” However, Cast Members at Fort Wilderness told us these refurbishments are expected to be complete by the end of this month, July 2023!

We are definitely excited to hear this news! Right now, dining options at The Fort are a bit limited. There are quick-service options at the Meadows Pool and various food trucks in the marina area. Plus, you can still get food from P & J’s!

Pirate tip: P & J’s mobile order pick up is located around the corner of Crockett’s Tavern!
