Overview

Copper Creek is located at Wilderness Lodge, meaning the resort is within walking distance to both Wilderness Lodge and Boulder Ridge Villas at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge. There is much more to explore here compared to your typical Disney resort.

All three resorts share the same dining and transportation options, but unlike many other Disney hotels, Copper Creek takes camping to a whole other level thanks to its Deluxe Studios and 26 waterfront Cabins with wraparound porches.

Copper Creek does cost more, but if you’re looking for a more luxurious stay with accommodations that have a kitchen, washer and dryer, and more, then this might be your best option.

Here’s everything you need to know.

Rooms And Bathrooms

Copper Creek has a variety of room offerings. You can choose from two Deluxe Studios, three types of Villas, or one type of Cabin.

You can even sleep up to 12 people, depending on the type of room you book. There are room layouts below, if you’d like to check them out.

There are, of course, the standard amenities, including a hairdryer, TV, free WiFi, a coffee maker, telephone, in-room safe, and an iron and ironing board. There are also a range of views, including the pool, courtyard, woodlands, Bay Lake, Boulder Ridge, or Wilderness Lodge.

The rooms also have both standard and USB outlets scattered around, with some near the beds and TV stands. Better yet, there is even space underneath the beds for storing luggage and whatever else you need to get out of the way.
